Malcolm Wentzel has once again warmed hearts across Mzansi by sharing a collection of sweet moments with his domestic worker Thembi Ubisi just ahead of Mother's Day. The TikTok star, who has gained over a million followers through videos of his unique relationship with Thembi, posted a video in early May, showing the pair dancing, having fun, and spending quality time together at his home.

The videos show that their relationship goes far beyond that of a typical employer and employee, with Thembi treated more as a family member.

A special bond

The video compilation was shared on Malcolm's TikTok page @malcolm_fkn_wentzel with the caption:

"Don't worry be happy. Almost mothersday!!! #fknarmy."

This suggests that Wentzel sees Thembi as a mother figure in his life. This would explain the timing of the post as South Africa prepares to celebrate Mother's Day.

This is not the first time Malcolm has shown his appreciation for Thembi. Besides the car he had previously gifted her, he once surprised her with a trip to a luxury watch store. In that viral video, Malcolm reminded Thembi that she had been wearing the same watch he gave her for 12 years while she looked after him, and suggested she get herself "a nice Rolex."

The pair has even made an appearance on Die Real Housewives van Pretoria, further cementing their status as beloved South African personalities. Although Malcolm posts various conversations between them, fans agree that it's Thembi who often steals the show with her genuine reactions and charming personality.

Here is another TikTok video:

The FKN Army that Wentzel mentions in his hashtag is a movement he created aimed at "changing the lives of ordinary hard-working people" and bringing "refreshed energy into the world." Through this platform, he often performs generous acts and giveaways, with Thembi frequently at the centre of his kind gestures.
