• Social media is buzzing after the once-beloved couple Thimna Shooto and Libho Geza were rumoured to have rekindled their love
• This comes after Geza shared a video of him and his ex-girlfriend together, instantly piquing their fans' curiosity, and it wasn't long before Thimna broke her silence to address the speculation
• The Love Island South Africa star debunked the "love back" rumours and claimed that it was taken way out of context, sparking another spicy debate online

Mzansi’s favourite Love Island South Africa winners have sent the internet into absolute overdrive, but it is not the romantic reunion fans were hoping for. Four years after their highly publicised 2022 breakup, Thimna Shooto has aggressively shut down claims that she and her ex-boyfriend Libho Geza are back together, accusing him of manipulating content for clout.

The chaos erupted on 6 July 2026, when Libho posted a short video alongside his Buff & Shine Podcast co-host Bheki Ndamase and a surprise guest - Thimna.

In the clip, the two podcasters stand in frame before inviting Thimna to step in. The former couple instantly share a laugh over what sounds like inside jokes, leaving the other co-host looking completely clueless. The cosy interaction immediately sent social media users into a frenzy, with ecstatic fans celebrating what they assumed was a relationship relaunch.

However, a furious Thimna quickly took to her own TikTok page to set the record straight using the popular "put a finger down" format.

She explained that she merely bumped into Bheki while out, and despite being acquaintances, he was hesitant to interact with her because he is now best friends with her ex. Trying to ease the tension, Thimna told him "it’s not that deep" and decided to be friendly and cordial.

The Love Island South Africa star ended up spending the rest of the outing with the pair, casually discussing sports. During the hangout, one of them suggested shooting a quick "outfit check" video to showcase their looks. Thimna reveals they used her phone, and she fully expected the final clip to feature the two men; instead, they asked her to step in. The content creator was left blindsided when the footage surfaced online two weeks later.
