In South Africa, the matter of black love has been one of the most polarising subjects. This is as couples that were seemingly happy and willing to share their love stories continually have their relationships end surprisingly. And when the general public looks for answers as to the reason for the end, the couple in question then asks for privacy.

Such was the case with beloved social media couple of travel blogger Thobeka “Thobi” Rose and actor and influencer Lizwe Khumbuza. The couple was goals between 2021 and 2022. However, shortly after going on a promotional trail about their relationship, the couple announced their break up. 

At the time, it was sad news and empathy was shared for the couple. However, as time revealed, it seems that Lizwe belongs to the 666-gang according to the series of events that have since taken place. 

Why Lizwe Khumbuza did Thobi Rose dirty

In December 2020, Thobi Rose and Lizwe Khumbuza shared their love story on the popular Youtube channel celebrating love, Defining Love. From then onwards, the couple served as one example of a couple that aims to inspire love through their own relationship.

As such, in 2022, they were part of GQ Magazine’s series on Black Love. The couple shared how they met, how happy they were in their relationship, how they know they are the one for each other, and what they want for their love by stating in part that: 

“To grow in love and build a legacy for our future. We both want to travel, build a home full of love and share that with people we love.”

This cover story was in February 2022. But by May 2022, the couple had announced their break up and the reason for the end of their relationship started to reveal itself. This is as Thobi’s former acquaintance or friend, depending on who you ask, Luyanda Duma revealed she was pregnant and the father happened to be none other than Lizwe. 

As such, it was assumed that Lizwe had cheated on Thobi with Luyanda. However, things got more complicated when Luyanda revealed that she was getting married to Lizwe. This fact which resulted in Lizwe getting backlash on social media for what is presumed to be his shifty behaviour.
Unfortunately, soon after, there were attempts to also paint Thobi in the same paint as her ex. This is as it was speculated that in order for Thobi to date Lizwe, she had to take him from another woman as he was in a relationship at the time. 

Therefore, Thobi lost Lizwe in the same manner that she had initially “got him.” As such, there are those that have felt that Thobi does not deserve any sympathy given that she has also “stolen” Lizwe when they first started dating.
