We’re used to seeing soccer WAGS all glammed up, but Kaizer Chiefs’ Itumeleng Khune has offered a refreshing look at his partner Sphelele’s “natural beauty.”

The goalkeeper – who remains suspended from the team – gushed over his wife’s make-up-free and natural hair look.

Khune has previously dated actress Minnie Dlamini and fitness expert Sbahle Mpisane.

ITU KHUNE PRAISES ‘NATURAL WIFE’

In an Instagram Story, Khune shared a rare clip of his wife, who sported a bare face and natural Afro.

“All natural,” he captioned the clip of his giggling wife, who wears braces.

In another clip, Itumeleng posted a pic of the females in his life – wife Sphelele and daughters Lesedi Ziyanda and Amogelang Zenande.

In it, the trio appeared to be indulging in a hair pamper session.

“My Afro gang,” he shared of the sweet snap.

Last month, Khune shared a touching tribute to his wife, who has backed him through his recent Kaizer Chiefs setbacks.

“My partner in crime, my forever love, and my favourite cuddle partner,” she shared on IG

FIVE YEARS TOGETHER

Itu and Sphelele began dating in mid-2019, shortly after his relationship with personal trainer Sbahle Mpisane ended. Later that year, the couple tied the knot in a traditional wedding ceremony.

According to an IG Q&A session, Sphelele – who is almost ten years Itu’s junior – claimed they had “dated before.”
