Basetsana Kumalo reflects on her 18 years of marriage

If you’re not sure about whether true love exists or not, just look at Basetsana and Romeo Kumalo. The lovebirds, who are both successful in the business world, are celebrating 18 years of marriage.

Taking to Instagram this week, Bassie shared a heartfelt message to her husband and best friend. The message read, in part: “21 years of being together and 18 years of being married has been my greatest joy. I feel like we grew up together and raised each other…”

18 years ago I walked down the isle with my father in hand to marry the love of my life, my heart person, my inspiration, one who brings me immense joy and pleasure. You looked me deep in my eyes and promised to love me and protect me, and you have lived up to those vows and so much more. You believe in me, you want the best for me, you push me when I doubt myself, you celebrate my achievements like they are your own. You look at me as only YOU can, you laugh at my lame jokes, you go to war for me ….I have never known this kind of love. Thank you for choosing me. I would choose you over many lifetimes.

I love doing this thing called life with you. It’s a great and beautiful adventure, never a dull moment. You are an extraordinary dad to our kids. Wow I marvel at you and how you parent. You are no walk in the park with them but you are so present and engaged. You still make me laugh uncontrollably. 21 years of being together and 18 years of being married has been my greatest joy. Thank you for all that you have taught me. I feel like we grew up together and raised each other, since we were so young when we got married and what we just wanted to do was to be together no matter what.Basetsana and Romeo Kumalo

We wanted to have a family, travel, run businesses, have fun and just be, so many dreams we had in our younger days and so blessed that most by Grace we have been granted. You have given me that and so much more. Ngiyabonga Mbulaz’omnyama, Mashobane, Mntungwa.Basetsana and Romeo Kumalo

Uthando lwakho lungenze umuntu emphakathini. Mina nawe sofa’slahlane. I wish you long life, I wish you eternal joy, I wish you peace, I wish you health and I wish you all that you wish for yourself. Thank you for making me the happiest and content woman. I love you.
