Dingaan Siyabonga & Tsholofelo Matshaba’s child drama
Muvhango actors Dingaan Mokebe and Tsholofelo Matshaba are parents to a daughter. Muvhango had the plug back then, and what was being shown on small screens was not just a drama series but also the normal Mzansi way of life.
The two were best-known for their intriguing personality. We can all agree that Meme is one of the unforgettable characters on the show, with her shaved head and cornrows in other scenes. Well, to many, it might be surprising, but it’s hard to believe that their onscreen relationship also transcended off the screen.
James and Meme did date after taking their story beyond the cameras. The two appeared to be in love, just as they did on the small screens. But there was division in paradise, and things went wrong. They ended their affair after only a few years, but they had a daughter as a result of it.
Their public split made countless news headlines, and Mzansi was surprised by the turn of things. After their altercation, Dingaan called Tsholofelo a terrible mother and a kidnapper, accusing her of preventing him from seeing their daughter.
Dingaan Siyabonga Khumalo recently opened up about his difficult journey to gain access to his child after the mother denied him custody. In an emotional podcast interview with Mbono Media, Khumalo shared his heartbreaking experience of being unable to see his daughter, and the emotional toll it has taken on him, according to Zimoja.
“Wherever my daughter is, she is being told your father wants nothing to do with you,” he said.
However, House of Zwide actress Tsholofelo Matshaba refuted the allegations and asserted boldly that she never done what the actor was claiming.
“What Dingaan told listeners were blatant lies. I’ve never deprived him of seeing his daughter, and Dingaan had never made an effort to see his child, even when we were together. He forgot to mention that he used to physically and emotionally abuse me.”
