‘Jealous’: Fan’s pic with Mapimpi gives Mzansi chest pains

An avid rugby fan who “bumped” into the Springboks’ most eligible bachelor – Makazole Mapimpi, during her trip to France – has fellow South Africans green with envy.

The South African woman shared her experience on her Twitter or X.com account.

SPRINGBOKS FANS SHARES MAPIMPI EXPRIENCE

The woman – Bongekile Macupe – tweeted about her experience meeting various Springboks players during her stay in France, including the handsome Mapimpi.

Posting a pic of her and the single star, she shared: “After settling in at the hotel, one of the first people I saw was Mapimpi. 

“I saw him getting into the lift. I saw him again going to the pool with a towel wrapped around his waist, and it felt inappropriate to approach him then.

“Anyway, I was walking to the beach when I met him again. I approached him & told him uyathandwa ngabahlali [he is loved back home]and asked for a pic … he said, ‘Yeah, sure.’ Such a cool, cool, soft-spoken gent.”

The flushed female fan added an emoji covered with love hearts to her tweet. Naturally, Mampimpi’s legion of female fans were greeny with envy.

@carrynann: “We’re all living vicariously through you.”

@puzznat: “At this point, it’s just showing off.”

@Lfoza: “I love him so much. I’m so jealous of you.”

‘UGLY CRYING’ OVER SIYA KOLISI

The woman wasn’t done with just snapping a pic with Mapimpi. She also shared her experiences meeting Kurt-Lee Arendse, who she claimed was an utmost gentleman.

I was struggling with closing my suitcase in the hotel lobby, ndive ngomntu esithi "Do you need any help?", I turned and there was Kurt-Lee Arendse already on his knees helping me.🥹

The fan then met Springboks captain Siya Kolisi, who had her totally in her feels!

She tweeted: “I was ugly crying when I saw him. As a result, I don’t have a decent picture. …what a beautiful moment.”
