Natasha Thahane’s recent journey into motherhood has been anything but conventional, fueling speculation and curiosity among fans and followers. The baby’s paternity, in particular, has been a subject of fervent discussion, with many speculating that Orlando Pirates’ star, Thembinkosi Lorch, was the child’s father.
However, a recent court statement during Lorch’s GBV (Gender-Based Violence) trial has cast new light on the situation. Lorch’s legal representative, Pierre de Kock, strategically excluded Thahane’s child from his plea, raising questions about the real identity of the baby’s father. This revelation has the potential to lay to rest the swirling rumors that had declared Natasha Thahane as Mrs. Lorch.
Lorch’s trial took place at the Randburg Magistrate Court, where he faced allegations of assaulting his ex-girlfriend, Fundiswa Nokuphiwa Mathithibala. De Kock, in an effort to secure a more lenient sentence for the soccer sensation, presented a statement to the court that disclosed crucial details about Lorch’s children. According to De Kock, Lorch has an eight-year-old child and a three-year-old child. Neither of which are related to Natasha Thahane’s one-year-old baby. The South African, a local news outlet, reported that Lorch’s legal counsel argued. “As a soccer player, his salary fluctuates, and his salary is roughly R50,000. He has to send money to his first child who lives with their mother in Qwa-Qwa, and he lives with his other child. My client will appreciate a suspended sentence.”
The revelation comes as a significant twist in the narrative surrounding the relationship between Natasha Thahane and Thembinkosi Lorch. Their romance first came to public attention during a romantic getaway to Zanzibar. Where their secret relationship was inadvertently exposed on social media. Their high-profile affair soon became a topic of public fascination. The couple’s actions, including posting wedding-like pictures at the same time, sparked rumors of an impending wedding.
Yet, when Natasha Thahane gave birth, she chose to keep the identity of the baby’s father hidden from the public eye. Her pregnancy, initially known only a month before the birth, took her fans by surprise. Her discretion added to the intrigue, and speculations about the baby’s father continued to swirl.
