Reeva Steenkamp sent Pistorius a blowing-a-kiss selfie just days before he shot her

MODEL Reeva Steenkamp sent Oscar Pistorius a sexy selfie blowing him a kiss days before he shot her.

Loving texts exchanged between the couple were read out in court yesterday as the defence tried to paint them as a tragic “Romeo and Juliet” pair.

In one message, Reeva, who was 27 when she died, sent a snap of herself wearing a hoodie and making a kissing face.

She messaged Oscar and said: “You like it?”

He said: “I love it.”

She also texted him saying: “You are a very special person. You deserve to be looked after.”

“It’s a tough time. We’ve got a lot of stuff ahead of us”

The court heard Reeva called the Paralympian, 27, “Ozzie” and he called her “Baba”. Reeva also sent him a text saying: “Truth is I miss you, every second, every minute, every hour, every day.”
Barry Roux, defending, told the court in Pretoria the texts were full of kisses and pet names and rows were quickly resolved.
But chief prosecutor Gerrie Nel said the affectionate messages were brief in contrast to the longer texted arguments.
Pistorius fatally shot Reeva on Valentine’s Day last year but denies murder. He says he mistook her for an intruder. Prosecutors say he killed her after a row.
Speaking outside court yesterday, Pistorius said: “It’s a tough time. We’ve got a lot of stuff ahead of us.”
