Mohale Motaung accused of gold digging

Somizi Mhlongo’s ex-husband and now media personality Mohale Motaung is being called out for having love for rich people. Motaung’s marriage to Mhlongo ended abruptly and left a bitter taste to many of their followers.

Mohale posted a picture of singer Makhadzi and her boyfriend singer and music producer Master KG. In the picture Motaung called the pair his ‘fave’. One tweep did not mince their words and called him out for liking ‘rich people’.

That’s why you could never be my fave. ❤️ https://t.co/Ih10qJTDzT

Even when Motaung was still married to Somizi Mhlongo. Fans have always insinuated that he was in the relationship for money and fame. Motaung who comes from humble beginnings met Mhlongo at the launch of his book ‘Dominoes’ back then in 2017.

They have been inseparable ever since. And it was not long before they were celebrated as Mzansi’s favorite couple. The pair went on to tie a knot in a lavish traditional ceremony in September 2019. The following year, January, 2020, Motaung and Mhlongo had their white wedding which was nothing short of rich, expensive, and magical.

There was no looking back for Motaung after that as the entertainment industry opened up to him. He bagged acting gigs, signed endorsements and he also added ‘influencer’ to his name. But when allegations of abuse against Motaung were made public.

The couple became estranged and it was downhill from there. Mhlongo who was accused of the abuse was halted from many of his jobs and he took a hard knock as he lost to one of biggest checks from Idols SA. Both Motaung and Mhlongo have since gone their separate ways and living their best lives. Whether or not they have seen each other since then, that is the biggest elephant in the room.
