While we are hesitant to praise our capitalist overlords, sometimes brands come together to make some seriously wholesome magic happen. Journalist @butterfly_anele shared a tweet mocking a proposal she witnessed at a South African KFC, the couple went viral - and brands took notice. Businesses ranging from Woolworths to Coca-Cola began offering the twosome goodies for the wedding day. A Twitter-wide search began, and after KFC South Africa found the lovebirds, further offers arrived - from designers offering traditional wedding garb and diamond rings. The wholesomeness is almost too much to take, and while we're sure the brands had publicity in mind, the couple in question must be over the moon. Here's to good news for a change.
