Stormers rugby player Wandile Simelane is officially off the market, having recently paid lobola for his now-wife, Bianca Coster.
Bianca is an actress and internet personality, also famously recognised as the face behind the profile picture of Chris Excel, an online troll on X (formerly Twitter).
The actress shared glimpses of their special day with her followers on Instagram.
In the video, Bianca documented her journey from her workplace on Friday, the day before the lobola ceremony, as she travelled to Eswatini.
The following day, the ceremony took place at her grandmother’s home, capturing the essence of this meaningful occasion.
She captioned the video: “Promise kept, Ngiyabonga Myeni Wam,” which translates to “Thank you, my husband.”
