Phat Joe, real name Majota Khambule, was reportedly handed an order by the Western Cape High Court ordering his eviction from the apartment by May 31, and “should they fail or refuse to leave the property by the deadline, the sheriff was authorised to evict them on June 1”.

Kagisho Dikgacoi denies claims his marriage is over

Former Bafana Bafana and Crystal Palace player Kagisho Dikgacoi has urged followers to stop claiming his marriage to Carina McKechnie is over.

Speaking to TshisaLIVE, Dikgacoi, who's busy with his CAF coaching licence, said he blames his hectic schedule for not being part of his family abroad. 

“My wife and I are still married, it's just an opportunity came through for her to work in England. She's a hard worker, and not a single day will pass without talking to her and our kids. I'm still adjusting to her absence at our home, and social media followers aren't making things easy. I'm violated by the remarks, but what can I say. What's in the social media is out of my control. My marriage is intact. From time to time I go to visit my family in England.”
