DIVA Gemma Griffiths’ announcement of her engagement has triggered a wave of excitement among Zimbabweans, heartbreak among others while others have given it a touch of comedy.
The ‘Maita Basa Baba’ hitmaker took to her Facebook page to share the special news, posting a photo of her engagement ring with her partner visible in the background.
The announcement quickly captured the attention of fans, many of whom flooded her comments section with congratulatory messages and light-hearted reactions.
Some of her fans jokingly said they thought the diva was in a romantic relationship with Winky D, Baba Harare and Nutty O.
Gemma’s fans went to the extent of tagging the three musicians.
In her post, Gemma revealed she had kept the news private for some time before deciding to share it publicly.
“I’ve held this news for a long time, but it’s time to share it with you all.
“God gave me a man to pray with and walk this life with, and I said YES,” she wrote.
The announcement sparked a wave of celebration among her followers, with many expressing joy and admiration.
Others reacted humorously joking about losing their chance to win the heart of the popular artist.
One fan, Muzondo, commented:
“What a remarkable milestone, congratulations! Wishing you all the best.”
Patience Mtisi-Mtetwa added:
“Aaaw big congratulations to you and yours Gemma! And for those asking who the guy is and making weird suggestions, for goodness sake, can you not see her fiancé, the white man in the photo background there? So, no, it’s not Winky D, not Baba Harare, not Nutty O.”
