Zari Hassan has caused a stir on social media with a cryptic post about men secretly starting new families. This comes just days after a public fallout with her husband, Shakib Cham Lutaaya. On Instagram, Zari noted that while men might secretly establish new families without their partners knowing, women quietly make investments.

“Women are secretly investing while men are secretly building families,” she stated.


She also suggested that this discrepancy creates an imbalance between men and women in relationships.

“Take a seat, we are not on the same level,” she added, without further elaboration.

This post came after Zari and Shakib had a public argument that became widely known. Reactions have been conflicting; some have speculated that her remarks are a reflection of what the community has seen, while others think they are the result of personal experience.


Zari recently attacked Shakib for her fears following an argument over Diamond, her ex-partner, attending their daughter Tiffah's birthday party in Pretoria. Zari was irritated by Shakib's perception of Diamond as a rival and asked what he brings to their partnership.

She added that she opted to stay with Shakib in spite of attention from well-known people, including presidential hopefuls.

Shakib responded by denouncing claims that Zari provides him with financial help and calling her a miser. He rejected the idea that he gains financially from Zari, saying that the only money he ever received from her was $2,000 of the $40,000 she made while traveling to Tanzania.
