As a family man, Mondli decided to settle down when he was 22 years old. The mother of his two children is Australian, so their backgrounds and cultural beliefs were different. This resulted in the failure of their marriage.

“I was married to an Australian woman and we have two kids today, but it did not work because of many things, but mostly our cultural differences,” said the actor.
