Bonang Matheba is, without a doubt, one of the most talented South African TV presenters and businesswomen. She is also one of the most beautiful faces on TV, and that is why every big name, from singers to rappers, sportspeople, and more, want a piece of her. She has had a long list of men to her beck and call since she first hit the entertainment scene, and so the next question is always about Bonang Matheba’s current boyfriend.
Bonang Matheba’s Boyfriend Is Still Being Rumored
As stated, the name of Bonang Matheba’s boyfriend is not known, but there have been rumors of late that there is someone who seems to be making her happy. In August 2019, after her relationship with AKA went sour, she was said to have started another relationship with Major League DJ Banele Mbere.
Fans started the rumors that something could be going on between them after Bonang made a tweet that she and her baby were having a wonderful life. When asked what she meant by baby, she made it clear that it was her man. Fans did some quick digging and believed it had to be the DJ that Bonang was talking about because they had a few dates, and he replied to her message on Twitter cryptically. Also, they joked about having babies together on social media. Both involved did not confirm or deny the claim, but nothing came from the rumor.
Even before Mbere, the rumor mills were busy with stories that Bonang Matheba’s Boyfriend might just be retired footballer and businessman, Fatmir Hysenbelliu. Again, she was the brain behind the rumor since 2018 when she made a tweet that she was going to live with her man in Albania; that was where Fatmir was. Next, she claimed she had for herself, a rich Arabian man. There were more messages relating to Albania, but what many believed was the final giveaway was during his birthday when she shared some pictures of him on her Instagram story.
Even though she confirmed at the time that she was going out with someone, she refused to reveal who the man was, leaving fans to keep guessing. As stated, Fatmir Hysenbelliu is an Albanian who was born on April 4, 1992. He rose to prominence as a footballer before later delving into business. Hier to wealthy Albanian businessman, Irfan Hysenbelliu, he has not given anything away that would have suggested he had anything to do with the South African businesswoman.

Things went in the wrong direction, and the cracks of the once beautiful relationship came out for the public to see after Bonang accused her then-lover of domestic violence in 2012.
She proceeded to get a permanent protection order against him. However, she later dropped both her charge and protection order, making her fans very angry.

She Is Still Yet To Find A Worthy Man To Father Her Kids
Although she has dated many men in the past, and there are many more who wouldn’t mind dating her, Bonang is still yet to have any kids, which many find amusing considering that many other women in the entertainment circle have kids.
According to her, she did not have any kids because for now, she has still not found any man that is worthy enough to be the father of her kids. Also, she is not in a rush to bring anyone into the world because she wants to have formidable kids who are going to change the world; an Elon Musk or even Trevor Noah. And so, she will keep searching for the right father.
