Bahati Credits Wife Diana for His Transformation as Ex Yvette Obura Finds New Love

Controversial Kenyan musician Kevin Bahati Kioko has publicly admitted that his wife, Diana Marua, changed him. The musician made the emotional admission in a long social media post dedicated to his wife on her birthday.

His loving message coincided with a major life announcement from his ex-partner and baby mama, Yvette Obura, who was getting engaged to her new man.

The Change Diana Brought

In the heartfelt birthday tribute, Bahati addressed the common public narrative that his personality and life shifted after meeting Diana. He affirmed that the rumours were true.

Bahati explained that the transformation was profound and fundamental.

“They say Bahati changed since he met Diana… yes, you changed me! You Changed Me from a Boy to a Man. You Changed Me from Loneliness to Love. You Changed me from Just Living to a Life Full of Purpose.”

He went on to credit Diana for changing his identity from the stage name Bahati to a "Husband" and from the surname Kioko to a "Father". He added that their union has raised a "Wonderful & Beautiful Family".

“I said yes to the man who made me believe in love again,” Yvette wrote. “I’m letting go of past pain and failed relationships. The right one God brought my way,” she captioned the lovely video.
