Itumeleng Khune speaks out – Life isn’t easy

Kaizer Chief legend Itumeleng Khune opens up about the hardship of life. The South African football star has spent years in the game, proving himself time after time. Despite the challenges faced as a goalkeeper, Itu remained focused and unbothered by the noise, especially from social media.


 

 

 

 

In November 2023, he faced suspension and demotion for alleged misconduct. He allegedly arrived for training under the influence of alcohol.

Taking to Instagram, the star shared photos of himself working out and captioned them with thoughtful words. Sometimes I just look up at God and say THANK YOU . Life isn’t easy but I am blessed,” he wrote.

Inside Marise Pollard’s SA baby shower

This, after she posted pictures of her royal blue baby shower on her Instagram account.

Marise and Handre announced news of their first pregnancy after the Boks won their second consecutive Rugby World Cup in November 2023.

The couple live in the UK, where Handre plays club rugby.

A BOY FOR MARISE AND HANDRE?
On her Instagram Stories, Marise Pollard gave her followers a glimpse at her stylish baby shower, which took place over the weekend in the Brookdale Estate in Paarl, Western Cape.

Attended by Springbok WAGS Ingrid Malherbe and Holly Clare Nichol, the picture shower featured a blue and yellow theme colour. And many believe the colours are a hint that the striking couple is expecting a baby boy.

“Great food, amazing people, and a glowing mother-to-be,” Holly posted on her own IG account. The captioned was accompanied by a blue heart emoji.

Taking to IG, Lady Du advised people l to stop buying into the premise that wearing Gucci and Louis Vuitton means that someone is doing well and is successful.

And now she has headed to Facebook to share how she took the staff members of her beauty salon on a lovely vacation.

“I took my staff to Durban for a vacation, I didn’t know that we would heal each other, we spent soooo much time with each other, we forgot we had phones. For the first time in months I totally forgot about the world and experienced a different type of love. I invited my siblings too.

This year I am showing up for people that showed up for me. To actually be able to take my whole staff for a holiday, our salon is only 3 months old!!!! Imagine the things we’d be doing in a year.

To company owners, know what your people go through to help you achieve your dreams. I cried the whole trip, but I’m blessed to have such a strong team. I have a new family. I thank each and every person that supports our salon you are not only changing my life but the lives of the people that work there!!!!! Siyabonga from @wawalabeauty1” she wrote.
