BIG NEWS: Pearl Thusi is also in the process of adopting relative’s kid

Pearl Thusi is getting married!

The Queen Sono star revealed that she will be exchanging vows with Australian businessman and philanthropist Shaun Keith Alfred Bonétt, reports Sunday World.

No date has been set yet.

Shaun's identity was only made known last month when the 33-year-old actress applied for a court order to adopt her relative's daughter from KwaZulu-Natal.

The 50-year-old Aussie is the founder of Precision Group and serves as CEO and managing director.

The company has business interests in South Africa.

He is also the deputy chairperson of Life Education Australia, director of the Princes Trust, a director of the Chinese Language and Culture Education Foundation of Australia, and leads his own charity organisation.

LUCKY OU: Shaun Bonétt

Filing the papers at Johannesburg High Court, Pearl used her fiancé as her trump card to convince the court to gain custody of the child.

She said in court documents: “I have been resident at my … since December 2014.

"I reside with my 13-year-old daughter who has happily welcomed … and sees her as her younger sister.

"I am in a stable relationship with a loving, caring and honest man, Shaun Keith Alfred Bonett, who owns a global conglomerate of business and philanthropic foundations, and whom I am planning to marry.

"He too has happily accepted … as his own.”

Fans previously begged the actress to reveal the identity of the mystery man who is giving her butterflies but she remained toe bek.

This after marriage rumours were circulating in April this year when she shared a video of herself jolling to a Lucky Dube song while saying that Lucky Dube must be played on her trou dag.

But it hasn't always been romantically rosy for Pearl.

In 2017, her engagement with sports presenter Robert Marawa fell apart following a public spat on Twitter, which led to Robert blocking her on the platform.
