On Tuesday, he revealed on Breakfast with Martin Bester that his girlfriend accepted the proposal.
The Pretoria man also shared that Sunday, the day of the proposal, was the 10th anniversary of his wife's death. He believed it was time for him to move on and therefore proposed to his girlfriend, Prudence.
The pair was surprised by the Breakfast with Martin Bester listeners after receiving generous sponsors for their special day, which included a ring, a wedding dress, and much more.
