Zari Hassan, the Ugandan business mogul and socialite, has finally opened up about why she chose Shakib Lutaaya as her husband instead of rekindling her romance with Diamond Platnumz, the Tanzanian music superstar with whom she shares two children. Despite public speculation and lingering nostalgia from fans, Zari has made it clear that her relationship with Diamond is strictly co-parenting and friendship—nothing more.
Co-Parenting, Not a Love Story
Zari and Diamond have had a high-profile and turbulent history, filled with both love and controversy. However, in a recent interview, she explained that while they share two beautiful children and will always be connected, romantically, that chapter is closed. She emphasized that their focus is now on raising their kids in a healthy and peaceful environment, without unnecessary drama.
Why Shakib? A Love Built on Understanding
In October 2023, Zari tied the knot with Shakib Lutaaya, a much younger man, which sparked curiosity and debate. But for Zari, age is just a number—what matters is the connection and emotional security she has found in her new husband. She described Shakib as:
✅ Supportive – He respects and understands her lifestyle.
✅ Present & Responsible – Despite having children from past relationships, Shakib remains a committed father.
✅ Her Peace – Unlike past relationships, which were marred by public scrutiny and scandals, her bond with Shakib is built on mutual love, respect, and privacy.
No Regrets, Only Growth
Zari made it clear that her marriage to Shakib was intentional and fulfilling. She has outgrown the drama and heartbreak of past relationships and is now prioritizing her happiness. Though fans still link her to Diamond, she insists that their relationship is strictly about their children.
“At the end of the day, it’s about who makes you happy. Shakib does that for me.” – Zari Hassan
While the world continues to watch her love story unfold, one thing is clear: Zari Hassan is living life on her own terms, with a man who truly values her.
