Enhle Mbali is in a much better space right now after her messy divorce from Black Coffee made headlines. The same woman who promised to do a press conference and then decided to not go through with it, is healing from her 'traumatic' marriage.
Speaking to The South African, Enhle said although she is healed, she still feels as though the justice system failed her dismally. Last year she wanted a protection order against Black Coffee but the courts did not grant her that wish.
On the same day, sis went on IG live alerting the media that she would be holding a press conference where she reveals all.
At the time she said, “I’m going to tell you guys everything. I have been protecting this man for far too long. And all the other women that have come to me for assistance, I will also come at them.”
“This man lied in the court of law. Saying he went under my arm, as tall as he is when he knows very well that he hit me. He struck my hand twice and pushed me into our marital property. I don’t feel safe as he is also psychologically messing with my children. Which is why I had to stand up and fight for myself. He called my children, telling them to stop this whole case. And my child was crying. My child told me that he doesn’t feel like a child anymore. Because of the divorce, because he's got new siblings and so many other things.”
But instead of doing a press conference, she made a documentary called The Voice. She said she has forgiven Black Coffee.
“I had been through a lot in my marriage. A lot of trauma caused by my partner then but I learnt to forgive myself and I had forgiven him a long time ago but it was myself that I didn’t forgive because of some situations.”
Enhle explained to the publication that she feels women in SA are failed by the system. She feels men were created to be protectors of women but are failing dismally.
She then said she feels let down by the courts, “The court system really failed me and when I came out I was so emotional and in pain and also in fear because I just didn’t know what would happen. I did a video and I had said I’m going to do a press conference but after sitting down and sinking in my emotions I thought there is no need for me to break anyone down. I made a conscious decision not to break anyone but to heal,” she said to the publication.
Enhle said she is done fighting but will just use such experiences as lessons from God. As part of her healing process she will also go out on dates just like her Safe Bet character, Pearl Khumalo.
“The Voice was me just saying guys, I’m not going to fight. Whatever the universe hands to me, the universe is handing to me because God is strengthening and teaching me. So I am going to share that I am going on dates, that my heart is opened to love just like Pearl. ”
