Superstar and socialite of note who is known to her legion of fans as the miserably single Queen Moroka of popular soapie Generations got married on Tuesday 20 December to her sweetheart, well, so far we only know she married a certain Harrington. We shall dig later on the man who is making our Queen so happy.
Second time lucky: Sophie Ndaba walks down the aisle
The wedding, which was a surprise wedding, saw the creme-de-la-creme of SA celebs witnessing Sophie's big day. Sophie only told her guests that she was having a Thanks Giving ceremony (possibly to deflate media attention) only for them to be surprised when they got to the venue.
BFFs: Designer Gert Johan Coetzee, Sophie Ndaba-Harrington and Connie Ferguson
We hope Sophie invited the Drum magazine to her big day so we can get to see what really went down. If not, as her fans, we humbly request her that she sell the wedding pictures to Drum.
Symbolic: Gert helping Sophie descend down to true love
Sophie's former Generations co-star, Connie Ferguson, was the bride’s maid of hunour.
Together forever: Sophie and her man couldn’t hide their joy
This is Sophie Ndaba's second marriage. Her first marriage to fellow actor Themba Ndaba ended up in a divorce back in 2007. Rumours of Sophie cheating on her husband with actress Kamogelo Mampe's man, who (Kamogelo) played Palesa in Muvhango, were all over Mzansi from rural KZN to posh Sandton. Both Sophie and Themba squashed the rumours and insisted there was no third party involved.
Twitter buzz: Yesterday Twitter went gaga over Sophie’s surprise wedding
It is worth noting that in late 2010, Sophie was reported to be dating singer Lagosh Tshepo Mashile and they even appeared in the tabloids claiming to be in love. However, speaking to the Move! magazine in October 2010, Sophie said the papers lied all because they just want to see her happy. Indeed, it isn't only the tabloids that have been dying to see Sophie happily-in-love, let alone married to her Prince, such that in January 2011, Makisto even wrote Our celebs wishes for 2011. In the article, I wrote: "For 2011, we wish Sophie Ndaba all the best in the love department." And our wishes came true. We are so ecstatic that our Queen has finally found true happiness.
Throughout her media interviews with newspapers, magazines and bloggers, Sophie maintained she still believed in true love, that her prince charming was out there who would come and whisk her away to love-heaven where she will live happily ever after. We guess dreams do come true and all you gotta do is believe.
More Twitter buzz: Editor-cum actress Khosie and Cosmopolitan mag’s newly appointed editor Sbu Mpungose joined in the Twitter action
On Sophie's wedding day, her guests took to Twitter to express their excitement. Congratulations to Sophie Ndaba-Harrington and we wish her all the best! Talk about ending the year on a super high note.
