Something is clearly going on in Ayanda Thabethe's world. The South African socialite has removed her husband Peter Matsimbe's surname from all her social media accounts, and the blue Rolls-Royce Cullinan he gifted her in 2024 has quietly appeared on the market for nearly R15 million.

The 2024 Rolls-Royce Cullinan is listed at R14,999,990 through Carshop Rivonia, with 24,750 km on the clock. The vehicle runs on a 6.7 V12 petrol engine and is in used but automatic condition. That the car was a gift from Matsimbe makes its listing all the more significant to those watching the couple's relationship closely.

The Rolls-Royce is not the only major asset changing hands. The couple's five-bedroom home in Bryanston is also on the market and already under offer, reportedly listed well below its estimated value of over R24 million. According to reports, Ayanda has since moved in with her sister, actress Lungile Thabethe, after reportedly leaving the marital home.
