Last month, a wedding invitation believed to be from the couple was shared by the Instagram blog, Maphepha Ndaba.
The wedding, according to the shared invitation, was supposed to take place in Mmabatho, North West, on 16 March.
The blogger later reported that the couple’s wedding was postponed to 6 April because the bride’s home was still being renovated.
At the time, Phoolo took to X to reply to a comment asking about his wedding and said he also found out on social media that he was getting married.
You’re just like me. I also found out online. They chose the date and venue for me and invited me to my own wedding. Le me know if you find anything. At least bang thlopetse chippi so ke happy ka seo (they chose a beautiful woman for me, so I’m happy about that).

There were never rumours about the two dating as it was known that Phoolo was involved with Thobeka Majozi, who the mother of his son.
