INSIDE DIANA MARUA AND BAHATI TRADITIONAL WEDDING

Musician Diana Marua has confirmed she wedded Bahati at a traditional ceremony held on October 7, 2023.

Taking to her social, Marua said she is a lucky girl, “If you told me 10 years ago that on this Day 07.10.2023 I’d be celebrating my traditional ceremony, I would probably laugh out loud. When you look at me, you see a lucky girl but you don’t know what it has taken for me to get here. I’ve faced a lot of tough times growing up, I didn’t finish school because there was no money, begging landlords to give us a few more days was the order of the day, we had a book of Mkopo, kwa duka that we would pay monthly and that was normal for us. 

Diana highlighted all the tough challenges she has gone through, “I left school and my first job was hawking line ya ‘U’ when the long gone telecom started in Kenya. Then later became an Mpesa agent. I slowly made steps to the commercial world and became an overlooked receptionist, but who is God? I didn’t know I’ll live in my own mansion, drive big cars, become an employer, give the world to my children and live a life full of God’s favour, blessings and abundance. I’ve had my own share of life, ups and downs. I’ve dated all sorts of men, been used and dumped, been heartbroken, been bartered but all this was preparing me for God’s plan.”

Marua further stated she wished her mum would witness her big day, “I met @BahatiKenya and I dropped everyone because for once, my heart beat differently. The moment I knew we were dating, he has never let go of my hand. You see gifts, you see me being crowned but all this has taken a lot of hard-work, perseverance, commitment, apologizing when your wrong, we’ve wiped each others tears, Submitting even when I can’t stand him, leaving everything and prioritising someone’s emotions when we’re down, encouraging each other even when we can’t see the light of day… The list is overwhelming. 

“If I was given one wish, It would be for our mums to witness this day and celebrate with us but God had other plans. They’re watching us in Heaven and I know we’ve made them so proud. Babe, we’ve all come from broken families but thank you for breaking this chain and teaching me what it means to keep a family and fight for each other when the world is against us. You have stood as the head of our house with so much love and dignity. You are my Safe Space. My prayer is that with long life may he satisfy us and show us his salvation.”
