Media personality Gabisile Tshabalala says she has found true love in Motlatsi Mafatshe.

Taking to her Instagram timeline, she gushed over her beau after they went on a date together.

“Being friends would never have been enough for me. You changed my world the moment you stepped into it. In you, I found not only a true friend, but my true love,” she wrote.

Motlatsi and Gabi launched their YouTube channel in March and said they were starting the channel to set the record straight. 

“We've decided to answer your many questions on our YouTube channel,” they captioned the post.

The celeb couple said they would open up about love, relationships, the acting and music industry, and share parts of their lives together.

They rubbished claims they started seeing each other while still married to their then spouses. 

Motlatsi and Gabi said they took time off after their divorces before exploring new love. 

“I did not leave my ex-husband for Motlatsi, I left because the marriage wasn't working ... we tried, I gave my all, and I don't regret anything. Out of my marriage I've got two beautiful children who I love so much,” Gabisile said.

Motlatsi said though he made efforts to make his previous marriage work, he and his ex-wife amicably decided on a split.

The actor said he had found love in Gabisile and was in a happy relationship.

“In my case, it felt like a mutual thing. I think the love kind of ended. I remember we both went like, 'I'm not happy'.

“Now I'm very happy, she [Gabi] makes me happy.”
