• Former Kaizer Chiefs captain Jimmy Tau has reportedly married his long-term girlfriend, Thabile Tau
• The Newzroom Afrika CEO and soccer analyst reportedly tied the knot in a secret ceremony in Gauteng province
• Kaizer Chiefs fans and fans of the senior journalist have taken to social media to congratulate them

Jimmy Tau has allegedly married his on-and-off-again girlfriend, Thabile Ngwato, less than a year after his separation from his wife, Tsholofelo Mhlongo.

The former Kaizer Chiefs captain and the Newzroom Afrika boss was spotted together in Bryanston dining at a well-known restaurant in March 2025.

Sunday World reports the former Kaizer Chiefs defender, and the Newzroom Afrika CEO, tied the knot in a private wedding ceremony nearly two weeks ago at Muldersdrift, in Gauteng.

Tau’s close friends reveal to the publication that their wedding was attended by family members and close friends, who were asked to keep the ceremony private.

Ngwato refused to comment on her alleged wedding to Tau when she was contacted for a comment.

Zimoja reported in March 2025 that the soccer analyst and his baby mama, Tsholofelo Mhlongo divorced a year ago but remain good parents to their child.

SABC's sports reporter XoliswaZondo reported on her X account on Saturday, 10 May that Tau and Ngwato have tied the knot.

Daily Sun reported in 2015 that Ngwato was in a relationship with MK Party's Floyd Shivambu.
