MEN across Mzansi dreamed of one day becoming Zahara's husband.
But this week news broke that will lead to disappointment for all of them.
The popular Afro Pop singer has confirmed she is engaged to DJ Amaza Ntshanga.
The truth came out at TMG Entertainment's event to celebrate DJ S'bu's radio comeback on Vuma FM. At the party Zahara couldn't hide the pretty, shining rock on her finger.
In October there were rumours that the Loliwe hitmaker and her boyfriend were engaged but she denied them. Since then the singer's love life has been hogging the entertainment headlines.
However, at an event held in Joburg yesterday, she finally admitted she would be tying the knot.
"Yes, OK. I'm engaged but I'm not going to tell you who to," she said when journalists asked her about the ring on her finger.
"I'm engaged and not married. You know I don't talk about my personal life," she said, hiding her fingers in black gloves.
Although the singer from the Eastern Cape, born Bulelwa Mkutukana, didn't really want to talk about her engagement, she was smiling from ear to ear when she was asked about the ring.
She told Daily Sun she would soon be going on an international tour to promote her recently released album, Country Girl.
"I will start my tour with shows in Austria and New York."
She said Country Girl went gold within 20 hours of its release and hit platinum in less than a week on the market.
She was also excited to speak about a single she was working on with DJ S'bu, about blessings and gratitude. The Afro-pop queen added she would soon be recording a live DVD where she would perform songs from both her albums.
Back in 2013, there was a story of Sifiso Simelane, who wanted to pay 100 cows as lobola for Zahara, but she declined them. He then started praying for his dream to come true, but yesterday he told the People's Paper he had accepted the battle was lost.
He said he would respect her and the choice she had made.
