It seems that we might need to start finding new ways to describe the civil union between Somizi Mhlongo-Motaung and his partner, Mohale Mhlongo-Motaung. Just months ago, it was reported that the couple was facing rocky time in their marriage. Somizi spoke about how cell phones and social media had created a wedge in their relationship, and that the couple was working on healing that wedge by creating rules in the family that would ensure that does not occur.
And for a while, on social media of course, it seemed that things were going back to love-lives-here. There were cute images of what Somizi made for them again livening up the ‘Gram. There were exchanged Instagram husband images. And who could forget the safari trip that the two took, with the Economic Freedom Fighters’ “Julius Malema “ tagging along for the trip on Somizi’s knee- if you get it, you get it.
But maybe things have again taken another turn towards umjolo-uyasigowisha because things that were already complicated, seemed to have gotten even more complex. The relationship between Vusi Nova and Somizi has been one that has captured the imagination of the public. What started off as another bromance, has clearly escalated. When the two made their friendship public they were a squad that included friend, Mpho Pops, and Somizi’s ex and what we hope is still one of his best friends, TT Mbha.
But Somizi and Vusi seemed to have ditched what we can only refer to as the “dead weight” and kept watering their relationship. So much so that Somizi could refer to Mr Nova as his “true endless love.” In the picture he shared of the two of them, again the married man can be seen glowing more than he has in the recent images he has shared with his husband, Mohale. And fans and Instagram followers were quick to notice how fun Somizi has every time that Vusi is present.
And if like us, you were wondering where his actual husband was? Mohale was attending a funeral, a funeral with a theme of “all black with a touch of red.” Yes, funerals have themes now too, even in South Ahh. And it seems that the only comfort that Mohale was getting was from fellow mourners and friends, while his husband was having the time of his life in the presence of his “true endless love.”
