Inside Bokang and Siphiwe's love story

Johannesburg- Bokang Montjane and Siphiwe Tshabalala's love story is nothing short of a fairytale. 

The former Miss SA recently appeared on Katch It With Khanyi, where she opened up about falling head-over-heels in love with Siphiwe. 

Both Siphiwe and Bokang, who are known to be super private about their personal lives, have recently started becoming more open about their lives -  especially on social media. 

It seems like becoming parents has had something to do with this.

When Khanyi Mbau asked Bokang about her whirlwind romance, Bokang was a bit shy, but did say that they started off as friends but then grew to love each other and now have a beautiful baby together.

"We met for the first time at Kaya FM in 2011. Siphiwe was leaving the station after an interview and I was arriving for mine. We ended up taking pictures together because he asked for one, and then when he asked for my number I refused," Bokang explained.

She added that Siphiwe actually stole her number to get in touch with her.

"Yes he stole my numbers. He asked the people at Kaya FM who obviously refused, but after much begging and pleading, Siphiwe managed to get my number," she added.

Khanyi also quizzed Bokang about what it's like to date a soccer player, but Bokang says that never bothered her. 

"People are afraid of dating soccer players because they are considered to be players. Yes, he's a public figure and a lot more women throw themselves at him, but I fell in love with Siphiwe, not the soccer player," she said. 

And, the rest as they say, is history!
