"The energy in this photo said we made it, and we dressed for the occasion. Bestie is glowing in that graduation gown, and he showed up in full support mode. This is what love looks like."
@kuhleyetu responded:
"Oh, I'm glad they are still together. I was worried when Shudu started this journey; indeed, distance is not a problem when you love each other and are financially stable."

"I like the way they're not present on social media."

"Maps and Shudu make such a cute yet odd couple. This is his first public relationship that lasted so long, coz he is known for his hit-and-run tendencies with industry girls, especially after dating Nomzamo Mbatha and Sho Majozi in the past."
