A trend on Twitter in the last couple of days of people sharing screenshots of how their partner shoot their shot in the direct messages (DM’s), with the caption “how it started” to “where we at now”.

Local celebrities such as Cassper Nyovest have also shared how this courtship has helped him. The rapper shared screenshots of how his relationship his baby mama Thobeka Majozi started. The messages are as far back as 2017, the couple already knew they were going to be having a child together back then. Majozi even coyly calls her now-boyfriend “baby daddy”.

The couple had their first child, a son in September. They named him Khotso Izwe Simba Phoolo. Khotso in Setswana means “peace”. Cassper also shot down people who suggested that it took him over three years to get Majozi.

Clapping back to one tweep, he said: “No mother f***er , we just planned our life!!!! We did it when we were ready!!!! And that’s why my kid has rich parents!”
