Matthew Booth, the former footballer and Bafana Bafana star, and his girlfriend Bongani Moller's relationship has continued to grow.

This despite having started to date when they were still married to their partners, effectively cheating on them and resulting in a scandal that ignited mainly hate on the socials.

Almost three years after the couple got exposed, Booth and Moller's relationship still appears to be strong, much to the disappointment of fans who wish to see karma play out swiftly against the duo.

The couple is currently trending following an X user's quote tweet expressing her karmic expectations. She captioned the post:

Fans react to the post

X users flooded the post with their opinions. @_MGLKD_ defended Booth, writing:

"Maybe this is karma for Sonia. Phela we never got to know why Booth left her."

@Nthabile17 commented on the karma point, saying:

"Life is not a Nigerian movie 😂😂."

Another user, @_Awongwa_, wrote:

"There’s no karma, it doesn’t exist. And this is proven by years of slavery and apartheid."

The owner of the original post replied to the above user with questions:

"Okay. So, how do you get back at people then? Do you have to take it into your own hands?"

Seemingly doubling down, the post owner left a comment of her own. She wrote:

"I encourage Sonia to take matters into her own hands 😭."

She added another comment:

Another user, @dimphomanala, offered an analysis, commenting:

"People need to understand that the universe doesn’t know right from wrong. It only responds to energy! They are clearly happy and in love, that’s what they exude. So, the universe follows suit. The other party was negative and distraught and the universe responded to that energy!"

@Dee_Amu added a comment that echoed an earlier user's take on Nigerian movies. He wrote:

"Karma exists only in Tyler Perry’s movies."
