Phelo Bala shook the world when took to social media and showed off that after your first public heartbreak you can bounce back in a tailored suit with a completely new man and no caption.
The one third of the popular Bala Brothers and former “Joyous Celebration” choir member broke the internet after he posted a series of images with what people could only guess was his new man. Phelo first posted the images on Instagram, and maybe recognizing that nothing says I-have-moved-on like matching outfits with new bae, took the snaps and created a post for Twitter to indulge themselves in interrogating and trolling.
Never ones to disappoint, tweeps did as they were required. The tweet has to be Phelo’s most interactive post to date, but it was a messy dragging session. Tweeps filled the post with memes, but they choice of memes were deliberate. Most of the reactions were classic memes, gifs and short videos of from ex and beloved media personality, Moshe Ndiki.
Now for a quick story, before we get to bone of the issue. Once upon a time, South Africa had its most recent same-sex gay IT-couple of partners, Phelo Bala and Moshe Ndiki. The couple had beaten the odds of previously never meeting at the right time, and a family that showed traits of homophobia; think Loyiso Bala. And, eventually the couple made their love public with an engagement story that melted the hearts of many. But it did not take long after for the love story to turn ugly with allegations of alcohol abuse and physical abuse.
After their breakup , one said he had moved on in a video with a friend called Somizi. The second partner, is Phelo Bala and we have come to the end of that story, but the beginning of a new rumored relationship between Phelo and entrepreneur and socialite, Vuyo Varoyi.
If you have never heard of him, do not worry we got you. Vuyo labels himself as an entrepreneur that has three businesses under his name. The man made a name for himself when he was the lead makeup artist during Bonang Matheba’s history making deal with Revlon as the first African ambassador for the beauty brand. Vuyo was the man that touched Queen B*’s face. Now he has a celebrity friends’ list that not includes the Queen, but other stars like Kelly Khumalo and Sarah Langa.
