Miss SA’s Mia Le Roux Reveals How She Met Her Fiancé Luke Tenoever

• Beauty queen Mia Le Roux has opened up about her relationship with her long-term boyfriend, Luke Tenoever
• This comes after the reigning Miss South Africa announced on her social media account on Tuesday, 8 July 2025, that she's engaged
• South Africans and fans of the popular Miss SA took to social media this week to congratulate her on her engagement

Current Miss SA Mia Le Roux recently opened up about her romantic relationship with her fiancé Luke Tenoever.

Le Roux, who made history when she was crowned the first deaf winner in 2024, reveals how she and Tenoever met and fell in love.

The beauty queen reveals in an interview with TshisaLIVE that she met her fiancé on an apple farm to celebrate New Year's a few years ago.

When her friends went for a swim just before midnight, she planned to jump without going all in to prevent her hearing aid from getting wet.

“But when we leapt, I realised I’d miscalculated, my head went under and my hearing aid stopped working," says Le Roux.

She climbed out of the dam, walked back to the house to fix her hearing aid. Luke noticed right away, went over, and asked what was wrong, and she explained.

He walked her back to the house, and when they got through a small forest to reach the house, he stopped walking, took a step back, looked at her, and signed:

"You are beautiful," she said.

Entertainment channel PopPulseSA recently shared photos on X of Le Roux's engagement on social media.

"Congratulations to reigning Miss South Africa Mia Le Roux on her engagement," wrote the channel.
