Luke Ten Oever, who’s reportedly been in a relationship with Mia le Roux for three years took to his Instagram to congratulate her after she won Miss SA pageant.
Ten Oever shared a photo of himself, her parents, Liesel and Schalk le Roux and Mia after she was crowned and congratulated her.
“My dearest Miatjie, words cannot express how incredibly proud I am of you,” he wrote.
“You are, without a doubt, the strongest person I have ever known. Winning Miss South Africa is just the beginning. I have no doubt that you will use this platform to achieve things that have never been done before,” he added.
“Your strength and determination inspire me every day. I can’t wait to see all the amazing things you will accomplish,” he concluded.
Ten Oever and Le Roux are reportedly both models and frequently share posts of each other on their Instagram accounts.
The newly crowned Miss SA, Mia le Roux tells Sowetan that she needs to be catered for in how she communicates.
“The challenge I face is that I communicate differently. I need to be catered for in how I communicate,” she admits.
“I cannot communicate in crowded rooms as everything becomes one noise. One-on-one is better and clear. There is also no need to over-enunciate. Just speak clear, look at me in the face so I can read your lips,” she adds.
Le Roux has a cochlear implant and uses specialised technology integrated into her smartphone, which enables her to respond to interview questions for upcoming interviews.
