Tanzanian music sensation Diamond Platnumz has officially declared that he is no longer single, ending years of speculation and drama surrounding his relationship status. The “Komasava” hitmaker, who is currently on tour in the UK, made the long-awaited revelation during a recent interview, stating confidently, “I’m taken, just one on the list. How can someone like me be single?”
This announcement comes after years of denying his rumored romance with fellow Bongo star Zuchu, despite numerous public clues that the two were more than just label mates. The singer had previously left fans puzzled with his contradictory behavior—publicly downplaying the relationship while simultaneously showing signs of deep connection behind the scenes.
One of the most controversial incidents occurred when Diamond featured on the popular Netflix reality show Young, Famous & African, where he flirted openly with co-star Fantana and claimed he was single. His actions didn’t stop there. During his best friend Juma Jux’s wedding in Nigeria, Diamond reportedly flirted with women and even told the officiating pastor that he wasn’t in a relationship.
These repeated public denials appeared to wear heavily on Zuchu. At one point, she even asked her fans to send in husband applications, sparking conversations online about her frustration and Diamond’s reluctance to fully embrace their love in public. Fans speculated that she was growing tired of waiting for a clear declaration from him.
In contrast, Diamond’s latest statement is being seen as a turning point. Though he did not mention Zuchu by name, his words were widely interpreted as an official confirmation of their relationship. Supporters online flooded social media with emotional reactions, praising him for finally acknowledging what many believed had been true all along.
Several netizens expressed pride in Diamond’s apparent growth, suggesting that Zuchu’s influence may have played a role in his change of heart. Some users commended him for showing respect to his partner, while others praised Zuchu for her patience and strength throughout the uncertainty.
Speculation intensified with whispers that the couple may have secretly tied the knot in a private ceremony. It was even rumored that Zuchu’s mother might not have been informed, adding a layer of intrigue to the already viral revelation.
Meanwhile, not everyone celebrated the news. Bongo artist Harmonize weighed in with a cryptic message on social media, questioning whether the marriage was real or just a strategic move. He implied the relationship could be a way to keep Zuchu connected to Diamond’s Wasafi Records, a label that has been home to many major Tanzanian stars.
Whether genuine or strategic, the admission has stirred excitement and debate across East Africa. Diamond’s fans are now watching closely to see what this new chapter means for both his personal life and career. For Zuchu, the moment marks a significant emotional victory—finally receiving public recognition after years of loyalty and speculation.
