Budding Tanzanian artist Marioo and his girlfriend, digital content creator and entrepreneur Paula Kajala, have shared insights into their relationship, revealing a refreshing approach to love, trust, and privacy. In a recent interview, the couple, who welcomed their first child earlier this year, disclosed that despite being public figures with their lives often in the spotlight, they maintain a strong level of trust that keeps their bond intact.
One of the standout revelations from their conversation was the fact that they never snoop through each other’s phones. Paula, aged 22, shared that they have access to each other’s mobile devices and social media accounts, but their trust in each other has built a foundation where privacy isn’t a point of contention. “We Gen-Z like the saying that ‘you shouldn’t hold your partner’s phone if you want your marriage to succeed,'” Paula said during the interview. This statement, which resonates with the couple’s mature approach to love, signifies a level of confidence and security that many couples could envy.
For Paula and Marioo, their trust goes beyond surface-level agreements. The two have engaged in open conversations about their relationship, setting clear boundaries, expectations, and goals. “There are things we have talked about… I believe he has heard, respected, and is afraid he can’t make a difference. That’s why I can’t hold his phone,” Paula explained. This openness, she believes, has contributed to the strength of their relationship, where there are no secrets or misunderstandings.
Marioo, 29, echoed Paula’s sentiments, emphasizing that he has no desire to check her phone. However, he also pointed out that Paula has her social media accounts logged in on his phone, which shows their willingness to share their digital spaces without fear. For Marioo, the foundation of their relationship lies in the trust they’ve built, and he firmly believes that no phone or social media check will change that.
Interestingly, Paula also plays a pivotal role in Marioo’s music career. While she trusts him completely, she remains actively involved in his art and music creation, particularly when it comes to the women featured in his music videos. Paula revealed that she approves the women who participate as video vixens in his projects. “Before he shoots with a woman, I have to know… I trust him; I know he can’t do anything,” Paula stated, clarifying that her involvement is not driven by insecurity but by her unwavering confidence in Marioo’s commitment to their relationship. This understanding, based on trust and respect, has allowed them to navigate their professional lives without compromising their personal one.
The couple’s bond has clearly deepened over time, and their journey together recently took a beautiful step forward with the birth of their daughter, Amara, in May 2024. Paula expressed her gratitude for the gift of motherhood on social media, sharing a heartfelt message: “My heart is full and grateful. Thank you for choosing me to be your mother.” Marioo, in turn, shared his joy, praying for their child to grow healthy and full of blessings.
Their journey as new parents has been filled with joy, love, and mutual respect. Marioo also took a moment to thank Paula, referring to her as his queen and expressing his gratitude for her role as the mother of their child. “Thank you, my queen, @therealpaulahkajala. You deserve everything within my ability. May God bless you abundantly,” Marioo wrote in a heartfelt post.
The couple’s approach to their relationship, grounded in trust and transparency, highlights the importance of open communication and mutual respect. As they continue to share their love story with the world, Marioo and Paula Kajala prove that trust is the cornerstone of a successful relationship, where privacy and loyalty go hand in hand. Their journey, both as partners and parents, is a testament to the power of understanding, respect, and shared goals in building a lasting and fulfilling connection.
