In today’s social media era, an unfollow can speak louder than words. When it happens between high-profile couples, the digital distance becomes its own drama. Zari Hassan and her husband Shakib Lutaaya have recently turned their social media silence into a public showdown—one that’s both eyebrow-raising and surprisingly relatable.
1. The Silent Wound: Unfollowed and Unspoken
Reports confirm that Zari and Shakib have unfollowed each other on Instagram—an unmistakable sign of tension between them. (Trouble in Paradise! Zari Hassan and Shakib unfollow each other.) But why the digital distance? The answer starts deeper.
2. A Surprise Guest and a Stirring Conversation
The publicized rift traces back to a family moment—their daughter’s birthday—involving Zari’s ex, Diamond Platnumz. He unexpectedly showed up at the celebration, causing confusion and silent ripples. According to Zari, Shakib wasn’t even informed. (Zari and Shakib’s Love on the Rocks — unfollow sparked after Diamond’s surprise.)
Zari later explained: “If I wanted to go back to Diamond, I could. But I chose my husband.” Her statement hinted at frustration and an emotional disconnect—not just online, but deeply personal.
3. From Private Pain to Public Airwaves
Then came the moment that took it all public.
During a live radio segment on NRG Radio (as featured by Pulse and Mpasho), Zari called into the show with one simple—yet scathing—question:
“Babe, good morning—where are you?”
Shakib, unprepared, replied: “I’m on the radio.” Fumes flew when Zari punctuated the call: “You had ten minutes to drive and couldn’t send a good morning text?”
Their blunt exchange turned into an online storm—some viewers sympathized with Zari’s need for affection, while others found the confrontation dramatic, to say the least.
4. Why It Matters to Us
-
Social Media Doesn’t Lie
In relationships, an unfollow signals deeper hurt or unspoken tension—even when words remain unsaid. -
Long-Distance Love Has Its Frictions
Zari in South Africa, Shakib in Uganda—distance complicates communication, and small slights can feel much larger. -
The Pressure of Public Eyes
When your relationship unfolds both at home and online, private frustrations can become public challenges.
5. The Takeaway
Zari’s good-morning showdown wasn’t just about a missed text—it was the flashpoint in a silent, simmering drama. Their digital disconnection serves as a reminder: relationships are built (and undone) in both hybrid realities—offline moments and online signals. And just because drama plays out in the spotlight doesn’t make it any less real.
