PRESS RELEASE
Embargo : 12Hoo Friday 26 June 1996
FERGIE TO WED!
Fergie Rae Ngoya, the flame haired orangutan from Johannesburg Zoo is to marrry. In a surprise developement to their cautious yet steady 7 year relationship, Boytjie le Vin of Frankfurt, Germany has asked for her large hand in marriage. The official engagement announcement will be made at a small ceremony this Friday June 28.
Boytjie confessed that he has been in love with Fergie since they met in 1987. However the decision to move from mere mates to marital bliss was a slow and difficult one to make. Orangutans are known to be timid and do not rush head-long into things. This combined with Boytjies teutonic background meant it took him a while to pluck up the courage to ask Fergie to marry him. Fergie being an inscrutable orangutan from Ngoya, Japan, had given Boytjie no indication that she would even consider matrimony. He was ecstatic when she said yes!
Boytjie admitted that recent visits by possible contenders and Fergies increased profile in the medis (she is an essential member in the zoo's marketing & promotions department) meant that she was becoming 'known'. Fearing that he might lose her he decided to forge ahead before celebrity status went to her head.
After making this momentous decision to marry, it was agreed by their adoptive parent, Radio 702, that all the stops will be pulled out to make this THE social wedding of the year.
The date is set for October 12 and visiting dignitaries, VIP's, socialites, ambassadors, designers, top business delegates and a large contingent from the glitering range of Who's Who is expected to be there.
The couple have no plans to immigrate and intend remaining at the Johannesburg Zoo, in their adoptive country, South Africa.
In lieu of wedding presents Fergie & Boytjie respectfully request that their special day be used to raise funds for a new home.
