Barely two hours after media personality Bonang Matheba was pointed out as the third party in a love triangle involving DJ Zinhle and AKA - she has issued a response.
The Metro FM radio presenter was revealed to be the woman who had an affair with AKA, real name Kiernan Forbes for five months, while AKA was expecting a child and seeing Zinhle Jiyane.
In a blog entry, Zinhle said AKA confirmed he had been hooking up with Matheba behind her back.
"A week before our daughter was born, I found out about an affair between Kiernan (the father of my child) and Bonang Matheba. I also received confirmation of all rumours through an honest conversation which I had with Kiernan, who confirmed that the affair had been going on for over 5 months. I will always respect him for his honesty," said Zinhle.
Now, Matheba has responded to the statement, saying she is not involved in a relationship with AKA and anybody else for that matter. The vague statement, issued by Matheba's PR team, DNA Architects called the affair, 'allegations' which are being taken seriously and are being handled by her legal team, presumably on the basis of slander or defamation of character.
The statement failed to address Zinhle directly however or that AKA confirmed his and Matheba's various saucy rendezvous which took place over five months.
"We can however confirm that Ms Matheba is currently not involved in a relationship, as she has always stated. Bonang is solely focused on her work and the projects she is finalising to ensure she wraps up what has been an incredible year, with a bang,“ the statement read.
