Annie Mthembu's ex-husband has finally come forward to address the cheating allegations against him.
Businessman and nightclub owner, Kgolo Daguru's marriage crumbled after his wife left The Real Housewives of Durban, which coincided with a downturn in his business.
Annie revealed in an interview on Engineer Your Life that the reason she left Daguru was that he was seeing other women behind her back, leaving her humiliated and blindsided by who he really was in the outside world.
“No one likes to be cheated on. It makes you question yourself a lot. Are you enough, you know, is there something wrong with me?"

Annie's interview sparked backlash, leaving Kgolo with no choice but to address the situation with an apology to his former wife and the mother of his children.
He responded to a snippet of the conversation on Instagram on 12 August 2025, apologising to Annie for betraying her and their family, and alluding to facing personal struggles:
"No matter the personal struggles I was facing, there's never an excuse for dishonouring God's blessings. I deeply regret the pain l've caused you. As the head of the family, I let everyone down."

The businessman went on to bid farewell to his ex-wife and wished her well:
"Annie, from the bottom of my heart, I wish you true love, healing and peace. Farewell, Pretty Wings."
Her interview followed his own, in which he spoke about the end of their marriage as well as how AKA and Tibz's murders affected him.
It also follows the mounting cheating scandals that have been unearthed this week and begs the question of what really goes on behind the doors of some of the country's biggest stars.
Here's how social media reacted to Daguru's apology
South Africans ridiculed Kgolo's apology and supposed pet name for Annie, "Pretty Wings," which references singer Maxwell's song about a relationship that didn't work out.
olwethumtati laughed:
"Pretty wings? Yhoo, men are so foolish!"
LaciaMolaoli was in disbelief:
"Men have no shame!!! They hurt you, apologise, and still hit you with a dramatic farewell. Imagine 'Pretty Wings', I would fast for 40 days and 40 nights, bru!"
