The cosy and private setting was far different from Murdah Bongz's previous birthday bashes. Long-time followers of the celebrity couple will remember his milestone 37th birthday in 2024, which was an absolute grand affair. That year, DJ Zinhle completely pulled out all the stops, treating her husband with a massive, star-studded surprise party where she famously gifted him a luxury vintage car. However, for his 39th trip around the sun, the quiet night in was exactly what the doctor ordered.

The relaxing family dinner arrived just days after Murdah and Zinhle touched down back in South Africa from a trip to Namibia. The couple had travelled across the border to shut down the stage for Vault by Morda, and after such a demanding performance schedule, the peaceful birthday dinner provided the perfect opportunity for them to refresh and recalibrate.
