DRICUS DU PLESSIS RETAINS UFC MIDDLEWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP
South African-born Dricus du Plessis defended and retained the UFC Middleweight Champion title against Sean Strickland. The fight took place on Sunday 9 February (SAST) at the Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney, Australia.
Dricus defeated Strickland by unanimous decision (50-45, 50-45, 49-46) to retain his championship. His fiancee, Vasti Spiller, took to her Instagram Stories to celebrate her husband-to-be.
“And still,” she wrote.
So, who is the woman behind the UFC champion?
WHO IS VASTI SPILLER?
Vasti is multi-talented, she is a photographer and a children’s book author. She has her own photography business called Baruch Photography. The beauty also published a book titled The Art of Loving, designed to help young children overcome trauma and the unimaginable atrocities they have been through.
She reportedly studied at the North-West university and completed her internship in photography. Vasti is a boxing coach at CIT Boxing.
According to Essentially Sports, Vasti entered the Miss SA 2022 pageant but did not make the cut.
Dricus has been dating Vasti Spiller for just over a year. The pair celebrated their first anniversary in July. She took to Instagram to mark the milestone.
“1 year of us♥️ with you I experience Jesus’ ‘new beginning’ and what it means to love like him. The beautiful, the ugly, the world and the sky are with you and I want to live next to you and experience it all. I love you my hungry heart,” she wrote.
