Maps Maponyane & Nomzamo Mbatha celebrate two years

For a while now, Nomzamo Mbatha and Maps Maponyane have had us wondering if they’re an item or not.

The besties, who are constantly supporting each other, just refuse to confirm what we might already know about their relationship. They’re totally dating, right? 

Although they’ve never admitted to being an item, they are not afraid to show each other off on social media. Maps recently took to his Instagram page to dedicate a beautiful message to his “buddy”.

He wrote: “Two years ago today we met and we hit it off, we hit it off really well. We’ve listened to challenged each other, we’ve learned a lot from each other, we’ve left each other in stitches, we’ve shared a bit too much information with each other.”

He added that they’ve consoled and annoyed each other. Must be very nice!

Maps continued: “We’ve cheered and we’ve jeered each other; either way we’ve been there for each other, and ‘each’ moment wouldn’t be as memorable without the ‘other’. Thank You Buddy @nomzamo_m.”

Uhm… can they just come out with it already? PLEASE!
