Zari Hassan and her 31-year-old partner, Shakib Lutaaya, recently made headlines as they tied the knot in a lavish private wedding in South Africa. The event was a significant moment in Zari’s life, marking her new journey with Shakib.
Anyway, what has captured the attention of many recently, is the presence of Diamond Platnumz, Zari’s former partner, and the father of two of her children, during their special day with their kids alongside Shakib Lutaaya.
Zari Hassan’s life has been a subject of public interest for several years. She first gained fame as the spouse of the late Ivan Semwanga in the early 2000s.
Together, they had three children, and their relationship was closely followed by the media. After Ivan’s unfortunate passing, Zari found love again with the famous Tanzanian musician, Diamond Platnumz.
Zari and Diamond’s relationship was not without its ups and downs. They became parents to two beautiful children, Tiffah and Nillan, and despite their eventual separation, they have successfully co-parented their kids.
Their journey was not always smooth, with several public spats and reconciliations, but they eventually went their separate ways in 2018.
One of the factors that contributed to the turbulence in their relationship was Diamond’s claim that Zari had been involved with Peter Okoye, an ex-member of the Nigerian music duo P-Square, and her gym instructor while they were still together.
This revelation, along with other issues, strained their relationship, ultimately leading to their breakup.
Fast forward to the present, Zari Hassan has moved on with her life and found happiness with Shakib Lutaaya, whom she recently married in South Africa.
The private wedding ceremony was a glamorous affair, attended by close friends and family.
During a visit to South Africa to spend time with his children, Diamond was seen with Zari’s and her husband Shakib.
The sight of the two men together raised eyebrows and led to discussions on social media. Some netizens were quick to point out that if it had been two women in a similar situation, they might not have been as cordial, but with men, there seemed to be no issues about them being friendly.
Speculations and assumptions quickly emerged, with some suggesting that Diamond’s lack of jealousy towards Zari’s new relationship with Shakib might indicate that he no longer has romantic feelings for her.
Others argued that he was simply being mature and respectful, prioritizing his role as a father and the well-being of his children.
