Kagiso Rabada's love life and career

Rabada is unmarried and has no wife. He is known for keeping his private life extremely low-key. He has long been linked to award-winning South African rapper Sho Madjozi. Their relationship first made headlines around 2020. The pair have been spotted together at events and occasionally on social media, although neither has publicly confirmed the relationship.

Rabada first rose to global prominence during the 2014 ICC Under-19 World Cup, where he finished as the leading wicket-taker. He made his international debut for South Africa the following year and made an immediate impact.

One of his standout performances came against Bangladesh, where he recorded figures of 6 for 16, one of the best ODI bowling performances by a South African. He later became the youngest bowler to reach number one in the ICC Test rankings.

See the post by Musa Khawula below:

As of 2026, the 29-year-old has an estimated net worth of R220 million. He has leveraged his cricketing success into a lifestyle that includes high-end real estate, a luxury car collection, and global brand partnerships.

However, Rabada courted controversy in January 2025 when he tested positive for a banned substance during the SA20 tournament. The substance detected was benzoylecgonine, a metabolite linked to a prohibited substance, which brought renewed scrutiny to his conduct and the nature of his subsequent suspension.
