Well-known producer and fiancee part ways in fourth failed relationship

Lion King producer Lebo M has produced another failed “romantic” production with his fiancee Malefu “Mel” Ntsala.

Lebo M and Ntsala, who got engaged last year and were expected to get married this year, parted ways in January, allegedly after he started entertaining his ex-wife, Angela Ngani-Casara.

The startling tidbits, which were kept hush hush, burst open into the public domain when rumours swirled that he was now dating a wellknown singer who is known to Sunday World.

Speaking for the ­ first time after the rumours started doing the rounds, Ntsala confirmed that she and Lebo M, real name Lebohang Morake, had broken up and their wedding, which was supposed to have taken place this year, had been called off.

“It’s been ­ five months already, what do you want to know? I’m so over it. We broke up in January, what is this now, it’s June? Yes, It’s six months. I don’t understand why you want to write about me in Lebo’s stories,” she said.

Ntsala said their relationship disintegrated because she and Lebo M grew tired of each other.

“Relationships are relationships guys, they die, sometimes they work out, sometimes they don’t.

“I mean really, there is really nothing I can say. He was a good person, he was a good partner, he was an amazing partner but we had to be where we are today and I’m so… I’m happy for him. “We were both tired of each other. You know relationships, we decided that you know what, this is not good for us. This not for us.”

Lebese – a bright attacking talent when he won league and cup doubles at Amakhosi in 2012-13 and 2014-15 under Stuart Baxter – finds his career in limbo as he seeks a club at age 30 having been released from his contract by Mamelodi Sundowns.

The skillful winger’s career has deteriorated since his move to Sundowns in August 2017.

He played just nine times domestically for the Brazilians‚ and also managed just seven league appearances for SuperSport United, where he spent the last six months of last season in a loan arrangement.

Even before leaving Chiefs‚ though‚ Lebese had gone from 20 league appearances in 2015-16 to 14 in 2016-17‚ raising questions over his work rate.

Although being considered a hugely talented, he often had numerous off-field and disciplinary issues in the past. Most of his troublesome behavior was attributed to drinking alcohol. In the height of his professional football he impregnated the Willowmore High School girl, Twhana Songame – now his wife of two children. He has since said that the cause of his alcohol addiction was his mother’s death.^{[citation needed]} Jabu Mahlangu had the humility to suggest that she leaves him when he hit rock bottom.

“The only challenge is when you leave home, but as soon as you enter your car, you know there are safety precautions that are taken … The environment has changed drastically – in a way, you can’t even realise you’re on the same set.
