Khanyi Mbau ‘already married’ to Tebogo Lerole

We think it is safe to declare 2016 a year of secret weddings, as Khanyi Mbau might also have recently tied the knot.


TV and radio presenter Khanyi Mbau has revealed that she is already married to her long-time boyfriend Tebogo Lerole.

Responding to a fan on Instagram on Monday, Mbau said she was already married to Lerole, after the fan asked her to marry him.

Not that we’re surprised, the couple have been together for years and are one of those who prefer to keep certain details under wraps.

And also, Lerole did tell a fan last year in a question-and-answer session with his followers on Instagram that he would marry his “Chunky” soon. We guess he meant 2016.

Mbau celebrated her 31st birthday on the weekend, and her boyfriend – or should we say husband – took to Instagram to share a sweet message to “Chunky”.

“Happy birthday to you my QUEEN, here’s to yet another amazing journey full of growth, laughter and love. I love you Chunky Mbau bOo,” he wrote.

One of his followers also commented, calling Mbau “our makoti”.

If it’s true, congratulations to the couple – we wish you many more years of happiness and marital bliss.

How these celebs manage to keep such secrets baffles our minds. First it was TV presenter Pabi Moloi, who secretly got married and only told us a week later. Then Nandi Madida, who managed to keep her marriage to musician Zakhele Madida secret, later revealing her pregnancy at her fashion show.

Then former miss South Africa Bokang Montjane just started calling Simphiwe Tshabalala “hubby”, confirming rumours that they too secretly got married.

We are yet to see if the engagement rumours Bonang Matheba sparked on Twitter were real or fans overreacting.
