Thuli Phongolo Shuts Down Rumours Linking Her to Presidential Cartel Chairman Malombo

South African actress and DJ Thuli Phongolo has once again found herself at the center of relationship rumours, this time romantically linked to Malombo, the chairman of the exclusive Presidential Cartel. The rumours began circulating on X after Phongolo shared clips of herself enjoying a luxurious vacation in Cape Town, sparking speculation among netizens.

The Presidential Cartel, known for its members’ lavish lifestyles, jet-setting, and luxury cars, seemed to fit the narrative when Phongolo posted videos dining at a fancy restaurant and clinking champagne glasses with an unidentified man. Another clip showed her driving a Lamborghini, fueling the rumours even more. Many netizens were quick to conclude that the mystery man was none other than Malombo.

One user, @sanelenkosixx, posted the clips with the caption: “Thuli Phongolo currently on vacation in Cape Town with her new boyfriend the President of the Presidential Cartel Malombo, who allegedly bought her a Lamborghini Urus.”

The post went viral, with many users weighing in on the situation. However, Phongolo wasted no time addressing the rumours, making it clear that she is not involved with Malombo. In her response to the original post, she humorously shut down the speculation, stating, “LMAO!!! I’m NOT dating this man child… you can relax!!!  I’d rather bite an electric fence!!!”

Despite her firm denial, some fans remain skeptical. One user, @jacksinthmule8, replied to her: “Well, you also denied the fact that you were dating Porry didn’t you?”
