Musicians Nadia Mukami and Arrow Bwoy have opened up about postponing their wedding plans after discovering they were expecting their second child. The couple, who have been in the public eye for their relationship and musical collaborations, revealed that the decision to cancel the wedding was heavily influenced by family considerations and cultural beliefs.
Nadia, now proudly showing off her baby bump, explained that everything had been set in motion for the wedding until they learned about the pregnancy. She said that although her father initially supported the wedding plans and had even accepted the dowry, he later changed his mind. He and other family members felt that proceeding with a wedding while she was pregnant might bring bad luck, and they advised the couple to wait until after the baby was born.
According to Nadia, the traditional marriage process had already begun, and some cultural rites had been observed, including her family receiving gifts from Arrow’s side. However, with the change of heart from her father, they were advised to redo the entire dowry process once the baby arrives and is a little older. The couple is now planning to revisit their wedding plans sometime in 2026.
The news sparked a flurry of reactions on social media. Some people sympathized with the couple, understanding the pressure that cultural traditions can place on modern relationships. Others questioned the reasoning behind postponing a wedding simply because of a pregnancy, noting that such decisions are often influenced by more personal or financial factors.
There were also users who criticized the delay, expressing disappointment that the couple hadn’t formalized their union earlier, especially since they already share a child who is over three years old. Some suggested that issues such as money or family disagreements might be the real reason behind the postponement, despite the public explanation.
In addition to the wedding revelation, Nadia has also previously made headlines for referring to herself as a single woman, even though Arrow had publicly declared that they were married. She explained that since the dowry process hadn’t been completed, she did not consider herself officially married. This sparked debate online, with many women supporting her stance, while others interpreted her comments as a jab at her partner.
The couple has had a history of ups and downs. They had broken up at one point but later reconciled. Nadia also shared that Arrow wasn’t initially her type and that she had been in another relationship when she started dating him. Despite these challenges, they have managed to stay together and continue building their family.
Arrow once revealed that they sometimes go days without speaking even while living under the same roof, pointing to the complexities of their relationship. However, both have remained committed to each other, and with another child on the way, they seem to be focusing on their family before making the next big step.
