The pair had known each other for 10 years and dated for five, making the news of their sudden split all the more shocking for fans who viewed them as a solid industry power couple.
They became an overnight sensation after a video of Ntandokazi’s composed and soft-spoken demeanour toward her partner went viral. Her "demure" approach resonated deeply with male audiences, who quickly hailed her as the personification of 'wife material' and a new benchmark for the ideal partner.
Since then, they managed to break through the influencer space, collaborating with brands and building loyal communities of supporters who admire their authenticity and have become deeply invested in the life they built together in the public eye.
The news of their breakup comes shortly after their celebrated engagement, leaving followers questioning what went wrong so shortly after they had committed to spending their lives together, adding a layer of heartbreak to a breakup that few saw coming.
