Mihlali Ndamase and Leeroy Sidambe’s toxic relationship, breakup, and shocking allegations

Mihlali Ndamase and Leeroy Sidambe’s relationship, which once dominated headlines, has now become a symbol of toxicity, with allegations of abuse, infidelity, and manipulation. Since the couple went public in 2022, their relationship has been marred by drama and public scrutiny.

What initially appeared to be a whirlwind romance has recently spiraled into a messy breakup, with accusations of physical abuse, substance abuse and controversial claims about Leeroy’s sexuality.

When Mihlali, a prominent South African influencer and businesswoman, started dating Leeroy Sidambe, the public backlash was intense. Leeroy was still married to his wife, Mary-Jane Sidambe, at the time, leading many to accuse Mihlali of being a “homewrecker.” Both Mihlali and Leeroy defended their relationship, with Leeroy stating that he was separated from his wife. However, the narrative remained controversial, and the couple continued to face criticism.

Despite the negativity, the two appeared happy and frequently shared glimpses of their life together. They were spotted at public events and enjoyed a life in the limelight. However, behind the scenes, their relationship was crumbling under the weight of growing tensions.

One of the most recent aspects of the breakup was the revelation that their relationship had allegedly involved physical abuse. Mihlali is said to have accused Leeroy of being physically abusive during their time together. These allegations of physical abuse came as a shock to many, given the couple’s public persona.

Following their split, things have taken a sharp turn for the worse. Mihlali has began posting cryptic messages on her social media, subtly shading Leeroy and hinting at personal secrets. These posts included the use of terms like “after 9” and “double adapter,” which are South African slang words often used to describe a man who is gay or bisexual but keeps this hidden from the public.

“After 9” refers to someone who presents as straight but engages in same-sex relationships privately, while “double adapter” alludes to someone who is bisexual. These comments led to widespread speculation that Leeroy might have been hiding his true sexuality during their relationship.

While Mihlali has not confirmed these allegations directly, the insinuations in her posts caused a frenzy on social media. Many questioned whether these comments were simply a bitter reaction to the breakup or if they reflected hidden truths about Leeroy’s private life. Either way, they added fuel to the fire of an already tumultuous situation.
