Former Kaya FM presenter Dineo Ranaka is happily in love and has shows led her fans a glimpse of her new man.

DINEO RANAKA IS HEAD OVER HEELS IN LOVE
The Sex and Suff podcast host on MacG’s YouTube channel recently took to her Instagram to show off her boyfriend.

 

 

 

 

Dineo posted a video of herself and her man travelling together, but was careful not to reveal his face.

“With ease. At ease. For peace,” she captioned the video.

When one fan commented that the reality TV star does not give up on love, she replied: “I may go through a season of being upset by it or mad at it … but I will not commit to giving up on it.”

She also told another fan she does not think that love always finding her is due to luck.

“I honestly don’t think it’s luck. When we live our truth, we will always attract the goodness that comes with that level of authenticity.

“I see it as more of a blessing. I don’t make people’s wrong doings against me a ‘me problem’ … I will always work on myself while I’m in waiting for a better more peaceful love. I wish this for all of us,” she wrote.
She revealed that everything was rosy between them until he paid lobolo.

“I picked out this attitude, and I was like where is my best friend? I was being called a whore, being pushed down the stairs.”

Phasha had previously been in a thirteen-year-long marriage, she said.

“I said to him, you put your first wife through thirteen years of misery, and you think I am going to sit and try to measure up to that timeline?

“When I sit in interviews and speak about boundaries that I set in my life, that thing is not a joke. If you violate my boundaries, it means that you think so little of me.”

Dineo and Pasha have a baby together. She also has two other children from her previous relationships, one of them with rapper Blaklez.

Today, we were informed about a lot that happened and this gave the public the chance to analyse the recent developments in the case. We are aware that there is progress that is being made and there is definitely a lot that calls for some reaction.

The matter that is of concern at this point has to do with Nandipha, it was revealed in court by her lawyer that she is not being treated fairly. Her lawyer argued that the manner in which Nandipha was brought to court was inhuman.

Now, there needed to be some videos for the sake of reference, but this was an issue for Nandipha and she made sure that she got her lawyer to bring it up.

 

 

 

 

 

People could not understand what the issue was because she was being treated as an accused person. One would say that she is being treated exactly how an accused should be treated, but you might have noticed that this case in different in many aspects.

We have observed that Nandipha is able to raise an issue without any hesitancy, she has a lawyer who is able to exercise the rights she has whenever it is necessary to do so.

The court has no choice, but to take into consideration everything she brings forward. Some people might consider this as some sort of tactic, but this can also be an honest concern, if there was any unfair treatment, then it should be addressed.

To put this into detail, Nandipha is complaining about being handcuffed in the police van and we are yet to know if this is even allowed to be a complaint that is worth being taken into consideration.

There are obviously going to be more discussions regarding complaints brought in court, her boyfriend also had complaints of his own. We can also expect that this will be a topic for the next couple of hours, there are already people who are criticising her.

Some people mentioned that she is becoming too forward and thinks that she can have things her way. And this is how it might sometimes seem, but as it has mentioned, she has to be vocal about things that she is not comfortable with.

It should not matter that she is an accused, but this obviously does not stop people from sharing
