This happened live on Gagasi’s FM’s drive show while Babes was in an interview to promote her upcoming album.

“I would like to say, I, Shimora Mr Mandla Maphumulo, it’s been a long time, we have been together for many years,” Mampintsha says to Babes as he puts the ring in her finger.

“I want you to make me the happiest man alive.

“Be my wife, Ma Simelane. It’s been years, it’s been a long time, my love,” he says to Babes.

A blushing and clearly surprised Babes “Ngempela (It's true)”, before she says “yes”, and the room erupts in celebration.

Minutes after the proposal, the Wololo hit maker took to her Instagram page and re-posted the clip of her engagement.

“Within a blink of an eye and now I’m left speechless, the journey wasn’t easy but we stuck together through thick and thin. Ngiyabonga Mashimane,”
