The paragraph reads:

"It was 19 May 2012…I went to Gino’s restaurant with my girlfriend at the time, some of the Waratah’s boys, and the cousin of a woman named Rachel Smith. But there was something about her which really got to me…it was the way she carried herself, the sense that there was someone special and not like other women.
"I sent her a Facebook message not long after that, and we began chatting. At first, it was just friends. I was in a relationship at the time, even though it was on and off and not particularly serious."

@ThembaRumbu posted the paragraphs on his Twitter page and captioned it:
