But neither of them would ever get to marry Andiswa Ngoyi (33) because she would soon be dead.
One of her boyfriends, a taxi driver, allegedly lost his mind and stabbed her to death in Tsakane, Ekurhuleni, on Monday.
Andiswa’s friend, Nombulelo Mathebula, claimed the taximan changed Andiswa’s body into clean clothes and took her to hospital, claiming she had killed herself.
However, doctors became suspicious after noticing deep wounds on her forehead. Nombulelo said Andiswa had scars all over her body from eight years of abuse.
She said Nombulelo met the second man last year but the taximan wouldn’t let go. The new boyfriend, Johannes Maboya (39), told Daily Sun it was a race to pay lobola.
