Tamia and Andile Mpisane's 'The Royal AM baby' themed event seems to have been inspired by the Mpisane family's football club name.


Tamia Mpisane and her husband Andile Mpisane celebrated their baby shower with friends and family, with a royal-themed party over the weekend.

The themed event, titled “The Royal AM baby”, seems to have been inspired by the Mpisane family’s football club name.

The model was dressed in an elegant black dress completed with a stoned bodice and feathered, layered skirt reminiscent of a ballet tutu.

Durban-based businesswoman Shauwn Mkhize and her son Andile Mpisane are currently the owners of the Durban football club, Royal AM.

Tamia Mpisane (formerly Louw) is a South African model and social media influencer.
