Gospel singer Takie Ndou rubbished rumours that he and his wife Takalani Chairo have separated.

He admitted they were going through marital problems, but said they were trying to solve them through their families and pastors.

“If I tell what you what’s happening, I’ll be revealing family matters which I don’t think is proper. But, nothing is final as yet, obviously like any other marriage you go through problems,” he said.

Takie said at the moment, he couldn’t confirm whether they were separated or not. “It’s not finalised yet. I can’t say we’re separated and then you see us together the next day. The matter being taken to social media has put pressure on us and our families. We’re attending to it and trying to resolve it with urgency,” said Takie.

“Once the matter has been resolved, I will go public and let people know if we’ve separated or not.” He said the accusations of cheating against him were nothing but rumours. “People are speculating and they don’t have evidence to prove their claims. There are other problems people face in marriage.”

Takalani, however, said: “Yes, we’ve been separated for a year,” but refused to comment further.
