Norma Mngoma: a no show but still a ‘glow up’ queen?

Norma Mngoma was a no-show at the Commission of Inquiry into Allegations of State Capture and and while many South Africans were hoping she would  share juicy details, eager fashionistas were disappointed not to get a glimpse of her newly found “glow up”.

A “glow up” is a slang term used to describe a huge improvement in someone’s appearance.

Norma Mngoma has taken on a more radiant appearance since she announced her change of surname from Gigaba to Mngoma ,while looking trendier and and a lot more put together.

Perhaps not a popular opinion but marital separation from former finance minister Malusi Gigaba looks good on her.

The troubled marriage was previously described as stormy, with the expose of her estranged husband cheating with stylist Buhle Mkhize.

Here are five times Miss Mngoma brought her A game:

Having dropped her estranged husband’s surname and going back to her maiden name on an Instagram post, she wrote: “Let me reintroduce this beautiful lady, who I’m crushing on her today WCW (women crush Wednesday) … Her name is Norma Mngoma.”

Last week she wrote a message detailing her recent arrest by the Hawks at the hands of her former husband, Malusi Gigaba, and her feelings about the incident.

“Today, I choose to forgive him not that he deserves it but I do it as my part of my healing process, I do it for God and for the sake of our kids. I’m moving on with my life and ready to start everything from scratch as I already started.”
