Mihlali gets candid about her relationship with a married man

Popular influencer and make-up artist Mihlali Ndamase was the latest guest to appear on Showmax’s Unfollowed. Ndamase was grilled by the presenter, Thembekile Mrototo, about “homewrecking, gold-digging, and an alleged assault”.

Ndamase, who is currently in a relationship with businessman Leeroy Sidambe, was asked why she chose a married man.


“Oh, no, darling, it’s not my place to wait. I’m not the one who’s married. It is him who decided that he wants to find a partner and date someone.”

The beauty queen said she does not care about people’s opinions, especially with Sidambe’s divorce woes, legal battles, and business scandals.

“When people have nothing to come at you about, then they are going to find something to constantly dig at. They’re going to try and find something that they feel might be a weakness. Honestly, people’s opinions have nothing to do with my reality,” said Ndamase.

She explained that she keeps her private life private because she feels like in this industry, every single woman’s work gets linked to a man, and a man is credited for who she is.

When confronted with rumours that her lover had mistreated his ex-wife, his ex-girlfriend, and their children, she said she would not speak on anything that she did not know about.

Mihlali Ndamase was also asked about assaulting controversial blogger Musa Khawula, who allegedly leaked her phone number and address online, petitioned for brands to cut ties with her, and insulted her mother.

“Have you seen me assaulting anyone? I don’t know who that is. All I’m gonna say is, if you come for my family, I will come for you. Full stop. Next question.”

In the episode, she also talks about her biggest mistake on Twitter.
