Rapper AKA has finally decided to settle down but his fans just can’t believe it.
The rapper confirmed his engagement to his 22-year-old girlfriend, Nellie Tembe, on Tuesday when he posted a picture of her hand with an engagement ring and no caption at all.
Tembe posted the same image on her own Instagram account along with the caption: “On this day I said YES to the love of my life and my best friend. Words cannot describe how grateful I am to be your life partner, even through the highs & lows you have always stood by me & I thank you Kiernan Jarryd Forbes for loving me wholeheartedly & never giving up on us. Cheers to the beginning of forever. 4L boo.”

Having a baby doesn’t mean one partner must be always dragged in the other partner’s affairs. Let’s respect DJ Zinhle, plz. Let’s respect another woman and congratulations the other.
