Record producer Oscar Mbongeni Ndlovu, professionally known as Oscar Mbo, has supporters gushing over his love story with Lerato Phasha. The couple recently gave fans a major update when Lerato shared on her Instagram story a glimpse into “a day in the life of a stay-at-home mom and [fiancée],” effectively announcing that they are now engaged.
Lerato and Oscar have been openly dating for a few years, and earlier this year, they welcomed their son into the world. In June 2025, the couple treated their supporters to an intimate pregnancy photoshoot, showcasing Lerato’s growing baby bump. Oscar, who now has two children, and Lerato have since shared precious moments of their little one and their growing family.
Taking to social media, the Vuka hitmaker surprised fans with the news that their little one had arrived. The announcement came as a delight to many, as the couple had kept their pregnancy journey completely private. In a heartfelt post, Oscar wrote, “A faithful God. Glory!”, expressing his gratitude for this special moment. To mark the occasion, he also shared a cozy and intimate pregnancy photoshoot of the couple.
The family’s joy continued later in the year. On Monday, 8 September 2025, Oscar shared exciting news that he had officially bought a new home for himself and his growing family. This update followed an earlier revelation in June 2025 that he was building a mansion for Lerato, just in time for Christmas. Sharing several pictures of the couple outside their new house, he wrote on Instagram: “New address, same love.”
Earlier this year, Oscar had given fans a sneak peek of the construction progress on Instagram. He shared a video showing the foundation of what looks like a spacious family home and explained why he started the project. He wrote, “Asked her what she wants for Christmas in ‘24, she said a bigger home since we’re expanding our family. I spoke to God and He said; no stress.”
From announcing a private pregnancy to moving into a new home and now getting engaged, Oscar Mbo and Lerato Phasha’s love story continues to warm hearts.
