Andile Jali is engaged!
He has been on and off the market since his divorce from fitness instructor and businesswoman Nonhle Ndala. Footballer and former Mamelodi Sundowns captain, Andile Jali, is now officially off the market again after proposing to his partner, Somi Ndzibongwana according to Zimoja.


 

A close friend to Andile and a fellow footballer revealed to ZiMoja that he and Somi are officially engaged after dating for over a year. “They met through a friend. Andile was going through another breakup with someone who is not in the limelight. He also had issues with his team and was not at his best ,” the friend said. “He needed someone who understood him and didn’t judge him. Somi takes care of him; she is a homebody and cooks for him. She likes being indoors and has a good time at home.’ Andile proposed to Somi last year, but the two kept it under wraps. “They don’t hide it, but they don’t have to make a big announcement. She wears the ring he bought her, and they live together.’ the friend said, adding that Andile has reached out to her family. “They have made it official with the families. He just needs to finalise the lobola and the wedding.
Andile was previously married to Nonhle, who is the mother of their three children. In 2018, Nonhle accused Andile of domestic violence and opened a case against him. He spent a night at police holding cells but she later dropped the charges. Before the divorce, Nonhle claimed to have “cleaned up’ Andile from nothing to the successful footballer he is today.
According to Zimoja, Andile also has a child with a reality TV personality, Dipuo Maloi, who has a second child with another footballer Lantshene Phalane. He also dated Thembinkosi Lorch’s ex Nokuphiwa Mathithibala. After his separation from Nonhle, Andile dated reality TV star and businesswoman Brinette Seopela. Brinette confirmed the relationship to ZiMoja and said they separated a long time ago and that she had since moved on. A close friend said the two lived together at Brinette’s house. “He was going through a rough patch even then, she was single and they comforted each other but it did not last.’ Andile told ZiMoja that he is “very much off the market’ but doesn’t like discussing his personal life. “I am very much taken. I belong to someone. We don’t want to discuss anything with the media.’
