South African actress Sivenathi Mabuya has shared some very exciting news — she’s expecting her first child!
Sive posted a sweet photo on social media showing off her baby bump and wrote: “Bump’s out the bag … thank you for your kindness. We couldn’t be happier.”
Her announcement was met with love and joy from fans and fellow celebrities. Actress Hope Mbele was thrilled and said: “The way I wanted to jump when I saw you at the premiere but I was like let me wait till she announces. So happy for you, my love!!! Congratulations mama!!!!”
Bontle Modiselle shared her excitement too, writing: “Sooo gorgeous!!! CONGRATULATIONS beautiful.”
Nefisa Mkhabela couldn’t hold back her emotions: “OH MY GOOOODDNESSSS! THE INSTANT TEARS OF JOY THAT JUST CAME DOWN DRIPPING! Congratulations mama.”
This happy news comes just after Sive recently celebrated a special milestone in her marriage. In May, she took to Instagram to wish her husband, Aphiwe Bukani, a happy wedding anniversary. The couple has been married for three years.
Sive shared a touching message: “17 years your pursuit 5 years your girl 3 years your wife And I wouldn’t have it any other way. Happy anniversary baba, I love you @apiwebukani.”
Sive and Aphiwe tied the knot in 2022 in a traditional wedding ceremony held in the Eastern Cape. But their love story goes way back. Before the wedding, they had their lobola negotiations, which Sive proudly shared online.
Their love journey is truly one of patience and destiny. Sive once told a fan that she knew Aphiwe was the one because he had waited 12 years to take her out for ice cream after asking her back in 2008.
“He was patient enough to wait 12 years for that ice cream date,” she said.
Now, the couple is preparing for their biggest adventure yet — becoming parents. Congratulations to the happy couple as they get ready to welcome their bundle of joy!
