Diamond’s cousin Romy Jons confirms marrying a second wife, begs first wife Kay to return
By Ascah Mwango, June 19, 2026A massive polygamy scandal has rocked the highest ranks of East Africa’s biggest record label after Diamond Platnumz’s elder cousin and official DJ, Romy Jons, made a stunning public confession.
Following days of intense online speculation and a heartbroken announcement from his first wife of eight years, Kay Jons, that she was walking away from the marriage – the WCB Wasafi Vice President took to his official Instagram account (@romyjons) on Friday, June 19, 2026, to confirm the ultimate trigger of the split: he had secretly married a second wife without his first wife’s knowledge or consent.
In a desperate, all-caps plea, Romy admitted his faults, begged for Kay’s forgiveness, and called upon religious elders and family members to intervene and bring her back home.
Dropping the bombshell to his millions of followers, Romy explicitly stated:
“NIMEOA MKE WA PILI NDIO NA NAOMBA NIKIRI HILO!!! MKE MKUBWA HAKUKUBALIANA NA HILO NA NDIO SABABU YA KUPOST NA KUANDIKA YOTE ALIOYAANDIKA. KAMA KUNA SHEKHE,BABA,MAMA,MJOMBA,SHANGAZI NAOMBA AONGEE NA MKE MKUBWA ARUDI NYUMBANI TUENDELEE NA MAISHA. NAMPENDA NA SIPO TAYARI KUMPOTEZA KWA NAMNA YOYOTE ILE!! NDUGU JAMAA NA MARAFIKI NAOMBA MSAADA WENU. SIPO TAYARI KWA UGOMVI NA SIPO TAYARI KUMUACHA YOYOTE KATI YA WAKE ZANGU WOTE WAWILI. NAANDIKA HAYA KWA AKILI ZANGU TIMAMU NA KUTOKULAZIMISHWA NA MTU YOYOTE. BISMILLAH RAHMAN RAHIM 🤲🏽”
Translating his raw, frantic post into English, the DJ’s confession reads:
“YES, I HAVE MARRIED A SECOND WIFE AND I ASK TO CONFESS THIS!!! The first wife did not agree with this, and that is the reason she posted and wrote everything she wrote. If there is a Sheikh, father, mother, uncle, or aunt, I beg you to speak with my first wife so she returns home and we continue with life. I love her and I am not ready to lose her in any way!! Brothers, relatives, and friends, I ask for your help. I am not ready for conflict, and I am not ready to leave either of my two wives. I write this in my right mind and without being forced by anyone. In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful 🤲🏽.”
While Romy initially attempted to downplay the crisis by stating he had merely “done what he did without involving his wife,” the truth has now completely spilled over.
Despite the massive uproar and Kay Jons packing her bags in a fit of shock and anger, Romy doubled down on his new living arrangement.
He made it perfectly clear to the public and the media that he has not officially divorced Kay Jons, but he absolutely refuses to divorce his new second bride either.
The drama reached a fever pitch when Romy Jons’ mother forcefully entered the public fray. Taking her son’s side, she publicly questioned why Kay Jons was refusing to accept the new co-wife.
Fanning the flames of the intense online debate, his mother argued that their Islamic faith explicitly permits a man to marry up to four wives, leaving purists and modern fans fiercely divided over whether Kay is right to walk away from the 8-year union.
