Thuli Phongolo is someone who has lived quite a life, from being a full-time actress, to an influencer and eventually a DJ. She was in a public relationship with renowned producer and DJ Maphorisa, until their relatively recent split. The actress has come out to dispel any relationship rumours between her and the chairman of The Presidential Cartel Malombo.

Rumours of Thuli dating Malombo come months after her infamous split with famous boyfriend DJ Maphorisa. Their relationship was filled with a few scandals, including allegations of abuse.

The rumours recently intensified as the former Generations actress is reported to currently be on holiday in Cape Town, sharing a few moments, which include the hand of an unidentified man. Word on the street is that the trip was sponsored by Thuli’d new rumoured bae.

Shutting the rumours down, Thuli quickly responded to the same post by denying any intimate relationship with Malombo, who Thuli refers to as a man-child.

“LMAO!!! I’m NOT dating this man child… you can relax!!! 🤣 I’d rather bite an electric fence!!!” Thuli responded

We can only wait to see whether netizens will buy Thuli’s story, as she recently made headlines after she bought one luxurious Lamborghini Urus, which reportedly retails at approximately R6 million. Users are of the impression that Thuli would not be able to afford a car of that calibre on her own dime, while Malombo is known to buy expensive cars for his partners.

Furthermore, other users took the opportunity to remind Thuli that she also denied dating DJ Maphorisa, until the abuse allegations surfaced.
