Popular Kenyan YouTuber Diana Marua has revealed the inner workings of her co-parenting relationship with Bahati’s baby mama, Yvette Obura. Diana shared her role as the main point of contact between Yvette and her family, highlighting the balance of respect and forgiveness that shapes their interactions.
Diana explained that respect is the foundation of their relationship. “Mama Mueni respects me so much, and she respects my marriage. I also respect her so much, and we have good communication. I think the foundation of all of this was built on respect,” she said.
She also noted that if Yvette wants anything from her family, she goes through Diana rather than Bahati. “If the child wants to come, or she wants to come, she comes through me and not Baha,” Diana explained. She clarified that she only contacts Bahati directly when Yvette is unavailable or specifically asks her to.
Diana emphasized that their priority is coexisting peacefully and raising Mueni in a positive environment. “Separating from someone is not easy, but life happens and we move on. We chose to forgive. For us, it is about respect, forgiveness, and seeing how we can nurture the person she brought into this world, Mueni, so that he grows and has a good life,” she said.
Bahati also weighed in, admitting that disagreements occur between him and Yvette, and Diana often mediates. “They quarrel, then we call each other Mama Mueni and console each other. I tell her not to worry; I will deal with him,” he said. He added that despite any differences, they co-parent as a united team, prioritizing Mueni’s well-being.
In addition to her co-parenting role, Yvette has been seen bonding with Diana’s children. She has been spotted teaching Diana’s daughter, Heaven, how to make burgers, showing care and patience, and earning admiration for her respectful and kind interactions.
Diana’s transparency provides insight into how co-parenting can work with maturity and communication, even in complex family dynamics. Their story highlights that forgiveness, respect, and a child-centered approach can help maintain harmony between all parties.
