January 9, 2020, marked a new beginning for Coast-based journalist Tobias Chanji, who has found love again after a painful breakup.
Chanji, who works for KTN, recently shared pictures of his exclusive engagement to his Newcastle-born fiancée Madison in Diani, Kwale County.
The two met at an airport in Dubai while Chanji was going through a difficult time after a breakup.
"I had a very nasty breakup last year that nearly pushed me to commit suicide twice. I remember I saw her at an airport in Dubai, and her eyes warmed my heart," Chanji told SDE.
Chanji proposed to Madison while recording a song, 'Why Pay Love with Hate,' at Villa Mandari Diani. Madison had tagged along to watch the video shoot.
"I took advantage of the shoot and proposed to her. What a nice feeling," Chanji said.
The two met at a time when they were both healing from their previous relationships.
Chanji described Madison as a 'very nice, beautiful lady' who shares his vision and is understanding of his past experiences.
