This follows after they have deleted each other’s picture from their respective Instagram accounts, and we don’t know if this means they have ended their relationship. In addition, Lunga has disappeared from Thando’s IG stories, further fueling the rumor.

Moreover, as Marawa addressed the latest dating allegations. It was further reported:

However, Robert Marawa seemingly poured cold water on the dating rumours. When contacted for a comment, he said he did not know about it. He said: 

“I don’t know what you are talking about.”

In light of the speculation, when there seemed to be an image being circulated on that seemed to suggest that Thando might be pregnant. It seems that Thando did damage control to make sure that the matter was addressed subtly, but pushed the point across. 

Thando Thabethe is not pregnant
On social media, there was an image from a paternity shoot which was ciruclated. In the picture in question, the pregnant expecting mom looked exactly like Thando Thabethe.

As such, when looking at the picture in isolation, it was easy to assume that Thando was pregnant. A fact which social media users quickly lapped up. 
However, all it took was scrolling further down the timeline to realise that this was not Thando Thabethe. In fact, it was a content creator by the Neontle who was behind the images and was the expecting mom.

Moreover, Thando seemingly finding out that she might be rumoured to be pregnant. More so after sharing what initially was seen as confirmation images on her Instagram.
The personality has since returned to social media to make it clear that she is in no way expecting a little one.
