Overzealous Fans: Diamond Platnumz Sets the Record Straight ¶
June 28, 2020
Tanzanian singer Diamond Platnumz has taken to social media to address claims of bedding multiple women, urging his female fans to refrain from lying about their relationships.
Platnumz pleaded with his fans to be truthful about their relationships, stating, 'I am really grateful for the love many of my female fans have shown me. I love you and I value you. However, if you know we have never been involved intimately please do not lie that we have because that does not look good.'
The singer's statement comes after a fan claimed to have been in a romantic relationship with him, and socialite Poshy Queen was forced to address reports that she was expecting Platnumz's fourth child.
Poshy Queen denied the claims, stating, 'Those are just rumours. People can say whatever they want to. I have never dated Diamond and I have no time for that man. I am not pregnant for him as it is being claimed on social media networks.'
Platnumz's plans to get married to his ex-girlfriend Tanasha Donna were postponed in 2019, with the singer citing a desire for more notable public figures to attend the wedding.
According to Platnumz, the wedding was initially set for Valentine's Day in 2019 but was postponed due to logistical issues.
His sister Queen Darleen has also weighed in on the matter, stating that Platnumz is not ready for long-term commitment.
She said, 'He and I often talk about matters of marriage and relationships. Diamond fears locking himself up in a marital cage. He says he wants to settle down when he is ready, and I don’t think he is currently up for it.'
