‘BEAUTIFUL COUPLE: MANIE LIBBOK POSTS HIS FIANCEE VERNA-LEE ARRIES
Manie Libbok and his high school sweetheart, Verna-Lee Arries are one in many favourite Springbok couples. Much like Eben Etzebeth and Anlia, and Handre Pollard and his wife Marise who are pregnant, the lovely couple is also expected to celebrate once more following their recent Word Cup victory in Paris, France. However, they will be celebrating their union by walking down the aisle.

Libbok announced that he had gone down on one knee and proposed on 1 July via an Instagram post. The love birds are seemingly happier than ever as this time around, Libbok has worn his heart on his sleeve again and decided to share his happiness with the world as he gushed over the Springbok WAG by posting photos of him and her on his feed.

“My happy place 🤍,” Libbok captioned the photos.

In the photos, the duo can be seen dressed in matching khakhi t-shits and black sunglasses as they posed for the camera side-by-side in a parking-lot. The two met at Outeniqua High School in George in the Western Cape, where Libbok joined in Grade 11.

“She caught my eye from the word go to be honest. I just wanted to be close to her,” Libbok said in an interview with The Insider SA.

“We were in the same business class and that’s where we met. He was very shy and quiet and I’m very bubbly so I was the first one talking to him,” Lee-Arries said in the same interview.
