"Lean on me and count on me" Ntombi seems to be telling Ace

Long-time sweethearts Ntombi and Ace, whose real names are Ntombifuthi Tshabalala and Nkanyiso Khumalo, and who are from Soweto, have proven strong love for each other.

The couple had already won the hearts of many Big Brother Mzansi fans with their seemingly authentic romance.

The two met five years ago on a pavement and have a son together.

They took home loot of R2-million as a prize.

On his next move after the win, Ace said: "I am going to take time to think it over and seek advice here and there. I want to empower and educate myself, better my life and those around me. I'm going for legendary status and to change the world slowly but surely," he said.

On their much-anticipated wedding he said: "There are no plans for the wedding yet, but should it take place it will be like no other. From day one Ntombi and I have always wanted to be together. She has always reminded me how she wanted us to get married. This relationship has kept me humble and on the straight path."

Ace admitted that life has not been all rosy. "I have had my fair share of things in life and I am happy to be where I am right now and very proud of where I stand."

The pair who entered the Big Brother game as a couple overcame strong competition from K2 (Katlego Mabusela) and Blue (Thandi Mbombo). K2 and Blue entered the reality competition as individuals and decided to pair up. Their ability to strategise and win challenges kept them in the competition longer.
