In a heartfelt disclosure on his Netflix reality show, The Bahati’s Empire, musician Kevin Kioko, popularly known as Bahati, shared the key qualities he sought in a wife before marrying Diana Marua.
“Two things. One, she had to be saved. Second, she had to be older than me. Somehow, just to confess, I love my women older,” Bahati revealed.
The couple has an age difference of six years, with Diana being the elder.
During an emotional segment of the show, Bahati recounted the challenging circumstances of his childhood that led him to live in a children’s home despite having a living father.
“I lost my mother when I was seven years old. My father remarried and moved out of town. That is how I ended up at ABC Kenya Children’s Home. I studied there and when I was in Standard Eight, I got a call… All this time I had never seen my father. But I got a call to go and bury him,” Bahati shared tearfully.
Bahati and Diana’s relationship has captivated fans, often due to their candidness about the unconventional aspects of their union.
Despite numerous challenges, their bond has grown stronger over time.
Reflecting on his love for Diana, Bahati expressed the profound impact she has had on his life.
“She used to take care of her family, she’s the older sister and it’s like she’s the one who raised the younger ones. Because I’m an orphan, the moment I wanted to start a family, I wanted someone who could create a space for a life I never had before,” he said in a previous interview.
Diana and Bahati have three children together. They are also raising two other children: one from Bahati's previous relationship and his adopted son.
