When you search for information about this actor, it is clear just how famous he is. Fans and viewers of his shows seem really interested to know more about him. So, is Kope Makgae married?
Well, Kope is technically but not officially married. He lives with his fiancée, who is only known by the name Mpotseng. The couple is blessed with three kids, including twins: Zoey (a girl) and Zoyl (a boy).
Unlike her husband, very little is known about Mpotseng’s personal life. What is clear, though, is that the two first met in 2015 through a common friend and got engaged in 2017 after being blessed with the twins. Certainly, everyone is waiting for the big day!
Admittedly, Kope’s social life thrived on a free-bird mentality, making it difficult for him to consider settling in a serious relationship. However, the birth of Kope Makgae twins impressed upon him the need to do things differently.
"Relationships seemed like too much of an effort, but when the twins came, I knew for sure that the time had come for me to make her my wife," he said.

Education and career

Since his high school time, Kope had manifested all the hallmarks of a gifted actor, particularly due to his spontaneous comedic flair.
Some dreams never come easy, and his passion for media was no exception. To raise money for his college, Kope had to hustle through some very humble business ventures. For example, before graduating from high school, he sold Kota sandwiches to his colleagues. After that, he moved on to supply pencils and pens to schools all around Limpopo.
At this time, it seemed so clear that Kope’s hustle was picking new momentum. Immediately, he dropped the pen and pencil business; he ventured into catering and sewing curtains for senior citizen's homes.
Using the hustle proceeds, he enrolled at the University of Limpopo, where he graduated with a degree in media studies and then moved to Johannesburg to actualize his dream to join the entertainment industry.
From Limpopo university, he got a chance to work in a modeling & acting agency, and in no time, he was a common face on popular commercial ads. Television roles would follow soon, and these included the role he played in Ashes to Ashes as a priest.
