WATCH: Shona Ferguson’s last birthday message to Connie

The Fergusons celebrated the birthday of their matriarch Connie Ferguson on Friday. 

Her daughter Ali Ferguson also turned 20 on Tuesday, and Connie shared a beautiful message to mark the occasion. But for her own birthday, The Queen Mzansi Magic actress shared a video of her late husband Shona Ferguson wishing her a happy birthday on the same day last year. 

Nobody would have thought this would be the last physical birthday message Shona would ever record with his family. He passed away in July 2021 due to Covid-19 complications.
