In a dazzling event that has taken the East African entertainment industry by storm, Tanzanian music powerhouses Diamond Platnumz and Zuchu have officially tied the knot. The wedding, which was closely guarded until its occurrence, was held in Zanzibar and blended tradition, celebrity, and romance in a way only these two could deliver.
The couple, long speculated to be in a romantic relationship, surprised fans and media alike by making their union official in a private but culturally rich ceremony. According to close sources, the event was attended by family, close friends, and a handful of high-profile guests from the entertainment and political scenes.
Diamond Platnumz, born Naseeb Abdul Juma, is one of Africa’s most successful recording artists and the founder of WCB Wasafi. Zuchu, whose full name is Zuhura Othman Soud, is a rising star signed under the same label and is known for her powerful voice and Swahili-infused love ballads.
The two artists have long teased fans with subtle romantic hints in interviews and social media posts. Their collaborations on tracks like Cheche and Litawachoma only added fuel to the rumors. Yet, neither party publicly confirmed their relationship.
Held on the scenic island of Zanzibar, the wedding showcased the perfect blend of Swahili traditions and modern elegance. Both Diamond and Zuchu wore traditional attire during the early part of the ceremony, followed by a glamorous reception where the bride stunned in a custom-designed gown.
Sources revealed that key elements of Tanzanian marriage traditions were honored, including the involvement of family elders in blessing the couple and leading traditional prayers. The event also featured live taarab performances, a nod to Zanzibar’s rich musical history.
Although the ceremony was private, photos and clips began circulating within hours.
