Shauwn Mkhize Luxury Auction: Saint Laurent Bag R73K, Lamborghini R4.8M

• Luxury items belonging to Shauwn Mkhize were recently auctioned online, attracting bids from collectors and enthusiasts
• The auction follows a turbulent period for Mkhize, whose former football club faced liquidation due to a substantial tax debt, drawing public attention
• Among the high-profile items were designer accessories and a luxury vehicle, with final sales still pending, keeping the total proceeds undisclosed

Former Royal AM owner and newly appointed President of Eswatini football club Mbabane Highlanders, Shauwn Mkhize, saw several of her luxury items go under auction online on Wednesday, 15 October 2025.

The auction follows a dramatic period for Mkhize and her former club. In September, SARS officers arrived at Royal AM’s training base, Royal Ranch, located along the R56 between Pietermaritzburg and Maqongqo.

Nearly ten trucks were involved in removing furniture and movable property, including luxury vehicles, construction machinery, and shipping containers, as part of an action related to her R40 million tax debt. The debt had earlier led to the liquidation of Royal AM and the club’s expulsion from the PSL.
