South African influencer Seemah has once again landed in hot water, this time for insulting DJ Zinhle's husband, Murdah Bongz.

The content creator, famous for the Spreading Humours Podcast, was among the supporters who stood up for Zinhle after Murdah was exposed for allegedly cheating on her.

On 9 November 2025, during the latest episode of her podcast, co-hosted with Zille and Yanda Woods, Seemah called Murdah a "dog" for humiliating his wife.

In the midst of the online chaos, Zinhle stumbled upon the YouTuber's video and claimed that the insult "hit her hard."

"Nothing hit me harder than someone calling my husband inja (a dog) and justifying it by saying that I was hurt."

Without mentioning her name, Zinhle went on to reveal that she knew "the lady" and they often messaged each other, and she even supported her business.

This prompted an immediate response from Seemah, who commented on Zinhle's TikTok video addressing the insult and offered a heartfelt apology.

"Molo, sis wam. Please do check your DMs on IG. I will also make a public apology on the podcast. I was angry, yes, but I should've still been respectful about it. Xolo, sis wam."

Months after landing in trouble over the Russian Alabuga job scandal, Seemah was once again at the centre of a controversy, with comments urging her to acknowledge that she had overstepped a boundary.

"If she's upset, it's cool, I'll apologise. I was on her side, I'll just mind my own next time. I talk too much, ka phapha."

"I don’t think it came from a bad place or was disrespectful towards you. She was hurt for you. That was her fighting for you. Please forgive her. She’s still young."

Liz defended Seemah:

"I'm not her fan, but she was on your side. You're angry at the wrong person."

sam added:

"She was fighting for you, Zinhle; women were fighting for you across the country. There's nothing cute about an alleged cheating husband. Unfortunately, you are in the spotlight. You are a role model to many, and your kids. Of course, people will be angry if such things surface and no one addresses them."

Nkanyezi responded:

"I think she was trying to be supportive. I don’t think she meant any disrespect."
