‘Idols’ winner Khaya Mthethwa’s romance with actress and ex-girlfriend Nomzamo Mbatha was apparently never particularly serious.

According to Drum magazine, the singer has finally spoken up about his relationship with former ‘Isibaya’ actress Nomzamo, who he reportedly dumped after she cheated on him.

The magazine reports that Khaya has said that he wouldn’t say the relationship was ever really serious, and that they never bothered to make it public because they apparently both “knew it was not going anywhere”.

Khaya’s claims are in stark contrast to earlier reports that he was completely heartbroken after dumping her, and rumours that he had already paid R40 000 lobola for her.

Meanwhile, rumours have been doing the rounds that MTV Base VJ Nomuzi Mabena is furious with Nomzamo, who she claims has stolen boyfriend Thomas Gumede from her.
