The DYNAMIC DUO

Hello, Diana and Nkubito, congrats on your MAXIM cover. How do you both feel?

Diana: Feeling very special to be on the cover of one of the best magazines in the world! It’s always fun to shoot with Rocky [Batchelor, photographer], too.

Nkubito: I feel fantastic. It’s a great opportunity to be on the cover of MAXIM Australia and very exciting to see our faces on the front page. It’s all very glamorous!

Well, you both look gorgeous. When do you feel sexy?

Diana: When we move and express our energy.

Nkubito: I feel sexy and beautiful pretty much all the time. I am my biggest fan and one of my biggest strengths is working on my self-love and making sure every day I look and feel better, inside and out. Being sexy and confident in your own body is the most valuable asset for your life.

What is your best asset?

Diana: My ability to overcome issues.

Nkubito: My look – I’m half Belgian and Rwandan. I’m yet to meet anyone similar to me and I embrace that, I love being different. Otherwise it’s my social skills, genuine kindness for the world, passion for life and my constant learning on how to be the best version of myself.

What would people be most surprised to know about you?

Diana: I love to communicate with people and I believe connection is everything. It can break you or it can make you.
