Nsuku claims Mshini approached Uyanda
Bafethu! It seems we almost had another ship in addition to Sweet Guluva and Ashley Ogle’s inside the Big Brother Mzansi house. During an interview on Podcast and Chill, former contestant Nsuku revealed that Mshini had the hots for Uyanda. She speculated that Uyanda also had feelings for Mshini but never made a move because of gwababa.
“Mshini loved Uyanda and I feel like with Uyanda he was just going back and back and back because he was scared. I feel you were just scared mgani wami. I feel like you were not giving because you know its not an easy thing for a guy to be approached by a beautiful woman,” Nsuku explained.
Uyanda explains why he never proposed
In response, Uyanda explained that he didn’t propose to Mshini out of choice not fear.
“Not that it’s the truth but I’m going to explain. Yes, Mshini is a beautiful lady and everything but for me it was a choice not to go for Mshini,” he responded.
When pressed by Nsuku as well as the Podcast and Chill crew on why he decided not to propose to Mshini, Uyanda revealed that he was in a relationship before he entered the Big Brother Mzansi house.
Social media user @symply_kimm shared a clip of the interaction on X with the caption:
“So Mshini approached Uyanda? See sweet gist
He said he rejected because he had a babe outside.”

Beekay and Nate had partners outside
While Uyanda’s commitment and loyalty is adimirable, having partners outside Big Brother Mzansi didn’t prevent some of his Season 5 housemates from pursuing relationships inside the house.
Briefly News reports that Beekay and Nate became the talk of social media after fans discovered they had partners outside the house.
Nate was often seen smooching other housemates including Jojo.
