Gospel singer Kevin Kioko alias Bahati recently disclosed that his relationship with his wife Diana Marua has never been a bed of roses.
Speaking when he was hosted at Citizen Radio, Bahati revealed whenever he and Diana would have a disagreement, she would always move out of their matrimonial house. and go back to her parent’s home.
“When we started dating of course like any other relationship or marriage we had a lot of challenges. But in the first year of dating, she had a habit of packing her things and leaving our matrimonial home after every disagreement,” he said.
“Unamwendea kwao…unaanza zero. Mara mbili tatu…she used to complain that I was not giving her enough time, he added
When Diana asked for her comment about what used to happen, she said that Bahati never had time for her as her husband due to his busy schedule as an artist.
“I had a lot of challenges trying to balance family and my work as an artist. At that time we had a newborn,” she said.
Bahati said that finding a perfect balance in marriage is never easy and it takes a lot of time and commitment, at the moment they are in a good place despite the usual online bullying that he is now used to.
The aspiring Mathare MP was asked about Diana’s music journey and he said he was equally shocked just like other Kenyans when his wife woke up one morning and said that she wanted to release a song.
“I was as shocked as many Kenyans because I didn’t think that one day she’ll wake up and want to hit the studio but she is a fast learner,” he added.
“When I listened to her lines I liked her confidence and flow. She has really improved over time. There are so many critics but I do not focus on that. If you are not criticized it means you do not have an impact,” he said.

He was asked if they always check on each other’s phones and he was quick to defend himself by saying that one of his phones doesn’t have a password and Diana knows has the password to the other phone.
“I have never touched her phone with the purpose of snooping through because that is how you build trust and I don’t know whether she touches my phone when I am deep asleep, I will have to ask her about that.”
he concluded.
