Diana Marua opened up about the uncertainty surrounding her wedding plans with Kenyan artist Bahati. The couple, who have been together for seven years, had initially planned their wedding for December 12, 2023. However, this date came and went without the anticipated nuptials, and they rescheduled for October 2024, aligning the date with their anniversary. Yet, as the new date approaches, it appears that their wedding might face further delays.
Bahati, known for his hit songs and vibrant public persona, expressed his frustration with the ongoing changes in their wedding plans. In the interview, he revealed that Diana has been hesitant to settle on a specific date, causing the couple to consider postponing their October 20 wedding. “We planned our wedding for October 20, our anniversary, but Diana keeps postponing it every day. It’s not up to me anymore,” Bahati admitted.
Bahati’s comments highlighted the tension and confusion surrounding the couple’s wedding timeline. He mentioned that Diana is now contemplating a possible date in February 2025, but Bahati has been cautious about making any further announcements. “I think she’s suggesting a date in February, so I don’t want to discuss it until she makes it official because every time I announce it, I look like I’m chasing clout,” he said. This ongoing indecision has left Bahati feeling exasperated, as he recalls previous conversations where Diana expressed various concerns about their initial wedding date.
Diana Marua, on her part, acknowledged her reluctance to finalize the wedding plans, citing a lack of readiness. When asked about her reasons for the postponements, Diana confessed, “Weddings give me butterflies… We talked about it, and he asked, ‘Babe, why do you keep postponing?’ and I said, ‘I just want to be ready.’ He asked, ‘Ready for what?’ and I replied, ‘I don’t even know, but I just want to be ready.’ I think I’m not mentally prepared, but I’m working on it.” This admission underscores Diana’s emotional and psychological challenges regarding the wedding, as she navigates the pressures and expectations that come with such a significant life event.
The couple’s journey has been marked by both personal milestones and public scrutiny. In October 2023, Bahati made a notable gesture by paying dowry to Diana’s family, symbolizing a significant step in their relationship. Despite this important milestone, the official wedding date remains uncertain, leaving fans and followers eagerly awaiting further updates.
Bahati and Diana Marua have a blended family that includes their three children together, an adopted son, and Bahati’s daughter from a previous relationship with Yvette Obura. Their family life, characterized by both joy and challenges, adds another layer of complexity to their wedding plans. The couple’s commitment to their family and their public image continues to draw attention, even as they navigate their personal uncertainties.
As the potential wedding dates continue to shift, Diana Marua’s openness about her feelings and the couple’s ongoing discussions provide insight into the pressures of planning a high-profile wedding. For now, it seems that the couple’s focus will remain on finding a date that aligns with Diana’s readiness, rather than rushing into a ceremony that she does not feel fully prepared for.
The anticipation around Bahati and Diana Marua’s wedding remains high, with fans and well-wishers hoping for clarity and a final decision on the date. Until then, the couple’s journey will undoubtedly continue to capture public interest, as they work through their personal and logistical challenges on the road to their wedding day.
