Tanzanian music star Diamond Platnumz has finally married his longtime partner Zuchu in a private Muslim ceremony. The long-anticipated union took place in an intimate setting, with elders in attendance and both bride and groom dressed in traditional white attire. Photos shared online showed the couple radiating happiness as they took this major step in their relationship.
This wedding comes after months of speculation and subtle online hints from Zuchu, who had expressed a desire to get married. The ceremony, simple yet elegant, appears to have marked the official beginning of their marital journey. Despite the low-key nature of the event, the couple shared a special post-wedding moment—a joyful car ride that Zuchu documented with the words, “Mume wangu. We are married,” while Diamond chuckled beside her.
The surprise announcement caused a stir online. Although Diamond’s initial social media post about the event was somewhat cryptic—hinting at past experiences with marriage rather than giving a direct confirmation—it was clear that this was more than just a symbolic occasion. Supporting videos showed the couple celebrating together, solidifying the truth behind the ceremony.
Fans, many of whom have followed the ups and downs of their relationship, were quick to react. Some congratulated the couple with heartfelt messages, while others remained skeptical, questioning whether a grand wedding celebration might follow. A few noted that the simplicity of the ceremony, often referred to as a “ndoa ya mkeka,” was perhaps too understated for celebrities of their stature.
For a long time, their relationship had been the subject of public curiosity. Diamond had earlier promised to marry Zuchu before the start of Ramadan in 2025. However, when the wedding did not happen at the time, speculation grew. During another public event—the wedding of fellow artist Juma Jux—Diamond again mentioned his plans, keeping fans hopeful. Zuchu, meanwhile, appeared increasingly unsure. Though she had expressed her wish to settle down, she also admitted she wasn’t certain when, or if, it would happen. Her occasional social media posts hinted at impatience and disappointment.
Now, that uncertainty seems to be behind them. The couple’s quiet but meaningful ceremony has officially marked the beginning of their new chapter together. Whether or not a larger celebration will follow remains to be seen, but for now, their joy is unmistakable.
As fans continue to speculate and celebrate in equal measure, one thing is clear—Diamond and Zuchu have made their union official, and they couldn’t be happier.
