“Saturday 5th December was the day of meeting Peace’s Parents to be introduced to her parents, where I proposed too, the whole corona pandemic has made me realize that life’s too short and for living if you feel things are right.”

“My fiancée is a private person and doesn’t like being in the public eye, though she understands it’s what comes with being with someone in the music industry,” Rhymer said.

Asked about whether dates had been locked up for Kwanjula, he was hesitant to tell.
