DBN Gogo and Focalistic put dating rumours to bed
Elsewhere, Briefly News recently reported that the cat is out of the bag, and Mzansi is pleasantly surprised by the newest revelation to come from Celebville.
If there were ever questions about DBN Gogo and Focalistic's relationship status, the two have served up the answer in the most surprising way possible. The big reveal came a day after the curtain closed on Valentine's Day, courtesy of a short video clip the Dakiwe hitmaker posted on social media.
While there were plenty of gifts, including a teddy bear, sumptuous treats and designer brands sent her way ahead of V Day, it was anybody's guess who they were from. But after her latest tweet, the love parade is there for everyone to see.
