Motsi Mabuse (44) celebrates her daughter's eighth birthday with public well wishes. On Instagram, the 'Let's Dance' judge posted a photo on Thursday showing her giving the girl a kiss on her arm, with the sunset over the ocean in the background. 'Happy birthday, my sunshine,' Mabuse writes.
'I am deeply grateful to be your mother. I wonder how much longer I can still carry you like this,' the dancer continues. She also thanks everyone who helps her raise 'this wonderful human being' and tags a good dozen names, first and foremost her husband Evgenij Voznyuk (42) and her sister Oti Mabuse (35).
'Auntie Oti' Also Congratulates Publicly
Aunt Oti Mabuse also personally commented on her niece's birthday. Watching the girl become a 'bright, fearless, funny little being' is a gift, she writes alongside shared photos. For the coming year, she wishes the birthday girl 'endless blessings, the biggest laughs, dreams that come true' and of course, as she adds with a wink, lots of presents. 'Auntie loves you beyond all words,' the dancer concludes her post.
And of course, dad Evgenij Voznyuk doesn't miss the opportunity to direct loving words to his 'beautiful princess.' 'You are my greatest pride. Together with your mama, you are the most precious gift I could ever wish for,' the dancer gushes. The girl is incredibly loved and 'the continuation of our love, our greatest blessing and the light of our lives.'
But more well wishes also come from the 'Let's Dance' universe. Mabuse's fellow judge Jorge González and professional dancer Mariia Maksina send congratulations, as does Sally Özcan, who has also stood on the RTL show's dance floor.
Name Not Publicly Known
Motsi Mabuse and Evgenij Voznyuk have known each other for over 20 years. Initially they were sporting competitors, later they became dance partners. In 2017, the two married after two years of dating. Their daughter was born in August 2018.
The eight-year-old's name is still kept out of the public eye by her parents, and shared photos were also a rarity for a long time. In 2023, Mabuse revealed that her daughter is growing up trilingual with English, German and Russian.
