On October 17, 2019, TUKO.co.ke came across a series of adorable photos of legendary radio presenter Fred Obachi Machoka and his youthful wife Sophie, celebrating 40 years of being husband and wife.

According to their photographer Jackson Mwangi, Fred first fell in love with his wife Sophie's photo, going through sleepless nights for several days.

They later met, exchanged numerous love letters, and tied the knot afterwards. The rest, as they say, is history.

Their wedding day is a day Fred will never forget, and the smiles on their faces told it all - these two were beyond happy and looked forward to sharing laughter and love for the coming 40 years.

While many people relate his name to the unforgettable Roga Roga, the happy chap draws his joy from a different fountain called love.
