Omuhle Gela denies dating a married man

Omuhle Gela is not about to let her reputation go down the drain. The actress, who’s reportedly dating a married Limpopo businessman, took to Twitter to set the record straight about the alleged affair. She started off by calling South African Journalists “lazy.”

This comes after Sunday Sun reported that the Umlilo actress has been in a relationship with Jeff Sibanda since early last year. A source told the paper: “What gave her away was a selfie she took. The background wasn’t clear, but I could see Jeff”s house.

“I commented on her Instagram page and said ‘Oh, that’s Jeff’s house’. She deleted the picture and blocked me immediately – and that confirmed what I’d heard.”

Other sources apparently told the paper that they spotted the actress and model “playing lovey-dovey” with the Limpopo tycoon.

The source added: “I wonder if Omuhle knows that Jeff is married.”

When called for comment, Jeff told Sunday Sun: “I know that girl through Mpho Malema. We’ve had a chat before, but not about love or anything of that nature.”

Omuhle said: “You guys are going to make me lose my job. I’m a single woman. I know Jeff – he’s Mpho Malema’s friend. Just the other day people said I’m dating Mpho, but I only went to Polokwane twice. People just like creating boyfriends for me.”
