Kenyan celebrity couple VJ Patelo and his wife Diana have thrilled fans with the announcement that they are expecting their first child together. The news quickly went viral, sparking celebrations and excitement across social media platforms.
Announcement Amid Club Appearance
The announcement came unexpectedly just hours before a highly anticipated club appearance in Lodwar. Diana shared a video explaining her absence: “To all my fans in Lodwar, I am so sorry because I could not make it. I am not feeling well. I am pregnant, so I could not make it all the way there. Please bear with me. Next time I will come. Have a blast with my husband.”
Family Background
Diana is already a mother of three — two sons and a daughter — with her eldest child now 20 years old. Patelo, 26, has openly embraced his bond with her children, revealing that they already call him dad. Fans have praised the couple for celebrating family life openly, describing their announcement as heartwarming and inspiring.
Social Media Reactions
Social media erupted with congratulatory messages, jokes, and admiration for the couple. Followers highlighted their authenticity and praised their ability to stay positive under public scrutiny. Comments ranged from playful humor about the baby’s future to admiration for Diana’s confidence and Patelo’s supportive role.
Addressing Age-Related Criticism
The pregnancy announcement comes after the couple addressed online criticism regarding Diana’s age. In a recent video, Diana confronted age-related trolling: “So even if I’m old, what’s your problem? Just leave me alone, I have my husband.” Patelo reinforced their stance, stating, “Mind your own business. Even if she’s old, she isn’t your mother. Wa kudumu tutadumu.” Their united front strengthened fans’ admiration for their relationship.
Celebrity Status and Public Attention
Patelo and Diana’s relationship has consistently captured public attention. Their lavish wedding at Naiposha Gardens in Limuru earlier this year became a trending topic due to its grandeur, cementing their status as one of Kenya’s most talked-about celebrity couples. With this latest pregnancy announcement, the couple continues to dominate headlines, sharing their journey with fans and celebrating love, family, and authenticity.
