South African television personality, Phumeza Shoba, has reportedly concluded her marriage to Mnqobi Shoba after more than ten years together — and the chatter on social media is buzzing!
11 Years Over?
Sources suggest that the former Sokhulu & Partners actress initiated divorce proceedings in July 2025, suddenly ending her 11-year relationship.

The actress, who recently celebrated her son Mpilo Shoba’s incredible international achievement, has allegedly accused Mnqobi of infidelity, emotional, and psychological abuse. Not only is she distancing herself from the marriage, but Phumeza is also pursuing financial assistance — seeking R45,000 in monthly spousal support, along with an additional R5,000 to care for their partially blind son.
Sunday World unveiled the story on 7 September 2025, revealing insider insights into the couple’s rocky separation.

Infidelity Claims Rock Phumeza Shoba’s Marriage
While Mrs. Shoba has not publicly commented (she was unavailable for response at the time of writing), the allegations have sparked heated conversations online.
One X user, @Pinkdoll_love, commended Phumeza’s decision: “Honestly, I think this was a strong and healthy choice. It’s never easy to part after 11 years, but remaining after discovering infidelity would’ve been draining. Choosing to leave shows she values her self-respect and well-being.”
Conversely, others were less understanding, with @chiefcebo_ suggesting: “Women would never divorce unless they found a replacement. She must have someone else. She should be ashamed.”
However, many fans agreed that infidelity is a vicious cycle. @NobeelSun summarized it aptly: “The most draining part of having a cheating partner is that they never stop! It’ll just be one woman after another.”

Mzansi Reacts: “The Black Coffee Effect”
As expected, the timeline is brimming with perspectives. Some feel Phumeza deserved more after dedicating herself to her family.
@MatisoSiba commented: “She had to step away from her career to care for their special needs child, and he dares to cheat? I hope she finds healing and receives sufficient support for her children.”
Others connected Mnqobi’s alleged behaviors to his high-profile lifestyle and associations. @Zukoh humorously observed: “His ties to Black Coffee brought him into contact with women he couldn’t resist. The man is always surrounded by stunning women from around the world.”
@BigGxabashe added humorously, saying: “The Black Coffee effect. 🔥🔥 Show me your friends and I’ll show you your future, 😂😂 Just kidding.”
Many were astonished that Mnqobi could cheat on someone they regarded as “gorgeous, private, and serene.” As @Waylonjunior remarked: “@PhumezaShoba is beautiful, reserved, and calm. Yet somehow, Mnqobi still managed to cheat. Wow, that’s unbelievable.”
Sis Phumeza hasn’t issued a statement yet, but if the reports are accurate, this could lead to one of the most dramatic celebrity divorces of 2025.
