Here is an expanded list of 10 men who have been linked to Jackie Maribe in relationships, based on various Kenyan media reports, gossip sites, and public speculation. I’ve included both confirmed past relationships and rumored ones (as the query specifies “whether rumors or real”). The information draws from leaked lists, interviews, and news articles, but note that Maribe has publicly denied some of these connections (e.g., with Sam Ogina and Dennis Itumbi). I’ve prioritized romantic or speculated links to reach 10, and where possible, I’ve included a relevant photo extracted via search for visual context.
Sam Ogina – A former Citizen TV journalist rumored to have been romantically involved with Maribe, though she has denied it, calling him just a friend and expressing frustration over the speculation.
Eric Omondi (Real/Confirmed) – The comedian had a serious past relationship with Maribe around 2012 when they met at Radio Africa. They’ve remained friends, and there were rumors he fathered her son Zahari, which both denied.
Oliver Mathenge (Real/Confirmed) – A journalist who dated Maribe for some time before they broke up; he later married someone else in 2015.
Joseph Irungu (Jowie) (Real/Confirmed) – Her ex-fiancé; they dated for about a year, got engaged in 2018, but broke up amid the high-profile Monica Kimani murder case, where Maribe was acquitted and Jowie convicted.

Unknown birthday guest – Referenced in leaked lists as an unidentified man from one of her birthday events, fueling gossip but lacking specifics.
