Having previously looked at Pretoria's finest football couples, it is now time to shift focus to Soweto's most admirable romantic pairs
The story
Soweto is not only home to the three most iconic clubs in the country, Kaizer Chiefs, Orlando Pirates, and Moroka Swallows, but it also houses some of the most delightful couples South African football has to offer.
Given his stature in the game, it is obvious that Amakhosi captain Itumelng Khune and his wife Sphelele Makhunga are the most familiar romantic pair.
The two constantly serve couple goals as they do pretty much everything together, including some much-needed workouts, that have inspired the goalkeeper to some recent heroics between the sticks.

Love is a goalkeeper thing?
It seems that long-term commitment is prevalent among keepers, as Bafana Bafana and Nigeria shot-stopper Bruce Bvuma and Daniel Akpeyi are also devoted, married men.
Akepeyi, who remains without a club, is a church-going man and we imagine that his faith is among the million reasons he and his partner adore each other.
Former Orlando Pirates captain Happy Jele also boasts a gorgeous companion who is also the loving mom of his beautiful children. Another departer Bucs star, Wayde Jooste, recently tied the knot with his partner in a stunning white wedding. The pair do not have any children but they sure to have a cute English bulldog to keep them company
