Sithelo Shozi reflected on the darkness she escaped in a heartfelt tribute she penned on the first birthday of her daughter, Coco.
Sithelo Shozi celebrates Coco’s first birthday
Shozi, who was recently embroiled in a public spat with Coco’s father, Andile Mpisane, and paternal grandmother, Shauwn MaMkhize, surfaced on social media to celebrate her youngest daughter’s first birthday.
As expected, it was an emotional day of reflection for the 28-year-old. After all, Coco’s birth marked a turning point in her relationship with the Mpisane family. It was around Coco’s infancy when Mpisane walked out of their relationship to marry his current wife Tamia Louw.
Looking back at the emotional turmoil she overcame, Shozi penned a heartfelt tribute dedicated to her daughter.
“What an emotional morning it is. God, I thank you for your wisdom. Had I not silenced the noise and listened to only your voice only, we wouldn’t be here. Not only is this a first year milestone but also a chance to thank you out loud for giving me the strength it’s taken to get here single-handedly. Great is your name,” Shozi wrote.
Shozi celebrated Coco’s first trip around the sun with a ‘pinkified’ photoshoot creative directed by Nkanyiso Qhome which you can check out below.
For her first birthday, Baby Coco would have been showered with gifts, but Shozi, thus far, has teased this Louis Vuitton mini pochette and a custom-made mini Moet.
At the time this article was published, neither Mpisane nor MaMkhize had posted public tributes to Coco.
Shozi has three children: Makhosini Maseko (six years old), Flo (two years old) and the last born, Coco.
