His parents got married in 1985 and their marriage produced two children, Maps and his older brother, Katlego. His brother is a snowboarder and was among the seven-year-olds selected in 1992, as part of the South African version of the Up Series.<\/p>\n<p>In 2016, Maps Maponyane confirmed his relationship with Nomzamo Mbatha. Nomzamo is a South African actress who has got an Africa Movie Academy Award for her Best Actress nomination for playing &#8220;Moratiwa&#8221; in Tell Me Sweet Something. Maponyane has said of their relationship; \u201cWe have a super supportive relationship, where we\u2019re both hustling and pushing and setting things up\u201a and we\u2019re literally best friends.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Pregnancy rumors were sparked last year when Mbatha posted a picture of herself in a blue and white floral dress that somehow made her look big.
