In recent developments, the relationship of football power couple Itumeleng Khune and Sphelele Makhunga seems to be facing challenges. Reports from City Press suggest that Sphelele packed her bags and returned to KwaZulu-Natal in November, apparently fed up with Khune’s alleged infidelity. She took this step to take some time off and contemplate the future of their relationship.

Close friends of Sphelele assert that she is not ready to give up on her marriage, driven by a desire to defy critics and keep her family intact. Despite these claims, when directly questioned about the rumors, the couple vehemently denied any truth to the allegations.
Sphelele addressed the situation on social media, stating, “I have never responded to any of your gossip, and I will not start now. Go ahead and publish your bedtime stories. You have some nerve. Embarrass yourself with lies.” Khune also responded, dismissing the rumors.
