According to a source close to Diamond Platnumz, the root cause of the Diamond-Zari breakup is financial. Wait a minute! How could a rich-on-demand artiste and self-proclaimed ‘boss lady’ have financial issues rocking their union? Well, there is more than what meets the eye.
The source alleges that Zari’s endless expenses and insatiable appetite for materialistic things frustrated singer Diamond. The source stated that Diamond was spending $10,000 (about 36m) on Zari’s monthly expenses and servicing a loan on Zari’s new Benz.
Reportedly, Zari who resides in South Africa expected Diamond to travel to South Africa atleast twice a month spending $7000 (about 26m) and also Zari, likewise would travel to Tanzania spending $7000( about Shs26m).
Zari, also was reportedly demanding Diamond to pay about $18,000 (about Shs66m) for the daughter’s kid in South Africa. To keep up with trends, Zari reportedly demanded Shs36m monthly to overhaul her wardrobe. The overall expense was about $57,000 (about 208m) a month.
