Motsi shares the little tot with her husband of three years, Evgenij Voznyuk, and the family are based in Germany.
While the former dancer keeps many of the details of her daughter's life private, she has previously spoken about the little girl's personality.
"She is funny, cute, intelligent and keeps me busy the whole time," she wrote on her Instagram Stories back in January.
"We have so much fun together and I try so hard sometimes lol. But still, first-time mum, learning by doing #gratitudeattitude daily exercise!"

Motsi was clearly impressed with her sister's efforts, as she started by saying: "Oti, we're so proud of you, look at you girl."
The mum-of-one then asked her daughter if she wanted to say anything and the little girl said: "Yeah!" "What do you want to say?" Motsi asked. "I love you," the youngster sweetly added.
