Former Miss World Rolene Strauss says her baby boy has shown her what love is really about.
SHE cradles the tiny tot in her arms with as much ease as she does everything else in her life – and anyone who knows her will tell you that “everything else” in her case is a lot. Rolene Strauss, former Miss World and final-year medical student, is now a mom – and today she’s showing off her little boy for the first time.
“If I didn’t know what it felt like to be willing to lay down my life for another person before, I do now,” the brunette beauty says. “Now I understand more than ever what love is.”
Rolene (24) and husband D’Niel (34) welcomed their 4,18-kg son at the Mediclinic in George in the Western Cape on 6 January. The couple have chosen not to reveal their little boy’s name yet to protect his privacy but Rolene let slip he’s been named after his granddad on D’Niel’s side.
