Fan-favourite TV couple Dorothy and Molefe (Motlatsi Mafatshe), will seal their “forever yena” on the e.tv top-rated daily drama starting on Thursday night in a two-episode affair.In real life, the actor, director, and TV producer is officially off-the-market after fiancé Rashaka Muofhe popped the question in April.

“I don’t want to lie, I wasn’t expecting the proposal that day. I was on set shooting and I remember being told to meet someone at the Soweto Towers [in Orlando East]. I went there and to my surprise, my fiancé was standing there ready to pop the question,” she said.

“I was in Dorothy’s clothes when my soon-to-be husband proposed. It was a mess of a proposal but definitely one of my most memorable moments because of how private it was. That moment was private… just for him and I but I celebrated our news with our friends and family at the weekend.

“I love the fact that he chose to make the moment private to us so that it’s forever engraved in my heart and mind which I appreciate the most.”The 41-year-old actor plans to have her African traditional wedding to her partner of two years in September and a Western white wedding in November.

“Walking down the aisle as Dorothy felt like a rehearsal and in that moment as we were shooting it became a reality for me. In a way, I could point out how it feels to walk down and what to expect,” she said, laughing.

“I know now how tight my gown should be and which shoes to wear. Of course, I was shooting which is completely different from what I’ll go through at my real wedding day but it showed me the amount of time and energy that will be required for the upcoming day.”

Dorothy and Molefe through their storyline have mirrored the love story of many lovebirds in the township, something Mukwevho prides herself with.

“I am very decisive as a person. So, my wedding dress is already in the process of being made. I’ve already selected the venues and it’s all systems go at this point,” she said.

“Marriage is a huge step in one’s life and speaking on Dorothy’s behalf, she never imagined that such a thing would happen to her. She thought she was not due but she found a man, who a lot of people don’t understand how she survives him because he’s often perceived as a nut case. But somehow these two fell in love in the most honest and genuine way.
