Their relationship began with dates and attendance at industry events together, just like in a movie from the 1980s. Playing dress-up and looking their best on the red carpet, they were like modern-day Romeo and Juliet. Sadly, however, their fairytale romance came to an abrupt end before they could meet their respective families.

Thato Montse of the Housewives of Cape Town and her lover have split up. He told her to stop drinking. The couple met at the Durban July last year, and they quickly became everyone’s favorite serving couple goals. Now, Zimoja can disclose that their brief romance ended in tears. A source claims that Thato’s new man sent her back to the Mother City because he could no longer handle her drinking. On the show, there were already more and more worries about Thato’s drinking, but the winemaker quickly put everyone in their own perspective, dispelling the notion that she is an alcoholic. Sadly, that reputation cost her friends as well as her boyfriend, who has ended their relationship due to her drinking problem.

CHOOSING BETWEEN HER CAREER AND LOVE

Thato claims that her boyfriend wanted her to stop making deals with men. Imagine! “This is the same guy who met me through the show, now for me to quit because I want his ring? My industry is dominated by men,” Thato says, adding that things got worse when her man told her how to dress and told her not to return for season two of the reality show because she was just a loud mouth on TV. I won’t change for anyone else. I suddenly have a loud mouth.

Thato has confirmed that she is currently back in Cape Town to pick up the pieces of her life. Cape Town is an oasis of calm in contrast to the chaotic Jozi. I had to leave that toxic environment immediately. I’m enjoying reevaluating my life in Cape Town. I know the warning signs because I was in an abusive relationship. After telling you what to do next, they beat you up,” she says in her conclusion.
