Director Akin Motoso revealed the news on social media expressing excitement.
So by now we all know that Mzansi’s latest celebrity couple to come out with their relationship is media personalities Maps Maponyane and Nomzamo Mbatha. The two have kept their relationship in curtains for quite along time and have on many occasions denied the fact that they have chemistry in between stating that they're BESTIES. Nomzamo has been hanging with Maps ever since her ex-boyfriend Norman went out to buy milk and never came back.
While walking on to the stage to receive his Sexiest Man Award at the YOU Spectacular Awards this past Saturday, Maps walked past Nomzamo and for the first time planted a passionate kiss on her lips. The kiss that left Nomzamo visibly blushing and left the crowd cheering on the new love birds.
