In the lovely clip, the ladies arrived at the venue of the date night looking dapper and posed for pictures and selfies with the celebrant, their host.
The footage showed the luxury and beautiful venue for the hangout and the meals they helped themselves to.
Speaking on the date night, Anike was emotional about having it with strange faces that she now describes as family.
