Kgomotso Christopher and her husband Calvin have celebrated 18 years of marriage.

The couple marked the occasion by returning to the place they took their wedding pictures, to re-enact the moment and had their 18-year-old daughter capture the moment. 

"Eighteen years later we returned to stand and celebrate under the shade of the same trees … 27/11/04 - 27/11/22. Happy anniversary to us, Babatjie." 

Kgomotso and her hubby have loved each other since they were young and survived a long distance marriage when Calvin got a job in Dubai.

Throughout the years Calvin kept the love burning with romantic gestures.

In 2018, he made Kgomotso's childhood dream of owning a piano a reality. 

Taking to Instagram, Kgomotso said she was blown away by the gesture.

“He told me to rush home because there's a guy who needs to fix his sound system. This is what I found, a Baby Grand. It's not my birthday, it's not even my birthday month, but this is a present I've hoped for since I was a child and he knew.”

The actress said she fell in love with the piano as a child and begged her parents, who weren't wealthy, to send her for piano lessons. 

“It was only for one year. In that year my piano teacher told me not to give up playing, even if we didn't have a piano at home. She told me to practice on the kitchen table and spend my days in the school music room. I did, and in one year I took the Royal Academy of Music Board exams and fell a few points short of a distinction.”
