“Tsonga wife…why are you shocked by the bling bling now?”
@ANerdReally remarked:
“She kind of looks like Precious Kofi, muhle.”
@MrNaturesdrip argued:
“When you marry, you don't marry for fashion sense; you marry a woman who has the brains to keep the family going. Wiseman is wise.”
@Mini_enhle22 shared:
“Tsongas and fashion, my dear, water and paraffin.”
@SouthElections asked:
“Do you reckon she’d have better taste if she were Zulu?”
@2lee_Babe argued:
“Maybe it is all intentional. Maybe she wants to look different and not look like every other girl on the street.”
@chosenwani suggested:
“Lmao, maybe she is going to a theme party, that is the only explanation that would make sense for what we are seeing here.”
@Qlyv_Mydear asked:
“Where was she going?”
