On May 6, 2020, Diana Marua, the wife of gospel musician Bahati, took to a YouTube Q&A session to address rumors of a past relationship with Kenyan international footballer Victor Wanyama.
Photos of Diana with different men had been trending online, with one picture showing her in the company of Wanyama, sparking speculation about their alleged relationship.
However, Diana clarified that she only met Wanyama through mutual friends and that their interactions were casual, resulting in the taking of selfies and group photos.
She pointed out that social media users only shared pictures of her and Wanyama, ignoring group photos that were also taken during the same occasion.
“You guys chose not to pick the group photo but highlight the selfies. Mnapenda muchene… I have never thought even in my wildest thoughts that I will ever date him,” she said.
Additionally, Diana stated that she has never been married to anyone other than Bahati and that she has no other children apart from the two she shares with the artiste.
It's worth noting that Diana's decision to join Twitter was reportedly influenced by Kenyans on the platform, who were discussing her trending status.
