Tanzanian musician Diamond Platnumz has made a bold claim, revealing that he could easily rekindle his romance with Zari Hassan, his ex-wife, if he desired. Despite the dramatic assertion, the artist made it clear that he has no intention of reuniting with Zari and is content with the current state of their relationship.
This candid admission came during the filming of Zari’s reality show, when the question of whether he felt envious of her current partner, Shakib Lutaaya, arose. The couple’s past relationship has been a major subject of public interest across East Africa, with their on-again, off-again romance generating headlines for years in Uganda, Tanzania, Kenya, and even Rwanda. Their love story was once one of the most talked-about celebrity relationships in the region.
However, today, Zari is married to Shakib Lutaaya and the couple is raising a blended family in South Africa. She has children with both her late ex-husband Ivan Ssemwanga, as well as with Diamond Platnumz. Despite the smooth public image, there have been reports suggesting that Shakib occasionally experiences insecurity about Zari’s past with Diamond, especially when it comes to their children.
While Zari and Diamond’s relationship ended years ago, the two have continued to co-parent their children, maintaining a relationship of mutual respect and cooperation. Diamond’s admission suggests that while there may still be some lingering emotions or unspoken tension, he remains confident in his ability to win her back, should he choose to. This revelation adds another layer to the ongoing public fascination with the former couple, who continue to be prominent figures in the East African entertainment scene.
The speculation surrounding their current dynamic has ignited a wave of conversations among fans and the media, especially given Shakib’s occasional displays of jealousy. It appears that Diamond’s assertion is a reminder of the lingering bond between him and Zari, despite the passage of time and their separate paths.
While Diamond’s confidence in his ability to win Zari back might seem surprising to some, it’s clear that the two share a complex relationship that continues to captivate their audience. As for now, Diamond seems to have no desire to disrupt the balance of Zari’s life with Shakib, leaving fans to wonder what the future holds for the former power couple.
