Diamond appeared in episode 1 of Young, Famous & African and expressed that things have changed "emotionally" for him. He opened up about his changed dynamics with his children in front of the cameras. Soon, he was joined by DJ, who asked him why he had not come to the wedding.
Diamond had his explanation, but DJ did not seem convinced. He confronted Diamond and said:
"I won't lie to you. I was worried. I thought you were jealous. You know me. I have always said you are in love with Zari still."
Young, Famous & African star Diamon Platnumz explains why he did not show up at Zari's wedding
Zari Hassan's ex-husband, Diamond Platnumz decided not to attend Zari's wedding with Shakib in Young, Famous, & African. He claimed that "he was not invited" which was a lie as Naked DJ mentioned. DJ said during the confessional that there was a whole seat with his name on it, so he did not understand why Diamond was lying.
Diamond explained himself and said that he expected a certain kind of gesture from Zari, considering the type of relationship they shared. He also expressed that Zari disrespected him on social media and "canceled" him from the family. However, DJ believed that somewhere Diamond was still jealous of Zari getting married to Shakib, and maybe that is why he did not show up at the wedding.
Diamond came up with a salty reply, saying "You don't feel jealous about something that you could get if want it". Young, Famous & African star then told the cameras with utmost confidence:
"Trust me if I want my family back, I can have it. I mean it. If I want her back, I can have her back. It's just a matter of doing this...," Diamond snaps his fingers as he ends the confession.
