ICYMI: Caster Semenya Ties The Knot!

A few days ago, stunning pics of athlete Caster Semenya and her long-time girlfriend Violet Raseboya set Twitter humming after they were photographed in Limpopo over the weekend. The South African 800m athlete Caster Semenya held her traditional wedding ceremony over the weekend. The couple however held a private ceremony where celebrity guests were not invited.

According to the SA Fame Awards Facebook page, which forms part of Limpopo Media, Semenya and her long-time girlfriend, Violet Raseboya, had their traditional wedding ceremony in Ga-Dikgale in the Capricorn District of Limpopo.

According to reports, Semenya and Raseboya got engaged in May last year. However, Semenya was quick to dispel those reports, saying, “There is no wedding. Don’t believe the rumours you read in the news,” Semenya said according to the Sowetan website.

Semenya, 24, sent her parents to Raseboya’s family in Polokwane to negotiate lobola. An insider revealed at the time that both families were happy to negotiate lobola, with Semenya’s family paying R25 000.

Let’s take a look at some of the picture which were heard on the internet….
