Dr Musa Mthombeni Practices “Handbag Duty” Walk in Hilarious Video

• Dr Musa Mthombeni charmed Mzansi with his signature wit in one of his latest videos with his wife, Liesl Laurie
• Fans could barely contain their laughter when, during a shopping trip, he practised his "handbag duty" walk to prepare for when he needs to help his wife
• His video was refreshingly relatable, so much so that even those who've criticised his lover-boy antics were amused, with the cheating allegations long forgotten

One thing about Dr Musa Mthombeni, he will make just about anyone want to fall in love and get married.

The former YoTV presenter-turned-medical doctor is married to former Miss South Africa Liesl Laurie, and together, they've created an almost picture-perfect life for themselves, often leaving followers gushing over their sweet romance and the doctor's public displays of affection. However, according to Musa, being a husband isn't all that it's cracked up to be.

On 5 May 2026, during a shopping trip in Amsterdam, he gave fans a glimpse into the work that goes into his role as a husband, where he decided to get a feel of his wife's potential new handbags as he would one day be required to carry them for her.

The video captured the couple in matching denim outfits, where Liesl was seen eyeing several Yves Saint Laurent (YSL) handbags. It soon switched to Musa practising how he would walk and carry the purses around when the time comes. He tried out different-sized bags to familiarise himself with the fabric and weight, saying he was preparing himself.

"When baddies are up, husbands are down! I am tired of suffering, so I’m making the decisions now. I’m the captain now!"

The hilarious video referenced a common occurrence among couples, where ladies would often ask their partners to relieve them and carry their handbag for them.

For Musa, it's clear that this has happened far too many times that he decided to physically prepare himself.
