Reality TV star Shauwn 'MaMkhize' Mkhize has broken her silence following rumours that she bought Eswatini Giants Mbabane Highlanders, which is based in the Kingdom of Eswatini.

This comes after Mkhize failed her legal bid to reinstate Royal AM in the PSL earlier in July.

The reality TV star and businesswoman made her first official speech as president of Mbabane Highlanders. Social media user @TheSportsGu01 shared a video on X of Mkhize's speech on Saturday, 12 July.

Mkhize was accompanied by her son, Andile Mpisane, and his wife, Tamia Mpisane, when he made her first appearance at the club over the weekend.

"They said their colours are black, and I said this is the unity of South Africa and Eswatini. What can I bring along, enhance the black that they've had? So, I decided to add the gold on the black," says Mkhize.

Mkhize also confirmed her new club on her Instagram account on Sunday, 13 July, and wrote:

"A new chapter ,written with purpose, vision, and heart. Leading with honour, the Highlanders way."

"This played right could be a smart move. SA is a mature market. Africa has so much potential. SADC has so much potential. A lot of quality South African players will now migrate to Eswatini."

@NongaloMsweli2 responded:

"I still say there must be some huge financial benefit associated with owning a team because there is no way all these people will want to be club owners so bad without a reason."

"She destroyed Bloem Celtic. Now she's moving on to Swaziland?"

"Instead of paying tax, she's buying another club. Always making terrible decisions."

"I give that team 4 months. Then it will be under investigation for tax evasion."

"It's nice to be part of the political elite in SA. Either you steal it or you are connected only way to the top."

In more entertainment, Briefly News reported this July that Shauwn 'MaMkhize' Mkhize has seemingly reacted to her name being mentioned in allegations made by Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi and Ian Cameron.

The chairperson of the Police Portfolio Committee revealed on Monday that illegal firearms belonging to Vusumuzi 'Cat' Matlala were kept at Mkhize's home.

South Africans took to social media this week to criticise the former Royal AM boss and former Uzalo actress.
