Renowned Tanzanian actress Wema Sepetu has opened up about the emotional pain she endured during her relationship with Bongo Flava superstar Diamond Platnumz. Speaking in a recent interview with Mino TV, Wema candidly shared her regret over not having a child with Diamond, whom she described as the love of her life.
“I would break down every time I got my period because I was desperate to give Diamond a child,” Wema revealed. “It hurt me deeply, as I truly wanted to have his baby. He remains the only man I’ve ever loved so profoundly.”
Wema was already a household name in Tanzania’s entertainment industry when she started dating Diamond in the early stages of his music career. Their highly publicized relationship, which lasted over five years, became a staple of East African celebrity news. Despite their undeniable chemistry, their romance was tumultuous, characterized by breakups and reconciliations.
Their commitment to each other was so intense that they reportedly entered into a blood covenant, a decision Wema now views with regret due to their youth and inexperience. Adding a musical touch to their love story, Diamond immortalized Wema in his song “Nawaza,” a hit that fans still associate with their passionate relationship.
However, their love story came to an abrupt end in 2014, when Diamond began a new chapter with Ugandan-South African socialite Zari Hassan. Zari soon gave birth to Diamond’s first two children, daughter Tiffah and son Prince Nillan.
Diamond has since expanded his family, welcoming children with Tanzanian socialite Hamisa Mobetto and Kenyan singer Tanasha Donna. Wema, meanwhile, has remained vocal about her longing to have had a child with Diamond, reflecting on their bond with a mix of love and sorrow.
The actress’s heartfelt revelations have reignited discussions about their iconic relationship and the emotional scars left behind. Despite their separation, Wema’s vulnerability reminds fans of the deep, complex emotions often hidden behind the glamour of celebrity life.
