Tanzanian singer and music sensation Juma Jux has opened up about the early days of his relationship with his wife, Priscilla, revealing that he had no idea she was a celebrity when they first met. The revelation comes as fans and followers expressed curiosity about how two prominent figures in the entertainment scene crossed paths and fell in love.
In a heartfelt and candid conversation, Juma Jux recounted the beginnings of their relationship, emphasising that their connection blossomed naturally, without fame or public attention playing a role. He described how his admiration for Priscilla started purely from noticing her personality, beauty, and charm, rather than any knowledge of her celebrity status.
Love at first sight
Juma Jux said, “Priscilla, I’m so happy. I’m in love. I love my wife so much. I love my family. When I first met her in Rwanda, I didn’t know she was a celebrity. I just saw her with Chioma… and I thought, wow, this girl, she’s beautiful. We started talking, and it was just amazing. Even after the basketball game, she never revealed she was famous. I saw her followers and thought, okay, she’s popular, but I didn’t know she was this big.”
He continued to share details about how their bond grew organically over time, highlighting that fame was never a factor in their initial attraction. “We went to Zanzibar, took pictures, and everything just grew from there. Chioma, our matchmaker, saw everything from the start. Honestly, meeting Priscilla was love at first sight. I just knew she was the one,” he said, reflecting on the natural progression of their romance.
The couple’s journey beyond fame
Juma Jux explained that their relationship was grounded in genuine connection rather than the glitz and glamour often associated with celebrities. He described shared moments, travels, and mutual understanding as the foundations that strengthened their bond. The singer stressed that the love they share is authentic, and that discovering Priscilla’s celebrity status later did not change the love he felt for her from the very beginning.
The couple’s story has resonated with fans across social media platforms, sparking discussions about authentic love and the idea that true connections often transcend status, popularity, or public perception. Many have praised Juma Jux and Priscilla for maintaining a relationship built on respect, understanding, and genuine affection rather than public image.
