Reality TV star Mphowabadimo says she’s now single.

In a clip doing the rounds on social media Mpho can be heard explaining she is moving out of her flat to live on the East Rand because the flat was a “keeper of bad memories”.

She also revealed she was single, which caused some of her fans to suspect the break-up might be a PR stunt.

TshisaLIVE reached out to the reality star but she declined to comment.

Big Brother Mzansi season 3 contestants, Mpho and Themba Broly, found love in each other’s arms and have been the “It” celebrity couple for a while.

Trouble has been brewing between the two and it aired out in public and on the reality show. 

The debut episode of Themba Mabaso’s reality show, Themba: My Inked World, showcased Themba and Nqobile Khuzwayo, the mother of his two children, going back and forth about co-parenting and their previous relationships.

Mpho headed to her Instagram to set a few things straight. 

“I just wanted to clarify bullsh*t. Themba has been in my corner and I’ve also been in my corner,” she said.

“Relationships are never easy for anybody, but just relax ... we are in February but right now you are watching things that were happening prior ... it’s chilled, if he’s just passing by let him pass by it’s not the end of the world, if he’s here for keeps, let him be for keeps but what I won’t do is force a man to love me or force him to be with me. What I’m worried about are my bank notifications.”

The Big Brother Mzansi season 3 winner is expecting her first child with Themba Mabaso, who has daughters from his previous relationship. 

She recently shared about the “special time” in her life by gushing over her pregnancy journey. 

“Pregnancy is a journey ... a very, very long journey. As exhausting as it might be, it’s also an incredibly special time. Every time I feel the gentle kicks I’m reminded there is a miracle growing in my body. I’m pregnant and powerful,” she wrote.
