DJ Zinhle’s open letter, written when the late rapper Kiernan ‘AKA’ Forbes cheated on her with Bonang Matheba, has resurfaced amid new allegations against her husband, Murdah Bongz.

On Wednesday, 5 November 2025, controversial celebrity gossip monger Musa Khawula, who made serious allegations against Murdah Bongz, unearthed DJ Zinhle's open letter. In 2015, DJ Zinhle publicly outed AKA for cheating on her with Bonang Matheba for five months while she was pregnant with their daughter, Kairo Forbes.

DJ Zinhle said that while she initially didn’t want to discuss the reasons for their breakup publicly, she felt it was important to speak up for herself because AKA and Bonang kept displaying their relationship in public.

“I have dealt with this and found peace with his choice. After the release of our first statement regarding the separation I felt that there was no need to go into details about the reasons, however, after the continued public display of Kiernan and Bonang’s relationship as well as the commentary surrounding it, it has become important for me to affirm my power as a woman, my strength of character, my continued focus on my work and my commitment to being a positive role model,” part of the letter reads.
