Miss South Africa 2022 Ndavi Nokeri is heading down the aisle after her partner pulled off one of the most breathtaking proposals Mzansi has seen in a while. The beauty queen and podcaster took to her social media pages on 10 November 2026 to share a video of the magical moment, and it's safe to say she had fans and peers completely in their feelings.
The clip opens with Nokeri receiving a dress, hand-delivered ahead of a romantic dinner. The note tucked alongside the dress was enough to move her to tears before the evening had even properly begun.
A night to remember
From there, her partner pulled out all the stops. A violinist set the mood at a stunning lakeside setting, where he then delivered a heartfelt speech before dropping to one knee and popping the question. The video wraps up with the newly engaged couple seated at a dinner table, sharing shy laughter between them while Nokeri wiped away happy tears.
