Pascal Tokodi, a well-known actor celebrated for his role in popular television dramas, recently shared his thoughts on love and fatherhood. Tokodi was previously married to media personality Grace Ekirapa, with whom he shares a daughter named Jasmine Ariah. While the couple has since separated, the actor expressed his hope to find love again in the future. His optimism for love remains strong, as he mentioned his desire to experience the deep emotional connection he feels with his daughter with a partner someday.
Reflecting on his career, Tokodi shared that his journey into acting began while he was still in high school. His first acting opportunity opened doors for him, eventually allowing him to move to Ngong Road after completing his secondary education. This early start in acting set the foundation for his successful career, which later included features on global platforms like Netflix.
Fatherhood, according to Tokodi, has profoundly influenced his outlook on life. He spoke about how becoming a dad has made him more mindful of how he treats women, noting that he now considers how he would want a man to treat his own daughter. His role as a father has reshaped his perspective, instilling in him a deeper sense of empathy and respect.
Speculation about Tokodi and Ekirapa’s separation began to surface in 2024, with rumors suggesting that the couple was no longer living together. Some claimed that Tokodi had moved back to Karen, while Ekirapa remained at their matrimonial home in Limuru. The two, however, attempted to dispel the rumors by sharing a video of themselves spending time with their daughter, which left many questioning the true status of their relationship.
Although neither Tokodi nor Ekirapa has publicly shared details about what led to their separation, fans of the couple were hopeful that they would reconcile. The actor’s heartfelt birthday message to Ekirapa further fueled speculation. In the post, he honored her as the mother of his daughter, choosing not to refer to her as his wife, which led many to believe that they were now co-parenting.
Ekirapa, for her part, previously mentioned that she found it difficult to stay away from Tokodi due to her familiarity with his presence. She praised him for being a proactive and loving father, expressing appreciation for his involvement in their daughter’s life. According to her, his presence at home meant more than any material gesture, and she admitted that his absence often made her uneasy.
Despite their separation, both Tokodi and Ekirapa seem committed to maintaining a positive environment for their daughter, demonstrating respect and cooperation as co-parents. Tokodi remains hopeful about finding love again, inspired by the bond he shares with his daughter and the understanding that love is a transformative experience.
