The relationship has drawn public attention, largely linked to DJ Speedsta’s previous relationship with influencer Lungile Thabethe, with whom he shares a child.

As rumours linking Mosaka and Speedsta emerged, some social media users accused Mosaka of being involved with the DJ before his previous relationship ended. She has consistently rejected those claims in an interview with News24.

“I’ve never stolen anyone’s man in my entire life. If I’m ever with someone, best believe I found them single,” she said.

With the confirmation of the romance, fans will shift attention from guessing about their relationship status to their public presence.

Charlize Theron spoke about an experience from her childhood, and how it affected her. In a recent interview, the actress recalled the night her mother acted in self-defence against her father at age 15.

Growing up in South Africa, Theron described their home as unstable due to her father’s  alcohol addiction. She explained that his behaviour created a fearful home.

According to Theron, her father returned home intoxicated. Fearing for their safety, she and her mother pressed themselves against the door to stop him from forcing his way inside.

“He shot through the steel doors to get in, making it very clear that he was going to kill us,” Charlize recalled. “His brother was with him as well. We knew it was serious, and so by the time he broke into the first gate, my mom ran to the safe to get her gun. She came into my bedroom. The two of us were holding the door with our bodies because there wasn’t a lock on it.”

The confrontation ended when her mother intervened to stop him, an act later ruled by authorities as self-defence. Theron said her mother’s actions saved her life that day.
