Sprinter Ferdinand Omanyala and his wife Laventa Amutavi met at a sports event.

Speaking to Massawe Japanni on Radio Jambo, the couple talked about having a blissful six years relationship.

Omanyala and his lover met in 2016.

The father of one talked about plans to formalize his marriage.

"Pressure to get more kids is coming but for now, I would want her to get to where she wants since she is also an athlete," he said.

"We just want to have one kid for now although our mums say they want more kids. They indirectly want us to get more kids."

Asked if she is under pressure he would elope with another woman, Laventa said it depends on how willing a man wants to protect their relationship.

Omanyala said he gets love advances.

"People including men come to my DM wanting to have a relationship with me. But I have to be principled. They never knew me before fame, so tricky kidogo."

How did they meet?

"We met in sports. We were both running and I had identified him. He made his presence known and he made it," Laventa said.

Asked if she approached him, she said no.

On the other end, Omanyala said he noticed her first at the University games.

"I noticed her beauty and I talked to my Friend about it," he said.

"She played hard to get from June 2016 until December of that year."

Laventa said she was afraid he would dump her after fame.

"I was not sure why he did not have a girlfriend and I also wanted to know how persistent the guy is."

Omanyala said it took like six months for her to accept him.

What they fight most about in the relationship, Omanyala said he does not get angry, and he has also learnt to identify how to solve issues with his lover.

"If it is serious, I chose to walk away for some time so by the time I am back, we are good and things are okay."
