Mdoda and Nxumalo allegedly communicate via email

The final nail to the coffin is that the couple now reportedly communicates with each other via emails.

Thembisa Mdoda and Mfanelo have a child together, a baby boy that they welcomed into the world in 2024. In 2023, she shared cute pictures from her baby shower draped in a cute baby blue dress.

At the boy's recent birthday celebration, it is said that Nxumalo was absent despite spending a fortune on the festivities.

Attempts from family members to try and mend their marriage failed as they came to the realisation that the union is over. “The family has been informed about their separation; many people know about it, it is no longer a secret,” a source was quoted as saying.

More on Thembisa Mdoda's 1st marriage

Mdoda was married to actor Atandwa Kani but their marriage ended dramatically. The son of veteran actor John Kani accused Mdoda of cheating on him.

To make matters worse he also allegedly questioned the paternity of their twin boys. According to Sunday World, Kani conducted a paternity test and found out that the boys were apparently not his. Mdoda distanced herself from Kani in an interview on Vuzu's The Cover.

In 2021, during a wedding ceremony, Mdoda was invited to speak and during her speech, she threw shade at Atandwa Kani and their union saying she did not recognise the marriage.

"I do not recognise my first marriage. In fact, it does not even count and I do not expect people to recognise it."
