Comedian and Podcaster Mpho Popps, whose real name is Mpho Modikoane, is currently in Dubai with his wife Latoyah Modikoane after clocking in their third wedding anniversary on Wednesday, 18 February.

MARITAL BLISS FOR THE MODIKOANES

The hilarious Mpho and gorgeous Latoyah have found their feet in Dubai as they’ve kick-started their activities. The lovebirds held the first leg of their wedding in February 2023, followed by a traditional wedding in September 2025.

A few celebrities, such as Shaka Ilembe, actress Nomzamo Mbatha, and Slee Ndlovu from The Real Housewives of Durban, attended their wedding. The two ladies also served as Latoyah’s bridesmaids.

Despite being married for only three years, the couple had been together for over fifteen years before deciding to spend their lives together. The Modikoanes are a family of three, as they have a 13-year-old daughter named Imani.

TRIP TO DUBAI AND NEW WEDDING PHOTOS

Based on the images they posted on their respective Instagram accounts, it is clear that their trip is filled with all the makings of pure joy, happiness, and love.

To mark their third wedding anniversary, they also shared new wedding photographs. The colour theme was blue, and their wedding outfits were just top-tier. The love-smitten couple wrote the following caption in celebration of their marriage.

Latoyah:

“Happy Anniversary, my love, @mphopopps. God has been so incredibly good to us and our little family. Thank you for loving me the way you do and for making me the happiest woman in the world. Our full-circle moment, and this is only the beginning. I love you, my Poppy.”

Mpho:

‘Happy anniversary, Latoyah Makaelo Modikoane, thank you for making my life so much better. I love you so much.”
