If you are a follower of the stunning Angolan Super Model Maria Borges then you will know that she recently took to her platforms to share her current pregnancy with us (Video at the bottom on the article). Maria Borges Pregnant Who Is Maria Borges? Maria Borges is an Angolan supermodel Born in October 1992. She was discovered in 2010 when she participated in Elite Model Look. She later signed with IMG Models and the rest was history. Accolades Maria Borges was the first fashion model to proudly rock her Afro at Victoria’s Secret fashion show. In 2013 she was named Forbes Africa Magazine’s top model of the year. At the age of 25 years old she became the first-ever African woman to feature on the cover of the American version of ELLE in 2017, 20 years after Alek Wek did.

We salute Maria Borges because, unlike most top fashion models, she didn’t wait until her reign was over before she began working to help other Angolan models and the fashion industry in Angola. Real Accolades She launched The Star Management which has been discovering young talent in Angola and blessing them with international contracts. She also graced the presence of Angola Fashion Week using her popularity to level it to some of the top fashion events on the African continent. She is a public speaker and an activist for girls’ rights, so much so that earlier this year, she became the newly appointed ambassador of tourism in Angola.

We believe this would be her first child with her long-time boyfriend Duke Mandinga, and with the beauty of the two as seen below, there is no doubt the child is already a model.
