Reality television star and original slay queen, Khanyi Mbau sent shock waves across the continent after announcing that her brand manager, Dylan Musanhu who was widely known as Dylan Kardashian had passed on. She shared the sad news through her social media. The news left a big question mark on the minds of fans as nothing was said about what led to his death - Masanhu was quite popular on the internet.

A few hours ago, The Herald reported that the rising star had committed suicide. The reason which led him to take his life is yet to be established. There hasn’t been any official statement from his family or close friend Khanyi Mbau regarding the cause of his passing or funeral arrangements.
Dylan was born in Zimbabwean but raised here in South Africa before relocating to England a few years ago with his family.

The 25-year-old started gaining popularity after American megastar Nicki Minaj shared numerous Instagram stories about him. His fame grew even more after Minaj regrammed a photo featuring Dylan and herself. The photo gained over sixty thousand likes which were massive at the time. Other Hollywood A-listers who took notice of his work were Snooki and Kim and Khloe Kardashian.
