While it is still unconfirmed whether Somhale is indeed ending their marriage, rumours of their divorce began this week when it was reported that Mohale Motaung served businessman, Somizi Mhlongo with divorce papers while vacationing in the Mother City.

Last year Somizi Mhongo shocked Mzansi when he opened up about how Mohale’s phone addiction is affecting his relationship on live Instagram:
“It’s not the phone’s problem. It is the person who is using the phone. So, we are not blaming the phone, the phone doesn’t pick itself up. It’s not even about me feeling neglected. I find it also to be too self-serving. If you are not on Instagram, or Twitter, or Facebook, you are taking pictures, you are taking selfies. I feel like, yoh, sometimes I wish to be touched like that phone.”

Why do I want to listen to society say 'he’s cheated on you twice, leave' what is my heart saying? What is my spirit saying? And my spirit said 'you love him, sit your a** down and do what is best for you and your family'."
