"I genuinely have no idea where these rumours are coming from as I didn't tamper with my Instagram page. Anything displayed there has always been there," says MaKhumalo.
She adds that viewers of the show probably never noticed that she didn't use the Mseleku surname in her Instagram bio before.
"My Instagram account is verified, so I can't just make changes anyhow as it was verified with my surname 'Khumalo' not Mseleku," she says.
MaKhumalo also reveals that her Facebook page is still MaKhumalo Mseleku and hasn't been changed.
