Mpho Letshonyane, who has been on a mission to cast the spotlight on relationships that serve inspiration in bucket loads, she celebrated Bonnie Mbuli and her bae Nathanial Roloff. 

Mpho also took the opportunity to tell trolls to leave them alone.

In 2019, seeing an interracial couple really shouldn't be a shocker or something to mock but sadly it still happens. When Mpho commented on how happy Bonnie has been, she expressed her disappointment in people who enjoy "bashing" Bonnie for dating a white man.

"These days, all I see are the dimples. A deep joy that shows in her ever-smiling eyes. She sometimes gives us glimpses of one of her sources of joy and boy does she always beam when with Nathanial.

"Some have wanted to shame her for being with a white man as if it's a crime, meanwhile she is living the love she believes she deserves! And I love it...may they grow from strength to strength," Mpho wrote.

Mpho made a reference to a quote, which Bonnie wrote in her book Eyebags and Dimples about real love and happiness.

"Every woman glows in her own right but no glow is brighter than that of a woman in love!" reads the quote.

Mpho shared a beautiful picture of the pair on her Insta too.
