Below are four of our favourite long-term celebrity couples.
Basetsana and Romeo Kumalo
Power couple Basetsana and Romeo Kumalo have been married for almost two decades.
In 2017 December, the couple celebrated their 17th anniversary. They took to social media to share their heartfelt messages to each other. Their love and commitment to each other is by far one of the most inspiring.
“As the years go by, I fall in love with you over and over again,” Basetsana wrote to Romeo.
She thanked him for being her lover, friend, confidant, inspiration, and best friend.
Romeo also expressed his love for Basetsana using a Shakespeare quote. How sweet!

The couple owns Ferguson Films which produces many of the Mzanzi Magic films we love.
They do not only use their films to tell stories about love, but their own lives are a beautiful story of love and power.
