Nelson Mandela’s grandson, Mandla Mandela, and his wife Nosekeni Rabia, have welcomed twins into their family.
In a statement, the couple said they are delighted by their new bundles of joy.
“Mandela [their first born] is now a big brother‚ and Mvezo Komkhulu is about to hear the pitter-patter of little feet again. Our family is growing by 20 more fingers and 20 more toes.”
Nosekeni is said to be doing well.
“What are little boys made of? Snips and snails. And puppy-dogs’ tails. That’s what little boys are made of. What are little girls made of? Sugar and spice. And all things nice. That’s what little girls are made of‚” the statement read‚ suggesting that the twins are a boy and a girl.
The couple got married in 2016, in a traditional Muslim ceremony. They welcomed their first child Mandela, in May 2017.
Mandla’s marriage to Nosekeni is his fourth. He also still legally married to his first wife, Tando Mabunu-Mandela.
