Pearl Modiadie’s baby daddy Nathaniel Oppenheimer: Where he allegedly comes from shocks Mzansi

After South African television presenter Pearl Modiadie posted pictures of her son Lewatle Olivier Oppenheimer’s first birthday party, Tweeps assumed the father of her child was related to the South African billionaire family — the Oppenheimers.

Over the past weekend, Pearl Modiadie posted pictures of her son’s first birthday party, finally revealing his face. However, people were less interested in how adorable the toddler is and more interested in his surname.

Even me I want to be with an Oppenheimer. I'll even put my activism aside for them. Ebile, DE LA REI DE LA REY???
