Nomsa (44) avoided dating Nkosinathi (45) for a while, not knowing he was the man she would spend the rest of her life with.

How they met:

The Lukhele’s met at a church service. Nkosinathi admitted he couldn’t take his eyes off Nomsa and followed her after the service to ask for her phone number. “I could see he was a good man, but not someone I could date. Also, I was in a relationship at that time, Nomsa explained.

Time went by without seeing each other. They bumped into each other in 2003 at choir practice. He asked that they exchange numbers again and this time around, she gave him her number and that’s how it all began.

Challenges:

Nkosinathi fell ill  and was incapacitated for about a year. “He was admitted at the hospital and was there for about two month. He was bound to a wheelchair after he was discharged from hospital,” she elaborated. The second challenge was when they lost their jobs. “Planning the wedding wasn’t easy. But luckily, Nkosinathi had saved some money. He suggested they use this money for the wedding,” she explained.
