Murdah Bongz’s Rumoured Side Chick Sands Releases Statement Amid Affair Allegations

• The woman who was rumoured to be Murdah Bongz's mistress has officially addressed the allegations
• After a week of relentless digging into the alleged affair, Sands finally cleared the air and denied any romantic involvement with the former Black Motions member
• This comes after Murdah's wife, DJ Zinhle, shared cryptic messages on social media, seemingly relating to the scandal

Sands, the lady accused of having an affair with Murdah Bongz, finally lifted the lid on their "relationship" following a week of intense public scrutiny and viral "receipts" that she claims were taken entirely out of context.

She shot to notoriety after a series of posts featuring her in clothing strikingly similar to Murdah’s were instantly flagged by online users, who interpreted it as her showing off their romance and ultimately rubbing it in DJ Zinhle's face.

Breaking her silence in a detailed social media statement on 18 February 2026, the content creator clarified that her connection to the DJ and producer was that of a fan of his musical craft, rather than the "side chick" she had been painted as.

"I am undoubtedly a big fan of his music and craft, and I have always demonstrated that by purchasing tickets to attend most of his concerts, album listening parties, and show support like any fan would do by purchasing his merchandise."

Sands went on to say that, being in a committed relationship herself, she valued her partner and would never risk putting herself in a situation that would jeopardise their relationship or compromise her morals.

Revisiting the viral video that first fueled the speculation, she maintained that the footage was taken completely out of context and lashed out at those peddling the "side chick" narrative without a single piece of concrete evidence to back it up.

The visual in question featured Sands holding bouquets of red roses while sporting a black Mörda-branded sweater, with critics pointing to the romantic symbolism of the flowers and the choice of apparel as proof of a secret connection.

"I still can't comprehend how on earth would me purchasing merchandise with my own money, deciding to wear it and making a video would be translated into such! Clearly, you guys are completely out of stories to post such derogatory and fake news without evidence or any proof."
