Congratulatory messages are to Maps Maponyane on his ‘engagement’ to former Miss SA Shudu Musida. Except, the announcement of the news – via a publication – is the first he has heard of it.
Despite keeping their romance on the low, the beauty queen and the screen star have been romantically linked since 2022. Earlier this year, the “couple” went on a baecation to the Seychelles.
Last month, fans speculated that Maps had “soft-launched” his romance with Shudu, who was his date to the Durban July.
On his X account, Maps Maponyane had tweeps talking after he reacted to a TimesLive report that claimed he and Shudu Musida were set to wed.
“Imagine finding out you’re getting married on Twitter?” Maps tweeted.

According to the publication, Maps’ family sent a delegation to Shudu’s village in Limpopo to ask for her hand in marriage.
A “source” told the publication: “Maps is serious about building a family unit with Shudufhadzo, and he has contemplating on his decision for a while now, and it’s finally here. He can’t hide his intentions any longer as wedding bells are looming”.
On X, many South Africans were amused by Maps Maponyane’ reaction to learning about his upcoming “nuptials.”
Even his celeb pals were quick to “congratulate” him on the “happy news.”
Congrats my friend!

Back in 2022, Shudu Musida and Maps Maponyane first sparked rumours that they were more than acquaintances.
As brand ambassadors of property development group Tricolt, the duo had been booked to work together on several campaigns. Over the years, fans noticed how the duo publicly supported one another at events. They’ve also left flirty messages under each other’s Instagram posts.
Fast forward to 2024, and the private “couple” would go on a baecation to the Seychelles.
Last month, they went “Instagram official” at the Durban July.
Is the next step down the aisle?
