Podcasters Thakgi Ledwaba and Khanyi Mars have set tongues wagging after footage from a Mercedes-Benz racetrack event all but confirmed what their followers have suspected for months: that the two are more than just colleagues.
On 8 July 2026, Thakgi shared a video of himself behind the wheel of a Mercedes-Benz during a brand-hosted test drive event, co-organised with DJ Shimza. Seated beside him was a female passenger widely believed to be Mars. Although her face never appears on camera throughout the clip, Khanyi posted her own footage from the passenger seat, capturing her excitement as the car tore down the track alongside her rumoured partner.
The two first became familiar faces to each other's audiences through the Piano Pulse podcast, which they co-hosted together before the show was rebranded as Music Pulse and later bid farewell to Khanyi. Speculation about a romance began circulating after Mars made repeated appearances in Thakgi's Instagram photo dumps, though neither of them has publicly addressed the gossip.
Instead of addressing the speculation and questions directly, Khanyi diverts them by focusing entirely on the event, keeping the public guessing about where she stands on the rumoured relationship.
