Daniella Atim, the wife of renowned singer Jose Chameleone, has been making public statements hinting at discord in their relationship. On her 39th birthday, she posted a hopeful message on Instagram, expressing anticipation for her future relationships or marriage. She emphasized her desire for a love that doesn’t entail suffering or unreasonable trials, urging herself to let go of past pain to embrace new beginnings.
Back in 2020, a voice note purportedly from Daniella circulated online, revealing her discontent with her marriage to Jose Chameleone. She expressed her intention to build a house in Uganda, away from Kampala, citing dissatisfaction with her husband’s behavior, whom she referred to as immature.
In August 2022, following reports of singer Weasel, Jose Chameleone’s brother, allegedly assaulting his partner Sandra Teta, Daniella attributed the incident to their mother, Prossy Mayanja. She accused Prossy of enabling her sons’ violent behavior and urged her to intervene, emphasizing the need for equal protection for both sons and daughters-in-law.
Prossy Mayanja refuted rumors of Daniella’s separation from Chameleone, asserting their love for each other and dismissing claims of discord. However, Daniella later revealed struggles with her in-laws regarding the upbringing of their five children, particularly their insistence on having a male firstborn. She described her efforts to conform to traditional expectations while asserting her own values, eventually limiting her children’s interactions with their paternal grandparents.
In January 2023, when a video surfaced of Chameleone engaging in a confrontation with a motorcycle taxi rider, Daniella publicly condemned violence, affirming zero tolerance. By October 2023, another voice note, purportedly Daniella’s, circulated online, alleging Chameleone’s excessive drinking and late-night returns home. She claimed to have given him an ultimatum, choosing between alcohol and their family, ultimately leaving due to his continued drinking habits.
On July 4, 2023, Daniella expressed gratitude to the United States on its Independence Day, acknowledging the country as a place of personal freedom.
