Ugandan businesswoman Zari Hassan has five children, with her first three sons sired with late Ugandan businessman Ivan Ssemwanga and the remaining two with Tanzanian musician Diamond Platnumz.
On August 7, 2020, Zari's eldest son, Pinto Tlale, turned 17 years old. In a heartfelt message on social media, Zari wrote: 'Heir to the Don Semwanga's kingdom, help me wish my 1st boy a happy 17th birthday, you 1000 much.'
Pinto is an aspiring sportsman who dreams of playing in the NBA one day.
Just days after Pinto's birthday, Princess Tiffah celebrated her fifth birthday. Her brother, Quincy, penned a loving letter to her, saying: 'The Forbes Billionaire List is totally wrong. I am the richest person in the world because I have the love of a wonderful sister like you.'
Quincy's letter was accompanied by a sweet message from Zari, who wrote: 'Once upon a time far away in the land of Tegeta-Madale, a princess was born & the people of the land were excited for her arrival. Her name was @princess_tiffah …..She continues growing gracefully & beautifully before the people's eyes except with a bit of drama.'
Princess Tiffah's father, Diamond Platnumz, also celebrated her birthday with a heartfelt message and a video of the little princess.
