Zari Hassan defends relationship with Diamond Platnumz
Zari Hassan has stepped forward to defend her recent public appearance alongside her ex-partner, Diamond Platnumz.
The former couple, who share two children together, sparked a wave of speculation after a video emerged showing them walking together, hand in hand, in what appeared to be a cozy moment.
This public display of closeness came mere hours before Zari’s husband, Shakib, made a drastic move on social media by deleting all traces of their relationship from his profiles.
The action was accompanied by a cryptic message that hinted at deeper sentiments, stating:
“May People with pure intentions find people with pure intentions.”
The aftermath of these events saw Zari facing backlash from her own fan base, with many questioning the nature of her relationship with Diamond Platnumz and expressing concern for her current marital status.
Some netizens even went as far as to remind both Zari and Diamond of their respective partners, calling into question their true intentions.
Responding to the scrutiny, Zari took to Instagram to share a motivational quote, but found herself inundated with inquiries about the controversial video rather than the intended message.
However, the online discourse escalated as followers weighed in with their opinions.
One user, philipo_rais_wcb, expressed disappointment, accusing Zari of betraying their shared romantic history.
Zari swiftly dismissed the accusation, questioning the relevance of music promotion to matters of the heart.
“@philipo_rais_wcb kwani promotion ya nyimbo inaingiaje kwa mapenzi, kwani kaka ashoot nawanawake wengine. Nitole upuuzi.”
Further criticism came from another follower, wendychie, who predicted a bleak future for Zari in her dealings with Diamond.
Unfazed by the negativity, Zari shut down the comment, asserting her agency and challenging the user’s assumptions.
“@wendychie how when I’m not with him. Tell your peanut-sized brain to stop playing games with you.”
Amidst the controversy, concerns were raised about Zari’s relationship with Shakib, prompting speculation that Diamond’s presence had caused discord.
However, Zari was quick to dispel such notions, affirming that her decisions were independent of Diamond’s influence.
