If you thought Diamond Platnumz was just passing time with Kenyan queen, Tanasha Donna; then you thought wrong.

However since the two hooked up, it seems that Diamond Platnumz has been keeping a low profile; and unlike before – now he has not found himself in any cheating scandal.
Fallen in love
Anyway, just recently Diamond Platnumz came out to confess his true feelings in a new post shared by Tanansha Donna.
Diamond Platnumz went on to reveal that he is aware that there are those who are waiting for him to cheat on his new lady, but he wouldn’t do her wrong.

Although details about the birth of baby Gold Christen are still being kept on the low by his parents; Ms Nimo Gachuiri could not hold back from sharing just a little bit information about what she went through.
Natural birth
Unlike Bahati’s wife who had a C Section due to medical reasons; Mr Seeds fiancé actually had a natural birth and what she saw her has left her appreciating her mum even more.
She revealed this through her Instagram stories where she talked about the crazy labor pain she experienced. However despite it all, the new Mum in town could not trade that experience for anything else especially when she looks at her handsome son.
Bahati’s wife Diana Marua has come forth to talk about some of the challenges she faces for being on social media.
Having married a gospel artist and starting a family has automatically put her on the limelight and for this reason she has to face both criticism and love from fans.
There are those fans who will admire her family and keep up with the Bahati’s; however there are also fans who can’t stand them and this is the most challenging part.
Developed thick skin
Speaking during an interview on Kiss FM Diana Marua explained how sometimes she wakes up to insults and mocking comments left on her page. She went on say;
The most challenging thing with our lives being out there is that people will wake up one morning and decide ‘Today let me attack Diana, today let me attack the Bahatis’. I wake up and I find our names all over and then I am like ‘What is this? What is happening?’. People feel like since you out there I am entitled to write anything I want to write about you guys and that is the most challenging thing, you can’t control that.
Although one cannot pretend this is not happening, Diana Marua says that she has learnt not to let such things affect her.
The age difference between her and Bahati has also not made it easy for her; but despite it all she seems to have adopted to this life and there is no turning back.
Huddah has lately been making headlines on several tabloids thanks to her ‘Kufunga duka’ Slogan. Apparently she has decided to abstain from sex since men are now acting up.
Away from that she has also been encouraging young ladies to invest while they are young. According to her, men will only sleep with them just to pay little money which will not be of any help in the future.
Weird Chinese ritual
Anyway apart from that she recently shared a post that left many shocked on social media as she revealed a weird ritual being carried out by the Chinese road constructors somewhere in Nairobi.
Apparrently she saw them dig a hole, threw in live pigs which they later set on fire. Not quite sure why this happens but Huddah says it is a ritual these Chinese constructors perform before building a road in Kenya.
If this is indeed true, then I guess there is so much going on that we don’t know!
Diamaond Platnumz girlfriend, Tanasha Donna is not one to mess around with. Unlike many who find her quiet, she is actually pretty scary with mean came backs – only if you mess with her.
Having dated Diamond Platnumz for a few months now; the lass seems to have seen it all. So far she has been trolled on social media for her body and legs but thanks to her thick skin – the lady is still standing tall.
Bleaching her face?
Anyway just a few hours ago yet another fan came out screaming that Tanasha is bleaching herself. This is after Tanasha’s face appeared to look a bit lighter on one of her photos wherelse the legs looked dark.
However in response to these allegations, Tanasha schooled the fan about contrast and of course the effects of good make up.
Having one Caucasian parent is proof enough that the NRG presenter needs no bleaching agent to look lighter than she already is.
