Kefilwe Mabote may have been involved with many men in her life and even gotten married to more than one, yet, she manages to keep their identities a secret. Recently, the social media strategist has hinted at another marriage making it a third for the South African celebrity. Though her new husband is one of the reasons that is causing a buzz about her love life, she is known to have had high-profile relationships with men like Edwin Sodi.
While the 35-year-old may be successful at what she does, her love life including three marriages has added to the curiosity about the gorgeous woman.

As captured, Kefilwe Mabote who was born in Moletsene, Soweto on April 10, 1989, is not a stranger to multiple marriages. Her recent marriage is to a man that she has not revealed his identity. In an Instagram image she captioned with the date January 3, 2023, she wrote ‘This is definitely the beginning of a chapter called “Us”. In the said picture, she is seen in front of cows which symbolizes the payment of her bride price or what South Africans refer to as the Lobola.
The lobola which is paid using cows is a mark of regard for a marital union. In fact, the higher the number of cows, the more respect the bride has gotten from her inlaws.
Notably, she wore a custom-made cowskin dress by Gert-Johan Coetzee, one of South Africa’s prominent designers. Despite appearing alongside members of her family, she did not show who the groom is nor did she give any indication.
This recent marriage was not surprising to many who congratulated her for protecting her man’s privacy. Howbeit married to a man she does not want to reveal his identity, many are suspicious that she may just be doing this just for content as she is prone to.
As it is a self-proclaimed tea master, Musa Khawula alleges that her new man is a businessman known as Sandile Phakathi who is a married man. He even proceeded to upload an image. It turns out that he used the image of the former Head of Office of MEC for Education. Such a claim came with repercussions as the mistaken man threatened to sue Khawula for defamation.
Regardless of all this, Kefilwe’s closest friends have accepted the change in her marital status and since sent in their congratulatory messages as well.
Mabote Has Been Married and Divorced Twice
As captured, this is not Mabote’s first marriage. Though she is just 35 years old, she has hinted at two previous marriages but managed to keep her ex-husband’s identities a secret.
Apparently, her previous marriages happened at a younger age. One would be curious to know why the influencer always keeps her ‘men’s’ identity away from social media, her area of influence.
This may not be known but it is assumed that she chooses what she wants her fans and followers to know. Reportedly, she is the mother of two children from those marriages. However, it is not clear whether her two children share the same father or not.

As one of South Africa’s biggest celebrities, her social media updates showcase a lifestyle that many can only dream of. This includes the romantic life she managed to let people have a glimpse of. So far, she has been connected to two publicized relationships.
Kefilwe’s Involvement with Edwin Sodi was Exposed During the Free State Asbestos Scandal
Her high-profile romance with the businessman is one of her most publicized relationships ever. In 2020, Edwin Sodi who is the owner of Blackhead Consulting was involved in a multi-million rand asbestos audit contract. The contract which was advanced by the Free State department of human settlement in 2014 ended up with inconsistencies.
In the course of the investigation, Sodi was arrested for alleged embezzlement of about R255 million leading to the confiscation of some of his properties worth over R300. What many did not know was that it will expose many people including a secret relationship between the businessman and the social media star.
Reportedly, the investigation led to the confiscation of her car, yet, Kefilwe still maintained her innocence. This caused a harsh reaction from people who felt she was only after him because of his wealth. To give credence to this, she soon quit the relationship and claimed she had her money long before they became an item.
Though the matter reached the court and led to Sodi’s arraignment, Kefilwe had already left the scene and was already looking up to a new boo.
Her Relationship with Mr. H
Considering how her relationship with Sodi ended, it was quite surprising when she gave hints of dating another man in 2021. Though she tried to keep it private, a picture of her hugging a man led to curiosity about his identity.
She posted a video of her opening a channel neck jewelry. Kefilwe thanked ‘Mr. H’ for not failing to surprise her. This led to the speculation that he is an Italian man and the man in her life at the time. As it is, it is unclear what happened to this relationship.
