A video capturing Kenyan singer Bahati and his wife Diana Marua engaged in what appears to be drunken revelry at a nightclub has set social media ablaze.
The video, which surfaced on Sunday, July 16, was shared by Diana Marua on her Instagram stories.
In the footage, Diana can be seen getting close and cozy with rapper KRG the Don, while another clip shows Bahati seemingly enjoying a glass of what many assumed to be alcohol.
