#KFCProposal’s ‘secret recipe’ warms hearts of South Africans

In a truly unique display of love and devotion, a couple got more than they bargained for when they got engaged at a KFC outlet.

A video of the so-called #KFCProposal went viral last week. The video shows a man getting down on one knee, presenting a ring to his partner halfway through their KFC meal.

KFC South Africa shared the video and asked for the public’s assistance in tracking down the couple. The couple were identified as Hector Mkansi and Nonhlanhla Soldaat and soon offers to help them plan their big day started pouring in from across SA.

Various corporates have since joined the initiative with the list of gifts and offers growing at a rapid pace.

South Africa’s favourite fast-food couple has since spoken out and in a statement released to SowetanLIVE, the love birds said they were overwhelmed by the support and has requested a moment of privacy to “take it all in”.

We give a finger-lickin’ good thumbs-up to everybody jumping in to spice up the #KFCProposal couple’s “happy meal”!
