In the comments beneath Maphephandaba’s post, social media users weighed in with mixed reactions. While some congratulated Sithelo Shozi and her Zimbabwe fiancé, others gushed over her engagement ring.
Here are some of the comments:
bonolo_hard criticised:
“Sithelo deserves to be loved. Thank God there's a guy who still sees her worth. Some of you are commenting nastily after being with different men who never even showed you Durban, but because ke Sithelo, y'all wanna act innocent and clean? Nxa.”
leerhhlophe said:
“I feel like mentioning the Mpisanes. Hey, they put this child through hell. So happy for Sithelo, she deserves to be happy ❤️”
zeemhlungwane argued:
“The majority of married women are married to man that have been with other partners or women before, so I really don't understand why it's an issue with James. It takes time to find the one, so people should stop being negative and be happy for them as a couple, and stop putting other people in their relationship. James is no longer with Faith, Mihlahli, or all these other South African baddies. He's with Sithelo. Congratulations 🎉 to both of you ❤️”
tshidi_teffo remarked:
“Oh, how I wish she and her sister could just make up; this would have been such a moment for them.”
kay_mthembu gushed:
“Oh to be loved, what a rock😍💍 congratulations to Sithelo ❤️”
dr_magoro joked:
"Limpopo and Zimbabwe are neighbours by the way."
