A man stands behind a woman, touching her hair.

Joslyn Lategan and her boyfriend, Looqmaan Hassen, have been together now for well over a year. In that time, the two of them have become quite close. In fact, the two of them even became co-founders of a business that hosts pop-up fitness events in Cape Town. As exciting as all of that is for the couple, it’s Joslyn’s relationship with her boyfriend’s dad that stands out the most.
