Big Brother Mzansi star Brandon “Gash1” Mthombeni has all but confirmed that his three-year marriage to Thato Immaculate Mthombeni (née Mokoena) is over.

When she clarified why she was splitting from the man she met in the Big Brother Mzansi season four house, some fans were hopeful that the couple would resolve their differences, but Gash1’s latest move now suggests reconciliation is unlikely, at least for the time being.
