Bonang Matheba in 2022 had a tumultuous year. In what was considered one of her most “quite eras” considering that she did not dominate headlines and hosting gigs as she used to in the past. A fact which could have to do with the matter of her legal battles in order to assert the ownership of her sparkling wine brand, House of BNG.

In 2022, Matheba would only occasionally grab headlines. Whether it was when she hosted Global Citizen as her first big gig of 2022, or becoming the ambassador of Nivea following the matter of her without makeup trending, or most recently, her collaboration with Steve Madden.
Matheba in 2022 did not do what she is most beloved for by her fanbase, and that is television presenting and hosting. Nor did she return to radio as since she left Metro FM in a huff a years back, calls for her to return to radio have been abundant.
I hope we get an entire different show. Being Bonang international on steroids. https://t.co/CwiEzt7XPc

Bonang should try us out with a proper talk show this year. All the country has is that terrible podcast

But now it seems that her absence from the public eye might have to do with the fact that Matheba is in love and is looking to preserve her relationship and the privacy thereof as long as possible.

Other famous boyfriends Bonang Matheba has been linked to in 2022:
- Major League DJz
In 2020, it seems that Bonang Matheba and Banele are learning to care less and less about making a spectacle of their growing love story more public. First it was Matheba offering to sit on one of the twin’s faces which we can assume meant Banele.
Now, as the newly named ambassador of Nivea, Matheba was the host of their latest star-studded event with the likes of Shekhinah and former Miss South Africa Shudufhadzo Musida all in attendance.
Taking to Twitter, Matheba shared a few snaps from the event and guess who commented? Moreover, Matheba took the time to respond and share that she received flowers from a man whom she loves so much. But as to his identity, this time she did not tag anybody/ So we can only guess…
- Big Zulu
In early March 2022, Big Zulu and Bonang Matheba became the talk of the town after a video of the two talking while holding hands went viral. In the video, Big Zulu appeared to be vibing Bonang who appeared to have been feeling the vibe and blushing.
