The two are successful performers who have been in the industry for over two decades. Brenda and Edmund’s paths crossed for the first time when the former enrolled at K-CAP as a teenager.

No one is aware of the exact year they got married and how long they dated before marriage. The two were one of Mzansi’s favorite couples for years until 2021, when news broke that the actress had separated from her husband.

The report came as a big shock to the public and highlighted the fact that things can always go wrong between couples, no matter how happy they seem to appear on social media.

The duo’s separation came almost three years after Brenda shared a heart-melting video of Edmund gifting her a brand-new BMW for her 38th birthday. Unverified reports had it that the couple’s marriage had been shaky for a long time due to Brenda’s busy work schedule, which made her move to Johannesburg.

Edmund Allegedly Cheated on Brenda Mhlongo

The crack in the Mhlongos marriage, as gathered, was caused by Edmund’s cheating allegations which went viral in 2021. It is said that the K-CAP founder was seeing another South African woman called Nkosi Mpanza.

The two reportedly met at his academy, and in the mix of things, Nkosi fell pregnant for him after dating on the low for a long time. Edmund is said to have also paid for her lobola secretly.

Actress Brenda has not spoken a word publicly about her estranged husband’s alleged cheating scandal, and the public is not aware of the kind of relationship that exists between Edmund and Nkosi currently.

The latter has supposedly given birth to their baby, and there’s no update on the duo’s relationship.
