Zuki Lamani – the Cape Town influencer who was once put on blast by Rachel Kolisi for being “thirsty” towards her husband Siya – is trending amid the bombshell news of their divorce.

The couple has announced their separation after eight years of marriage.

In 2018, the student went viral over her posts about meeting the rugby star, which she admitted was her “celebrity crush.” Their meeting came shortly after Siya was announced as the first black Springbok captain.
ZUKI LAMANI TRENDS AMID SIYA AND RACHEL KOLISI DIVORCE

 

 

 

 
On Tuesday, 22 October, Siya and Rachel Kolisi dropped a bombshell about their separation and impending divorce.

The couple wed in 2016 and have two children, Nicholas and Keziah. Rachel also took on the mother role to Siya’s orphaned siblings, Liyema and Liphelo.

Although the news came as a shock to South Africans, social media soon filled with commentary about what went wrong. Many X users brought up Zuki Lamani, who was put on blast by Rachel herself.

Zuki on her way to comfort Siya during this difficult time”, read a meme posted by @ZeeRight.

Another @karlie_momo posted: “Phakama Zuki! It’s time for you to fetch that Kolisi glow. Siya is a free agent”.

A third joked that Zuki was ready to take advantage of the “transfer window.”
WHAT DID SHE SAY IN OLD POSTS?

In 2018, Zuki Lamani posted pictures of her meeting the star rugby player on her Instagram account. In the pic, the half-embracing duo stares and smiles at each other.

“That Kolisi glow,” Zuki gushed over the married Springbok. In another, Zuku claimed that Siya had flirted back.

She captioned one IG Story: “So ubaby (Siya Kolisi) said ‘dammit’ when I was taking these shots. Then offered to take pictures of me with my phone whilst Ii do the shoot”.

The pics quickly went viral, but for all the wrong reasons. Zuki – who admitted that Siya was her celebrity crush – was indirectly labelled “thirsty” by his wife Rachel, who left a comment under the post.

Pearl joined the Durban-based station in March 2023 after Mzansi’s number one radio station dismissed Zandile Tembe, the former programmes manager.

Sources told Daily Sun Pearl resigned because she found better opportunities in the government at national level.

 

 

 

“She’ll be working for one of the departments as she’s a qualified communicator and manager. At the moment, she doesn’t want people to know where she’s going until she’s officially announced by her new employer, but chances are she’ll be based in Pretoria,” a source said.

When contacted for confirmation, Pearl referred Daily Sun to the SABC.

“I’m not allowed to speak with the media. Please, contact the SABC,” she said.

SABC Manager: Media Relations Mmoni Seapolelo confirmed to Daily Sun that Pearl has, indeed, resigned.

“The SABC can confirm Pearl Maseko-Binqose has tendered her resignation from Ukhozi FM. The SABC wishes to thank Ms Maseko-Binqose for her contribution to the organisation and wishes her well in her future endeavours,” Seapolelo said.

Pearl was hired by Ukhozi FM in March 2023 when the station had been without a programmes manager for almost two years. The position was vacant after the station dismissed Tembe in 2021. After Ukhozi FM dismissed Tembe, legendary radio presenter Mandla Mdletshe acted as programmes manager.

Ukhozi kept advertising the post as it was alleged, they were not getting a suitable candidate until they found Pearl in 2023.

Pearl was not new to the radio industry, having worked as a Gagasi FM content producer and Ukhozi FM producer before she joined the University of Fort Hare as a communications lecturer a few years ago.

The station is expected to announce an acting programmes manager soon.

Musician, Paul Kganyago, better known as Paul K, has officially tied the knot with his high school sweetheart, Lindiwe Kganyago.

The couple exchanged vows on Saturday, 19 October, in Paul’s hometown of Soshanguve, Tshwane.

Paul K and Lindiwe’s love story started when they were young. Growing up, they somehow parted ways, but the two eventually came together, and now they’re living happily as husband and wife.

 

 
In an interview with Daily Sun, the 42-year-old said he’s happy and thankful to have stepped into a new chapter of life.

“It feels right and good to be a husband. As a Christian and a gospel artist, I have to lead by example. Having someone by your side as a wife is truly a blessing,” he shared.

Reflecting on their journey together, Paul K emphasised that their bond was formed long before they became adults.

“We’ve been together since we were young and in school. We separated for a while, but when we got back together as everything was different.

“We were older, and I took it seriously from then on,” he said.

His words of advice to young couples, Paul K said respect and compromise were vital in keeping a relationship healthy.

“There’s no formula for marriage. It’s about two people and their feelings. The most important thing is to respect each other and be willing to compromise.”

Now that he’s settled into married life, Paul K’s geared up to focus on his music career.

“I wanted to get married first before diving back into music. I have new singles coming in February and some exciting projects on the way. Now, I can fully focus on the business of making music,” he said.

Tyla’s album moved to pop category for Grammys, sparking debate

Tyla’s debut album, originally submitted in the R&B category, has been moved to the pop category by the Recording Academy.

Tyla’s rise to fame has been nothing short of meteoric, and her musical journey has captured the hearts of fans across the globe.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
However, her path to Grammy glory just hit an unexpected bump.
TYLA’S ALBUM GETS MOVED TO A NEW CATEGORY

Tyla’s debut album, originally submitted in the R&B category, has been kicked out and will now compete in the pop category. It will compete for the 2025 Grammy Awards.

The decision has left fans and music experts alike puzzled, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

This is especially so given her strong roots in Afrobeats, Amapiano, and R&B.
GRAMMY’S CONFUSING DECISION REGARDING TYLA’S ALBUM

The South African star, known for her viral hit Water, had hoped her self-titled debut would shine in the R&B category.

Instead, the Recording Academy’s R&B screening committee, composed of industry experts, moved it to the highly competitive pop category.
TYLA’S FANS REACT TO THE NEWS

This move feels surprising considering her 14-track album’s clear connection to R&B and African genres.

“It’s a strange choice,” said one music critic.

“Her album could have competed in progressive R&B, especially with its blend of different sounds.” Tyla’s fans feel particularly frustrated.
‘WATER’ THE HIT SONG

Her track Water dominated charts worldwide. It spent an incredible 51 weeks at the top of the U.S. Afrobeats Songs chart.

The song also peaked at No. 7 on the all-genre Hot 100 and hit No. 1 on the Hot R&B Songs chart, according to Rolling Out.

These achievements make it seem odd for her album to be competing in the pop category. In the pop category she’ll face heavyweights like Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, and Ariana Grande.

TYLA’S FIRST GRAMMY WIN
In 2024, Tyla made history by winning the first-ever Grammy for Best African Music Performance with Water.

It was a groundbreaking moment for African music and set the stage for her to possibly add more Grammy gold to her collection, according to Vibe.
THE POP CATEGORY

However, the move to pop could make that journey harder.

“The pop category is one of the toughest to win,” said another industry insider.

“Tyla has done incredibly well, but now she’ll have to go up against some of the biggest names in the business.”
FANS SPECULATE ABOUT THE MOVE

Speculation is growing about why her album was pushed into the pop category.

Many fans think it’s a way of preventing her from winning another Grammy.

“Taylor Swift almost always wins the pop categories,” said a fan on X (formerly Twitter). “Maybe they’re trying to make it harder for Tyla to win again.”
TYLA’S ALBUM

Tyla’s album, with collaborations from stars like Tems, Travis Scott, and Becky G, also raises the question of whether the Grammys are struggling to understand genre-blending albums.

Lizzo’s Cuz I Love You won Best Progressive R&B Album in 2020, despite its pop sound.

So why didn’t the Grammys consider Tyla’s album in the same light?
GRAMMY NOMINATIONS

Grammy nominations will be announced on 8 November. The ceremony will take place on 2 February at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.

With first-round voting now closed, all eyes are on Tyla’s next move.

“I’m just excited to see what happens,” Tyla said. “I’ve always made music that crosses boundaries, and I’ll keep doing that no matter what.”
STILL HOPEFUL

Tyla’s fans remain hopeful, but it’s clear this Grammy season is going to be a tough one for the South African star.

Will she walk away with a Grammy in the pop category, or is this change a sign of a more strategic move behind the scenes? Only time will tell.

She said that she does not feel the need to share posts about her husband on social media and prefers to maintain their privacy.

“My husband and I just don’t feel the urge to share our moments online. I’m not sure why; maybe it’s just how I am. When we’re relaxing with popcorn, I don’t feel the need to post it on my stories. We’re simply enjoying our time together.

“I’m definitely my husband’s girl! Ever since we made it official, I’ve been referring to him as ‘my husband,’ and people often joke, asking if he has a name,” she said.

Jessica also disclosed that they prefer not to participate in interviews together.
INSIDE THE COUPLE’S LOVE LIFE

The couple, who share two children, have largely kept their marriage private and away from social media for a while now.

Their relationship has not been without challenges, as in 2019, Jessica accused Dlamini of cheating on her.

The actress used social media to speak out about the person TK had been cheating with and expressed gratitude to her source for providing the information.

“To you who is seeing the father of my child behind my back, you are free to be with him fully now. No more hiding. Enjoy babe. Thank you for your true love and care, ngiyabonga. I would never have believed,” she wrote.

However, shortly after everything seemed over, they reconciled and are now enjoying their happily ever afte

Musa Mseleku, the renowned South African reality
TV star best known for his hit show *UThando NesThembu*, is facing serious allegations of fraud and exploitation. Reports have emerged claiming that Mseleku owes R200,000 and failed to fulfill promises made to two key collaborators, Zakhele Gumede and Musa Ntsebesha, who assert they played vital roles in the show’s development. These claims have raised questions about Mseleku’s integrity and his production company, Thanks Ma.

 

 

 

 

 
The accusations center around Mseleku’s alleged failure to deliver on a 2% ownership stake in the production company, which he promised to Gumede and Ntsebesha in exchange for their contributions to *UThando NesThembu*. The two claim that they were instrumental in bringing the show to life but feel sidelined and exploited by Mseleku following its success. Ntsebesha recently spoke out about these grievances on the *Daily Reports Platform* podcast, where he shared the story of how their partnership began.

Ntsebesha recounts meeting Mseleku in 2016 while consulting for a local municipality in KwaZulu-Natal. Their interaction blossomed into a business relationship when Mseleku approached him with an idea for a reality show, which eventually became *UThando NesThembu*. At that time, Thobile Mseleku, Musa’s wife, was working at a local radio station, and the couple sought to expand their brand through

television. Ntsebesha claims that Mseleku made generous promises of financial rewards and equity in the production company.

“We trusted him when he promised us a 2% stake in the company,” Ntsebesha recalled. He described his significant involvement in developing the show, including writing the first season and creating the trailer presented to M-Net, the show’s broadcaster.

### The M-Net Deal

After their hard work culminated in M-Net’s interest, Ntsebesha recalls the excitement that followed. By January 2017, *UThando NesThembu* was officially greenlit, marking what should have been a successful start for the entire team. However, things took a turn for the worse shortly after the deal was secured.

Following a successful pitch to M-Net, Mseleku allegedly began to exclude Gumede and Ntsebesha from the production process. They claim he failed to provide the promised contracts formalizing their ownership stake and distanced himself from them entirely.

### Fallout and Confrontations

The situation deteriorated further when Mseleku allegedly traveled to Johannesburg to finalize the deal with M-Net, leaving Gumede and Ntsebesha behind. Despite their contributions, they were reportedly cut out of the profits, with Mseleku receiving 25% of the earnings from M-Net while they received nothing.

In numerous confrontations, Ntsebesha claims he pressed Mseleku for payment of the owed R200,000 and their promised ownership shares. Despite several heated exchanges, he asserts that Mseleku downplayed their contributions and attempted to assign them lesser roles in the production.

### The Silence and Public Outcry

Despite the serious nature of these allegations, Musa Mseleku has remained silent, leaving many questions unanswered regarding the fairness of his business dealings. This controversy has sparked significant discussion among fans of *UThando NesThembu* and industry insiders, who are now questioning Mseleku’s reputation as a man of integrity and family values.

As the allegations unfold, they threaten to overshadow the success of *UThando NesThembu* and Mseleku’s image as one of South Africa’s beloved reality

TV stars. With Gumede and Ntsebesha seeking justice for what they believe is their rightful share of the show’s success, the future of Mseleku’s reputation hangs in the balance.

As the public awaits Mseleku’s response, the entertainment industry watches closely, potentially bracing for one of the most significant scandals in South African reality television history.
