A joyful ending to a special week

During the celebration, guests learned that the couple was expecting a baby girl as pink decorations filled the venue. Diamond also presented Zuchu with a cash gift of Ksh3.87 million, saying it was only a small token of appreciation for carrying their child.
He explained that no amount of money could ever equal what Zuchu had done for him, describing motherhood as a priceless gift.
A relationship that has kept fans talking

Although neither of them has publicly spoken about the current status of their relationship, the support they have shown each other throughout the pregnancy and the birth has caught the attention of many fans.
Beginning a new chapter
For Diamond and Zuchu, the arrival of their daughter marks more than just a family milestone. It is the beginning of a new chapter centred on parenthood.
Their emotional messages reflected the joy of the moment, with Diamond welcoming his daughter with love and Zuchu describing the newborn as her “whole world”, a sentiment that captured the happiness surrounding the family’s newest member.
