Tanasha: Diamond is now providing for his son

Kenyan singer and former radio presenter Tanasha Donna has revealed that her baby’s daddy, Tanzanian singer Diamond Platnumz, is now providing for their son Naseeb Junior.

Speaking in an exclusive interview with Rick Media, Tanasha said the Bongo Flava artiste sends her cash for upkeep, school - and everything else their son needs.

“He is paying for his education right now, taking care of him and making efforts. I like what he is doing for his kids. He’s making efforts to ‘be there for them’ - and I’m proud of him,” said Tanasha.

In a previous interview with comedian Jalang’o, the singer said she was raising her son alone.

“I have been doing it all on my own, to be honest. In fact, I will be 100 percent honest with you, I’m very real and I’m not going to say something that is not the case. With all the respect I have for him - and I don’t have any bad blood with him,” she told Jalang’o then on Bonga na Jalas.

She added: “No, he is not supporting (me), and I’m doing it all on my own. I don’t need his support, to be honest. I’m raising my son just fine. There is nothing that the boy lacks in life. He is fine, that’s what matters.”

Diamond - now the father of four children by three different women - has faced legal battles in the past after one of his baby’s mama, Hamisa Mobetto, took him to court demanding child support. The case was later settled out of court after the two reached an amicable understanding.

The snafu with Hamisa is arguably the only publicized parental battle that Diamond has faced. He has two children with Ugandan socialite Zari Hassan, one with Tanzania’s Hamisa Mobetto, as well as one child with Kenyan singer and radio personality Tanasha Donna.

Tanasha and Diamond dated for a brief period of time starting in 2019. They were blessed with a baby boy - and the two seemed to be heading for the altar.

However, in early 2020 - right after releasing their smash hit ‘Gere’ - the two suddenly decided to part ways, leaving fans wondering what had gone wrong in their relationship that hadn’t shown any signs of withering away until the abrupt break-up.

Tanasha halted her frequent visits to Tanzania as a result - and she is yet to return, as she continues to reside in Kenya with the baby she shares with Diamond.

But, it looks like all is now well between the two who seemed to have planned their future so well when they were together.
