South Africans love their rugby and beam with pride over the Springboks. You know a player is legendary and much-loved when he even has a nickname.

Tendai Mtawarira, known as ‘The Beast’ married to Kuziva Makore and today they are celebrating 10 years together. Their love story is one of long-distance romance and destiny.

Kuziva Mtawarira took to Instagram to post this sweet Anniversary message. She wrote:

You held my hand looked me in the eye and said it wasn’t good enough for me!!! Me? Good old me, who was I? Did you know something about me I didn’t know? 😆Lol. You rushed the builders to finish the house 4 days before our wedding.

You even had the groomsmen move in furniture the night before the wedding lol. After the wedding, we drove off as Mr and Mrs Mtawarira and as we got to our new home you blindfolded me picked me up ( like in the movies) and you said welcome home my Queen.

 

How do I begin to sum up the last 10 years of our lives? There is too much to talk about, too many memories. I thought long and hard to share this because what I have I hold sacred so anyways here goes.

The day was September the 12th 2010 and I was so excited to walk down the aisle and join our lives together. I was so young and somewhat naive. I took a chance on you, a stranger who called me on the 1st of Jan 2009 and had me at ‘Hello’!!! 😃

In true Tendai fashion you proposed to me a week after meeting me, you built us a home, paid roora and had a wedding in the same year. I remember asking why we were building seeing as though the place we were in was perfectly fine
