DJ Zinhle says she is not bothered by comments suggesting she is a member of the LGBTQIA+ community. 

The Umlilo hitmaker set the record straight after a social media user shared a picture of her and her husband kissing with the caption labelling her a “lesbian in denial” wife. 

Reacting to the post, Zinhle wrote; “Nothing is offensive to me about being called a lesbian. It’s untrue but it’s definitely not offensive. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with being a lesbian.”

DJ Zinhle has been happily in love with her partner, DJ and producer Bongani “Mörda” Mohosana.

In episode 1 of season 2 of DJ Zinhle: The Unexpected, Zinhle revealed she had accepted Mörda's proposal when he asked for her hand in marriage.

In early January, Mörda gifted Zinhle a diamond ring in celebration of her 40th birthday and their love for each other. On social media the couple does not shy away from gushing about each other. 

Previously speaking to TshisaLIVE, Mörda spoke about how his priorities had shifted and he was now a family man who was happily in love. 

“I'm in a space where I'm in love. I love my kids and I have to accommodate that. Love changed my life. My wife changed the way I think. My outlook on life is family comes first. I want to tell my story through my music. I can say a lot without the lyrics.”
