Dumi Always Knew He Was Going To Marry Zipho
When news broke that Dumi Mkokstad tied the knot recently, many of his female fans were heartbroken that the gospel singer was now officially off the marketing.

Although some females believe that there might be a slight chance that Dumi might one day look their way. Dumi has made it clear that he has eyes for only one woman – Dr Ziphozenkosi Mthembu aka Mrs Mkokstad.
Speaking to Isolezwe, Dumi shared that he always knew that Zipho would be the woman he would one day marry, ever since they were kids.

“We became friends at the age of eight-years-old, at the age of sixteen, I told my family that I would one day marry Zipho, but they didn’t take me seriously as I was only sixteen and we were friends.”

Dumi further shared that he first wanted to work hard before he asked for Zipho’s hand in marriage, and now that he’s well established, he just knew that it was now or never.

Dumi is adamant that he has eyes only for Zipho and that he cannot wait to have children with her, but they are in no rush as yet and will accept any blessing that is given to them by God.

His fans have become so welcoming towards Zipho that Dumi may be a bit jealous of all the attention his wife is receiving now.
