Dr Musa Mthombeni has never been one to shy away from expressing his love for his wife, Liesl Laurie-Mthombeni.
In his latest post, he pulled out all the stops to let people know how much he misses his wife, who has been on a girls' trip in Paris, France.
The radio and TV presenter has been enjoying her stay in the City of Love.
She has been sharing the moments spent at different renowned parts of Paris with her girls on her Instagram feed, captivating her followers with her stunning, chic looks.
While Liesel had been out and about for a couple of days, her loving husband was back home, missing her and struggling to keep it together.
In his witty and dramatic nature, he took to social media to post a 'Missing' person picture of the presenter. Another picture has 'Wanted for stealing my heart' written on it.
The jokester went as far as jokingly pledging a R1 billion reward for his wife's return.
The caption of the post read: 'ALERT! General Mkhwanazi has issued an urgent public service announcement! The following people are both MISSING and WANTED by the National Intervention Unit.
'The suspects are extremely gorgeous and dangerous at the same time. If spotted, please contact Musawenkosiwesizwesethusamazulu Mthombeni! Reward- R100 000 000.'
The two lovebirds got engaged in June 2021 and tied the knot in August 2021 have since been giving their followers a glimpse into their happy marriage with their social media presence.
Musa, who is also known for his banter, has previously shared monthly celebrations of their love and union, calling them 'monthversary'.
When they got married, the couple opted to wait to start a family, allowing them to enjoy their time together before having a full house.
They have since been travelling the world together, celebrating their love for one other in different destinations such as Greece, Germany and Hong Kong to list a few.

Annie Mthembu opens up about her failed marriage to Da Guru
Da Guru has since publicly apologised to Annie. Real Housewives of Durban star Annie Mthembu has broken her silence on her separation from husband Kgolo 'Da Guru' Mthembu. During a podcast with Lungelo KM on Engineer Your Life, Annie spoke candidly about the pain and emotional toll of their split. She said she had remained quiet for so long because she was still processing everything that had happened. 'I didn't want to speak from an overly emotional space. You also don't want too many people in your life while you're trying to figure it out,' she added. Annie and Kgolo met in 2016 when she worked as his assistant. They tied the knot in 2021 in a lavish ceremony at La Paris Estate in Franschhoek, Cape Town. She shared that their separation was due to her husband's infidelity. 'No one likes being cheated on. It makes you question yourself a lot,' she said. 'Admitting I was being cheated on felt like saying I wasn't good enough. People told me things — some true, some not. When you don't know what to believe, you start losing your mind. I was highly embarrassed. I wasn't in a good place.' Annie said she tried to fix her marriage but eventually had to let go for the sake of her children. 'I just wanted to protect all of us, even though I wasn't being protected. Everybody knew things I didn't. Still, I wanted to protect myself, my children, and our family. Even though I knew he was doing his thing, I still wanted us to be a family.' Annie revealed they have been separated for two years, and this December will mark three years since their split. 'I am still fighting the unforgiveness. They say time heals — I'm waiting for time to do its job,' she said. Da Guru apologises to Annie After Lungelo posted a clip of Annie's interview on Instagram, Da Guru took to the comments section to apologise. 'No matter the personal struggles I was facing, there's never an excuse for dishonouring God's blessings. I deeply regret the pain I've caused you. As the head of the family, I let everyone down. Annie, from the bottom of my heart, I wish you true love, healing and peace. Farewell Pretty Wings,' he wrote.

Oprah, Bontle, Don Cheadle and more: 10 celebs who took decades to get to the altar
When the question of Cristiano Renaldo and Georgina Rodriguez's engagement came up on her Netflix reality show, the footballer's response that he was waiting for " that click" sent fans and viewers into a frenzy about when he would finally pop the question. This week they left the internet abuzz following the announcement of their engagement on Instagram after being together for nine years. Here's a look at celebs who took their time to say "I do". BONTLE MODISELLE AND PRIDDY UGLY A love story fit for the modern age, Modiselle and her rapper beau became a couple thanks to their shared love for dancing. In an interview with Insider SA, the couple shared Priddy had noticed Modiselle on SABC 1's competition show Jika Majika. He would pursue her at hip-hop events, kicking off a 10-year relationship until they wed. ALESSANDRA AMBROSIO AND JAMIE MAZUR Like many couples on the list, Ambrosio and Mazur spent a long time engaged, 10 years to be exact. Their relationship began in 2005, according to reports, but hit splitsville in 2018. JOHN CORBETT AND BO DEREK While many fans might know John Corbett for his role as the on and off boyfriend of Sex and the City character Carrie Bradshaw, he has been in love with his actress wife Bo Derek since 2002. They made it official after 18 years with a wedding at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic. "We're pretty private people. We didn't make an announcement,. All our friends and family knew but this is the first time either one of us has said anything publicly about it because we haven't had an opportunity," he said in an interview on the daytime show The Talk. Corbett said the two met as dates set up for the Oscars in 2002 by his agent at the time. MICHELLE YEOH AND JEAN TODT Blending the glitz of Hollywood and fast-paced action of Formula 1, Yeoh and Todt made an exciting couple to follow. Their mostly private lives have kept them out of the limelight and with little pressure to push things forward on a wedding. In 2004, Yeoh was engaged to Todt and they got married in July 2023. Their love story was shared on their wedding programme. INDIA HICKS AND DAVID FLINT WOOD As a bridesmaid at Princess Diana and Prince Charles' wedding, all eyes have been on Hicks and Wood since they started dating in 1995. In an Instagram post, Hicks said they had made plans to wed in 2020, but due to the pandemic, they kept postponing, making the eventual walk down the aisle a 26-year wait. TINA TURNER AND ERWIN BACH While Tina is best known for her tumultuous relationship with Ike Turner, she did move on to find a healthier relationship with producer Erwin Bach. Speaking in the Tina documentary, Bach said he met her at Düsseldorf Airport in Germany when her manager, Roger Davies, asked Bach to fetch her. It would take 27 years before they married in 2013. DON CHEADLE AND BRIDGID COULTER In another pandemic wedding, Cheadle and Coulter finally tied the knot after being together for close to 30 years. The private couple said they never saw the point of a wedding since they were in love, and while their proposal was more a formal decision, it was the first year they met that had the magic, according to Cheadle. "Just me and her and our kids and our dogs," he told People Magazine. JOY BEHAR AND STEVE JANOWITZ Comedian and talk show host Behar has long shared her unapologetic opinions on stages and social media. The straight shooter's marriage, however, was extremely unconventional. She confessed they met at a semi-nudist colony on her show The View. It took the pair 30 years to get hitched at a private ceremony in 2011. Behar said: "If he was going to get down on one knee, I wanted it to be during the time when he could still get up from one knee." OPRAH WINFREY AND STEDMAN GRAHAM Perhaps one of the most infamous relationships and engagements, Winfrey and Graham have had many tabloid and wedding magazines waiting to see what the billionaire Queen of Media would wear and do for her big day. They met in 1986 and got engaged in 1992. It was only in 2017, after fake news that the two had eloped that Winfrey revealed they felt an official marriage "requires a different way of being in this world".
