Boitumelo Masemola has sent her fans into a frenzy after dropping a pregnancy announcement on Instagram, complete with a gorgeous set of baby bump photos. The actress and TV producer kept things cryptic, choosing not to reveal who the father is, which has only added to the excitement buzzing around the news.

The post, shared on 15 October 2026, was simple but effective. Masemola paired the photos with a pink heart emoji and the hashtags #Motherhood and #Positiveparentingsa, letting the bump do all the talking.

Boitumelo's journey to baby number three

This will be Boitumelo's third child. She shares two daughters with fellow creative Mandla N, her former partner of 16 years. Their split was anything but quiet — Mandla publicly accused Boitumelo of unlawfully withdrawing over R2 million from their shared bank account, making their separation one of Mzansi's most talked-about celebrity breakups.
