Diamond Platnumz, the renowned Tanzanian musician and WCB Boss, has recently made headlines with his announcement about marrying singer Zuchu. This comes after a tense period between the two, which has been amplified by their personal and professional lives intersecting on the popular Netflix reality show Young, Famous & African, which premiered on January 17.
In the series, Diamond and Zuchu’s relationship dynamics take center stage. Despite the public’s interest in their relationship, Diamond shocked fans when he denied dating Zuchu during a confession on the show. He described their connection as merely a “situation-ship,” sparking controversy and fueling speculation about their romance. However, in an emotional conversation with Tanzanian singer Nandy, Diamond revealed that he plans to marry Zuchu before the start of the holy month of Ramadan, which begins on the evening of February 28. If he follows through on his promise, the wedding will take place just before the end of February, setting a new timeline for their future together.
Tension between the two has also been evident in Zuchu’s recent statements on social media. She publicly expressed frustration with Wasafi FM, Diamond’s radio station, for constantly making her the subject of discussion. Zuchu alleged that employees at Wasafi FM had been bullying and harassing her by frequently discussing her relationship with Diamond on air. In a passionate post, she declared that it was not necessary for Diamond to marry her, emphasizing that she has never pressured him into a relationship. Zuchu also voiced her discomfort with the station’s focus on her, stating that Diamond’s personal life seemed to overshadow her professional achievements.
Despite this drama, Diamond continues to dominate the entertainment scene, both in his music and in the reality show. In Young, Famous & African, he not only addresses his relationship with Zuchu but also sparks new drama with Ghanaian singer Fantana. Fantana openly discussed her past feelings for Diamond and the tensions with Zari Hassan, further adding layers to the drama. While Fantana’s comments may have caught fans’ attention, it’s clear that the spotlight remains on Diamond and Zuchu’s complicated relationship.
With the wedding date now set, fans are eagerly waiting to see if Diamond will fulfill his promise and whether the ongoing tensions will affect their union. Whether they tie the knot before Ramadan or not, one thing is clear: the drama surrounding Diamond Platnumz and Zuchu is far from over.
