Shauwn Mkhize (MaMkhize’s) 6-year divorce drama ends! After a protracted six-year battle, the reality TV star and businesswoman Shauwn “MaMkhize” Mkhize has officially ended her marriage to businessman Sbu Mpisane.
The dissolution of their marriage, granted by the Durban High Court on 18 November, marks the conclusion of a legal struggle that began in 2018.
The End of a Six-Year Divorce Drama
Mam’Mkhize, renowned for her reality TV show Kwa Mam’Mkhize on Mzansi Magic and Showmax, filed for divorce in October 2018. Since then, the process has been fraught with legal wrangling.
The Durban High Court’s ruling formally dissolved the marriage, though details of the settlement remain confidential due to restrictions under South Africa’s Divorce Act of 1979, which prohibits the publication of sensitive information from divorce proceedings.
Mpisane acknowledged Mam’Mkhize as the initiator of the divorce but refrained from sharing further details. He commented:
“I will not be divulging what the judge decided should happen after a divorce decree was granted.”
Lavish Lifestyle and Property Division
During their 26-year marriage, the couple built a life of opulence, including a luxury mansion in La Lucia, Durban. Amid their separation and legal proceedings, the property was divided into two sections: the northern side, where Mam’Mkhize resides, and the southern part, occupied by Mpisane.
With the divorce finalized, it remains unclear whether the current arrangement will change.
Throughout the legal battle, Mam’Mkhize reverted to her maiden name and continued to focus on her flourishing business empire and public persona.
Royal Eagles and Royal AM: A Tale of Two Teams
In happier times, the couple co-founded the PSL soccer team Royal Eagles in 2014. However, their separation led to a division of ownership.
Mpisane retained the Royal Eagles name, while Mam’Mkhize purchased Real Kings in 2019, rebranding it as Royal AM. Under her leadership, Royal AM has achieved significant success, including purchasing Bloemfontein Celtic’s PSL license in 2021, cementing the team’s position in South African football.
Their 23-year-old son, Andile Mpisane, serves as Royal AM’s chairman and player, further intertwining the family’s legacy with the sport.
Wealth and Business Ventures
The Mpisane-Mkhize partnership was not just about football. The couple inherited the Zikhulise Group Holdings from Mam’Mkhize’s mother, ANC veteran Florence Mkhize, and amassed significant wealth through lucrative business ventures.
Their enterprises spanned various industries, including construction, security, automotive, and cleaning services. The couple was particularly known for constructing RDP houses in KwaZulu-Natal, a venture that brought them considerable financial success and public attention.
A Complicated Journey
The separation was not without its challenges. In 2023, Mpisane’s side of the shared La Lucia mansion was the site of a break-in, where three suspects allegedly gained entry but fled after being discovered. This incident underscored the complexity of their ongoing living arrangements during the divorce.
Reports also suggested that Mpisane sought 50% of the multimillion-rand estate, highlighting the high-stakes nature of their financial dispute.
A New Beginning
For Mam’Mkhize, the conclusion of her marriage represents a fresh start. Known for her resilience and entrepreneurial spirit, she has emerged as a prominent public figure, balancing her reality TV career with her business and football interests.
The finalization of her divorce may open new opportunities for her to focus on her passions and build on her successes.
As Mam’Mkhize closes the chapter on her marriage, she remains an emblem of strength and reinvention, ready to forge ahead in her personal and professional life.
