Mzansi’s entertainment scene is abuzz with drama as actress Mbalenhle Mavimbela, known for her role in The Wife, has accused her alleged boyfriend, Durban-based music producer Dlala Thukzin, of cheating. In a series of emotional statements during a live stream on X (formerly Twitter), Mbalenhle expressed her hurt, leaving fans speculating about the state of their relationship.
The controversy began when Mbalenhle noticed a video online showing another woman wearing a jacket that looked strikingly similar to hers. Addressing her followers, she shared her suspicions and disappointment. “I am not sure if it is mine because I saw only a glimpse of it, but guys, it does look like mine,” she said, visibly distressed.
Her live stream quickly gained traction, with fans offering support and weighing in on the situation. “You’re really hurting me,” she said with a forced laugh, before sighing, “I am going to cry, but I can’t cry on live.”
Mbalenhle refrained from directly confronting the woman in question, emphasizing that her issue was with Dlala Thukzin. “I don’t like fighting with the girl; it is always the guy,” she stated. She also humorously remarked on men’s behavior, saying, “Yeah, men work with usathane [the devil]. I think they meet at night. I also think the devil tries to steal their happiness.”
Fans and social media users have been quick to speculate on the situation. Some believe the allegations could be part of a publicity stunt, especially since rumors suggest Mbalenhle is preparing to release her debut single.
Dlala Thukzin has not yet addressed the allegations, leaving fans curious about his side of the story. Many pointed out that the producer has faced similar accusations in the past, fueling discussions about patterns of behavior and accountability in celebrity relationships.
Whether it’s a personal issue or a calculated PR move, Mzansi remains glued to their screens for updates on the drama unfolding between Mbalenhle and Dlala Thukzin.
