The announcement was made by Kganyago on her Instagram account, where she shared her excitement about this significant investment.

Reflecting on the past year, Kganyago mentioned, “This year had a few challenges, personally… but we bought a few buildings and an entire mall in PTA!” She also expressed gratitude towards her husband, stating, “I learn so much from my husband, that’s why I’ve been doing less gigs.”

This move into real estate follows their previous business endeavors, including the luxury boutique hotel 12 On Hillel Villa and Spa, where Kganyago is a part-owner.

Khanyi Mbau reunites with Kudzai after 1 week split

Khanyi Mbau announces her return to Kudzai Mushonga days after breaking up with him.

A week ago, the South African actress posted on social media, revealing that she’s ended her 5 years relationship with the businessman man.

The Zimbabwean business mogul also dropped a cryptic post in response to the breakup announcement.

However, they are back together.

Khanyi Mbau revealed that Kudzai requested to know what he did wrong and they sorted out their issues.

“He called, demanded I address the bad things he did, he asked to attend the funeral that made me mourn I cried.. he listened.. now I am in the car he sent headed home,” she wrote.

She further urged people not to judge her as she had no place to go due to the tattooed name of Kudzai on her thigh.

“Don’t ask!! he didn’t entertain my rubbish. We are adults!!! ( listen don’t judge) Besides where would I go with a thigh laminated in bold with his name!”

This is not the first time the couple had pulled such stunt. The first time it happened Kudzai went live on Instagram crying and begging the mother-of-one to return to Dubai.

She did return to him and the rest they say is history.

DJ Zinhle has celebrated another huge milestone in the business venture after reopening her 7th “Era by D.J. Zinhle” physical store.

“We’ve got the best Bestie that has ever Bestie’d!🤭💕 @djzinhle’s Retail Empire continues to grow with the re-opening of the newly renovated@thepavilionsa store bringing to total number of physical Era Stores to SEVEN!!🇿🇦✨ Where do you want us to go next Bestie?👀🤭” wrote Zinhle

On Tuesday, Mpho Popps and his wife, Latoya Modikoane, stepped in to host The Best T in the City in place of Tbose.

Coincidentally, the day also marked their wedding anniversary. After their first-ever radio hosting stint, we sat down with the couple for a quick and lively chat.

When asked what people might be surprised to learn about them, Mpho revealed that they’re actually quite boring.

 
“Early in our relationship, we were the couple who loved hosting parties,” he shared. “Our previous house even had an entertainment lapa, and we were always the life of the party. Now, we’ve become more low-key. If it’s not just the two of us, it’s the three of us with our daughter. We’ve grown more boring—and more loving.”

Latoya added that Mpho is far shyer than most people realise.

“Many people think Mpho is extroverted and I’m introverted, but within our close circle, it’s the opposite. Because of his job, he has to be outgoing, but in reality, he’s more reserved. When we meet new people, I’m usually the one who sparks conversations and feels more comfortable. I enjoy being out there and meeting people, whereas he prefers to stay in the background.”

The couple also shared what they’d do if they could swap lives for a day. Mpho joked, “I feel like women enjoy a lot of privileges, and I’d take full advantage of that chivalry. My wife is an interior designer, so if I were in her body for the day, I’d channel my Top Billing presenter. I’d literally go to all her suppliers and start networking like crazy.”

Latoya, on the other hand, admires Mpho’s carefree nature. “That’s the one thing I love about you. I’d embody that energy and do all the things I’m usually too afraid to do. I’d jump on stage, for example. I think I have a good sense of humour, so I’d put it to the test.”

When asked if their relationship had a theme song, Latoya didn’t hesitate. “Differences by Genuine—that’s our song. I even included it in our wedding vows,” she said. Mpho added, “It’s funny because the very thing that has both kept us apart and brought us together is our differences. Over the years, we’ve learned that our differences are what make us unique. I love that she’s different from me.”

Reflecting on their experience standing in for Uncle T, Mpho admitted it was a big responsibility but entirely worth it. “I’ve often been a guest presenter, but what made today so special is that my wife and I created a vision board recently, and one of my goals was to do radio. I was initially nervous for Letoya because this isn’t her usual space, but it was so much fun, and time flew by.”

Latoya echoed his sentiments, saying, “At first, I was really anxious, but I grew more comfortable as we went along. It was a great experience, and it’s a memory that will stay embedded in our minds forever. I’m glad I got to do it for the first time with him.”

Babes Wodumo, one of South Africa’s most beloved singers and performers, is set to give fans an unprecedented look into her life with her highly anticipated reality show, Wena Wodumo. Following the release of the trailer, excitement is building as fans eagerly await a series that promises to answer many questions surrounding her personal and professional journey.

 

 

 

 

 

 
The trailer, which has already sparked conversations on social media, offers a captivating glimpse into Babes Wodumo’s everyday experiences, relationships, and the challenges she’s faced throughout her career. According to IOL, Wena Wodumo aims to provide an intimate portrayal of the musician’s life, showcasing not only her career triumphs but also the personal struggles that have shaped her story. With her signature vibrant personality and engaging storytelling, fans can expect a series filled with joy, vulnerability, and perhaps a few unexpected twists along the way.

The trailer stands out with its emotional moment when a male voice confronts Babes, claiming she is not Mampintsha’s wife. This leads Babes to open up about the painful discovery she made when she went through her late husband’s phone and found messages from other women. The raw moment, shared in the trailer, has left fans even more eager to tune in to the show to see how Babes navigates her life after Mampintsha’s tragic passing.

Social media is abuzz with anticipation as fans express their excitement for the show’s premiere. One fan commented, “You’re reality TV gold. I hope there will be many seasons,” while another added, “One thing about you, you were made for fame. You did not lie when you called yourself ‘Babes Wodumo’. You are the star that you think you are!”

Reality television is not new territory for Babes Wodumo. In 2021, she and her late husband, Mandla “Mampintsha” Maphumulo, featured in their own reality series, Uthando Lodumo, which aired on Showmax. The couple returned for a second season in 2022, giving fans a closer look at their life together. However, with Mampintsha’s tragic passing and Babes now a single mother to their only son, she is embarking on a new chapter, navigating a complex emotional journey while rebuilding her life.

Nondu Simelane, Babes’ sister and manager, teased the dramatic elements viewers can expect, saying, “There’s going to be a lot of drama from when Mampintsha was at the mortuary to life now. It’s our journey, and a lot is going to be revealed.”

Wena Wodumo will premiere on Moja Love (DStv Channel 157) on Saturday, March 29, at 8:30 pm. Fans can expect a deeply personal and engaging series that offers an intimate look into the life of one of South Africa’s biggest stars.

Real Housewives of Durban thobile mseleku
She is one of three new housewives featured in the new season. Jojo Robinson and Londie London made their debuts last week.

Thobile is no stranger to the spotlight as she’s married to reality television star and polygamist Musa Mseleku.

She has also appeared in Uthando Ne’sthembu and Mnakwethu.

Speaking about why she joined Real Housewives of Durban, Thobile wants the audience to get to know her as an individual.

“People know me from Uthando Nes’thembu, and they don’t get to understand Thobile as an individual. And whenever you go around, people cannot just see you as yourself, but they have to bring in the family you’re married into because that’s how they know you.

“Which is not a bad thing and it’s something that I don’t have a problem with – but I have a life outside the whole family.”

She is also looking to make friends outside of her home.

“I need people that I can mingle with and try to see if I can make a living outside of the home and still have people around me who make sense to me.

“So joining The Real Housewives of Durban is going to assist me in knowing people that I’ve seen already doing stuff for themselves and people that I believe have some things in common. They are all driven just like I am,” she shares.

Rachel Kolisi has been praised by her brother, Joel Smith, for being a great mother to her “four children” – two of them being her ex, Siya Kolisi’s siblings.

The former Springbok couple split less than six months ago and have been making headlines about transitioning their blended family dynamic.

Rachel has been transparent on her social media platforms about both her grieving and healing from her divorce.

 

 

 
RACHEL KOLISI PRAISED BY BROTHER
Over the weekend, Rachel Kolisi posted an honest account of her first Valentine’s Day since her split from Siya.

In it, the philanthropist and influencer revealed that her heart was “breaking all over again” on the day dedicated to love. Rachel also compared parenting during her marriage split to her “world crumbling around her.”

“One day, I hope I’ll never have to experience this again,” she shared.Rachel’s brother, Joel Smith, who is married to retired Olympic swimmer Tatjana Smith, also commented.

He said of his sibling: “All four of those kids are very, very lucky to have. you”.Rachel Kolisi shares family Christmas photo with two kids – Nicholas and Keziah and Siya Kolisi’s two siblings Liyema and Liphelo. Image via Instagram @rachelkolisi
Joel is referring to Siya’s two young siblings, Liphelo and Liyema, who the couple adopted more than a decade ago. The brother and sister were placed in an orphanage after the death of their mother in 2009.

FAMILY BONDS
Although Rachel Kolisi does not share a biological bond with Siya’s siblings, she considers them one of her children.

In December, Rachel took her kids to Australia to spend time with their extended family. She has also posted many photos of her doing regular mom things with Liphelo and Liyema.

In the past, Siya has praised Rachel for embracing both his siblings and his Xhosa culture.

In 2022, he said of his wife: “@rachelkolisi wenza kakhulu [is doing a lot], honestly we wouldn’t be where we are as a family without you! Thank you, Mariri.”

Last year, Rachel reflected on the 10th anniversary of the adoption.

She shared on Instagram: “I was 24 years old, Nic was three months old, Liphelo had just turned 7, and Liyema was 12. 10 years of the greatest gift God could have ever given me”.

“Power 98.7 is proud to announce a major addition to our broadcasting team: Dr Mbuyiseni Ndlozi, widely recognized as one of the most dynamic and influential voices of his generation. Dr Ndlozi will host POWER Talk from next month,” shared the station.

Ndlozi left the EFF to focus on his academics, and in an interview with the SABC, he broke his silence about his resignation.

“I have handed over my resignation. I have left the EFF, I have left party politics. EFF is a political party. It is because where I want to go and contribute, I can’t hold a single-party membership,” he said.

Ndlozi added, “But overall, I think that I’ve made my contribution, and I think that there are brilliant young men and women, old men and women in the space who will continue in that category, as it were, of party politics.”

FANS REACT TO HER POST
Her fans reacted with sympathy about her spending the day alone, while others asked where Master KG was. This is despite Master KG announcing in 2021 that they had called it quits.

Millicent Gwazane wrote: “Single, it’s a calling, Makhadzi. You are at peace, you have your money, and you manage to take yourself to the restaurant. Other laddies failed to do that for themselves.”

Stevie Ceth Kamwana Ste wrote: “Just thank God you have life without stress… alot of people are dying inside because of the thing called love.”

The mother of four poured her heart out about parenting amid her divorce.

“We do love everyday anyway. But this Valentine’s Day I made a brave decision and it broke my heart all over again. Parenting when the world feels like it’s crumbling around you is a different kind of challenge. And one I hope I’ll never have to experience at this level again,” she wrote.

“Never been more grateful for the very few who showed up to support and lean in this week, specially.
One day at a time felt too big this week so I just did one hour at a time and it kinda helped – I made it to Saturday! 😅❤️,” she said.

Unofficial Royal AM ambassador Mama Joy – real name Joy Chauke – has reacted to news of the club’s sale following owner Shauwn “MaMkhize” Mkhize’s legal woes with SARS.

The businesswoman has an R40 million unpaid tax debt linked to her line of companies, which are part of the Zikhulise Group.

MAMKHIZE REACTS TO ROYAL AM SALE
According to sports personality Andile Ncube, MaMkhize was dealt a massive blow by SARS this week.

He tweeted: “A sad day for our football, after months of speculations, it’s done. SARS has won, and Royal AM will be sold.”

 
The announcement follows a court ruling that the reality TV star must settle her unpaid tax debts. It’s unclear who will now take ownership of the club.

Reacting to the news, Mama Joy – Royal AM’s unofficial ambassador – tweeted to her followers: “Have mercy guys. It’s painful”.

The sports fan’s tweet comes a day after she posted that she “misses” her club, whose matches have been suspended by the PSL in recent weeks.

MaMkhize has not officially responded to the news.

ON MAMKHIZE’S PAYROLL?
With Royal AM’s days possibly numbered, many sports fans have questioned if this will affect Mama Joy’s membership or even pocket.

In 2023, Chauke denied reports that she receives a stipend from MaMkhize for being a Royal AM supporter.

Speaking on Robert Marawa’s Marawa Sports Worldwide, Chauke admitted she was friends with the businesswoman and often attended the PSL club games.

When Robert bluntly asked if MaMkhize paid her for her unofficial ambassadorship, she responded: “No. “People are going to say, ‘You chowed Mamkhize’s money’. I don’t know what to say!

“I’m a Royal AM supporter, and she will follow me and check in on me. I don’t get paid by her for what I do. I do it for the love of the game”.
