Singer Carol Nantongo lit up social media on Wednesday, 19th November 2025, after sharing photos confirming her engagement to Delan, the son of legendary vocalist Mesach Ssemakula. The announcement immediately stirred excitement online — along with a wave of speculation from critics questioning how long the relationship had existed.

But Nantongo quickly set the record straight.

In a heartfelt message accompanying the engagement photos, she revealed that their love story goes back eight years, dismissing claims that the relationship was rushed or recently formed.

“The last slide is the year our journey began. Young, intentional, and full of hope. Eight years later, it still feels like yesterday,” she wrote. “I’m not bragging, but I couldn’t have found a better partner for a lifetime. I found my person, and today I get to call him my fiancé.”

The proposal, which was attended by close family, friends and a few fellow artistes, marked a deeply emotional milestone for the couple. Nantongo described the moment as a symbol of the bond they have nurtured over the years.

“This ring isn’t just beautiful — it represents the journey we’ve walked together,” she added. “A loving man who chose our forever. Seeing you step into this moment with a ready and whole heart is the greatest affirmation of the life we’ve been building side by side.”

She closed her message with a touching dedication to her fiancé:

“To my future husband: You are my heart. Thank you for giving me this breathtaking beginning… C & D.”

With the engagement now public, fans are eagerly awaiting what comes next for the couple — and for one of the music industry’s most admired voices as she steps into a new chapter of love and commitment.
