Veteran Taarab musician Khadija Kopa has revealed that she was not aware of her daughter Zuchu’s recent private wedding to celebrated Bongo star Diamond Platnumz. The quiet ceremony only came to public attention after the couple posted images and videos online, dressed in traditional Islamic attire and surrounded by elders.
Speaking in a recent interview, Khadija admitted that she was caught off guard by the news. She shared that both she and Zuchu’s father were not consulted or included in any of the wedding preparations. According to her, the couple opted to handle the event discreetly and only informed their families after the ceremony had taken place.
Despite her surprise, Khadija expressed her full support for the union. She sent her blessings to the newlyweds and described marriage as a significant step deserving of celebration, even when done quietly. Her message reflected both grace and acceptance of her daughter’s autonomy in making life decisions.
Addressing the absence of Zuchu’s father, Khadija clarified that she and her former partner have long been separated. She added that Zuchu had made the personal decision to be given away by an elder of her choosing—something she fully respected.
The unexpected revelation of the secret wedding has stirred up plenty of chatter among fans and followers, many of whom were shocked that such high-profile figures managed to keep such a big event under wraps.
