Ugandan socialite Zari Hassan and her husband, Shakib Lutaaya, are once again embroiled in a public dispute, this time ignited by a surprise visit from Zari’s ex-partner, Tanzanian singer Diamond Platnumz.

The drama unfolded after Diamond made an unexpected appearance at their South African home to celebrate their daughter Latifah’s birthday. Zari claims she was unaware of Diamond’s plans, asserting that the visit was orchestrated by her house staff after Diamond expressed difficulty in reaching her directly due to Shakib’s constant presence.

Shakib, however, was reportedly furious about the visit, accusing Zari of maintaining a close relationship with her children’s father. Tensions escalated as the couple exchanged accusations during a live-stream, with Zari maintaining her innocence and explaining that she cannot prevent Diamond from seeing their children.

Despite the public fallout, Zari emphasized the importance of co-parenting, stating that Diamond is a significant part of their children’s lives and continues to provide financial support. She also acknowledged Diamond’s contribution to the birthday preparations.

The incident has once again thrust the high-profile couple into the spotlight, reigniting speculation about the stability of their relationship.
