Diana Marua Shares Her Only Wish After Traditional Wedding Ceremony

Content creator Diana Marua has shared her only wish after officially being wed in a traditional wedding: that her mother and her mother-in-law could have been there to witness it.

In a lengthy Instagram post, Marua recalled her difficult upbringing, desperate dating life, and enduring “struggle love” before finally marrying her husband, Bahati. She said that while she is grateful for all the blessings in her life, she can’t help but wish that her mother and mother-in-law could have been there to celebrate with her on her special day.

“If I was given one wish, It would be for our Mums to witness this day and celebrate with us 😭 But God had other plans. They’re watching us in Heaven and I know we’ve made them so proud,” she wrote.

“If you told me 10 years ago that on this Day 07.10.2023, I’d be celebrating my Traditional Ceremony, I would probably laugh out Loud. When you look at me, you see a Lucky girl but you don’t know what it has taken for me to get here. I faced a lot of tough times growing up, I didn’t finish school because there was no money, and begging landlords to give us a few more days was the order of the day, we had a book of Mkopo, kwa duka that we would pay monthly and that was normal for us,” she recalled.

Marua’s story is a reminder that even in the midst of joy, there can still be sadness. It is also a reminder of the importance of cherishing our loved ones while we have them.
