Fantana’s beef with Zari Hassan
As reported on K24 Digital, Diamond fell out with his Ugandan baby mama, Zari Hassan over his fling with Fantana.

The 42-year-old also blasted Fantana bragging that she was a self-made billionaire and that Diamond shouldn’t compare her to the Ghanaian model.
Zari also claimed that Fantana had failed as a musician and that she was still looking horrible after five Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) procedures.

“Do you know what it means to be a billionaire? I guess they are just handing out billionaire status title for free
“Someone please give this lady her medication, 5 bbls? You literally have reconstructed your entire body to look like me. Have you seen where your belly buttom is?” Fantana wrote in part.
The Ghanaian also mocked Zari for marrying Shakib Lutaaya who is 12 years younger than her, saying that she married a high school boy.
“Failed career? What did you accomplish when you were 25? You found access t an iPhone and bought internet and build a fake life and let’s not forget your sex tape
“…since you think you’re better than everyone and now you’re married to a high school boy. I look like a she/he? You literally shake anytime you see me, be for real,” Fantana added.
