Diana Marua sparked fresh conversations about her wedding plans with gospel singer Kevin Bahati after sharing private WhatsApp messages during a friend's wedding on August 24.

The couple, together for nearly a decade and parents to children, have yet to hold their anticipated white wedding despite multiple promises and shifting timelines.

Leaked Chats Reveal Diana's Frustration

While seated at the ceremony, Diana posted screenshots of their chat where she directly urged Bahati to marry her. She wrote, "Na unimarry please." Bahati’s initial response was terse: "Itakua mbayaa" (It will be bad).

Diana countered by emphasizing their love and suggested his reluctance stemmed from joking around. When Bahati asked if she preferred his joking or serious side, she replied sharply that she disliked seriousness unless it was about hastening their wedding.

Bahati concluded the exchange reassuringly, stating he was planning "The Best Wedding everrr."

Background on Wedding Delays

  • Bahati has publicly pledged to invest KSh 100 million in a grand white wedding.
  • He has envisioned a lavish event hosting over 3,000 guests and a KSh 5 million wedding dress for Diana.
  • Despite these promises, the wedding has been postponed multiple times since their traditional Ruracio ceremony in 2023.
  • Initial dates set for December 2023 and later October 2025 were missed.

Diana’s Previous Public Appeals

This is not the first instance Diana has pressed Bahati about their wedding. Approaching their 10-year relationship anniversary, she questioned why the ceremony had not happened despite the gifts of mansions and cars. She urged that funds be redirected to finalising their nuptials.

Diana shared the chats with a lighthearted caption, but the exchange reflects her ongoing hope for the milestone event.

Couple’s Journey

Diana and Bahati met in 2016 and have since built a relationship grounded in love and faith. Their story continues to engage fans, with Diana expressing a desire to grow old with Bahati, her partner of nearly ten years.
