We met at University in 2010 but only started talking when we saw each other at one of our friends birthday party. We both studied to be opera singers and when we we're rehearsing for an opera Cobus was a real gentleman and came to fetch me everyday at my house to go to rehearsals and he took me back home as well... He asked me to be his girlfriend at one of our rehearsals backstage...
We dated for 6 years before Cobus decided to pop the question...
I was in Cape Town for work and Cobus came to fetch me so that we can go on holiday with his parents. So we met up at Blouberg strand because he told me he had car problems and when I got there I was so worried about the car that i didn't realize all the blankets and things on the wood coach next to the beach. He took my hand and he told me to come and sit on the coach and as i sat down he started singing... Thats when I new what is happening...
We both sang at our wedding to each other and that is the best of all
Yes we did go on honeymoon... It was a surprise everybody new except me so when we got to the airport he showed me the plain ticket. We went to Phuket Thailand
