Bokang opens up about motherhood

Johannesburg- Bokang Montjane and Siphiwe Tshabalala's lil man has been their greatest blessing. 

Bokang opened up for the first time about being a mom to Drum magazine. 

The former Miss SA and soccer star, who are incredibly private about their personal lives, managed to keep their three-year relationship and Bokang's pregnancy a secret up-until two months ago, when Owethu was born. 

Bokang explained that she and Shabba planned the birth of their baby boy, because they felt that they were ready. 

She says that Owethu has been their greatest gift and blessing to date. 

"It's like my heart has been ripped out of my body and placed right in front of me. It's a beautiful feeling, because when I look at him, I think 'Oh my goodness, this is all me.' My blood is running through his veins. It's a humbling feeling," she told the mag. 

Even though Bokang wouldn't reveal too much about her and Shabba's relationship, she did reveal that he's a great father. 

"He is a hands-on father. He makes me happy because he's a great father," she added. 

There's speculation that Bokang and Shabba are engaged but she wouldn't confirm the news.
