SK Khoza allegedly assaulted by his fiance in England

Sthembiso Khoza also known as SK had South Africans in shock yesterday, after going live on his Instagram to share the news that he had been assaulted by his fiancé.

The Kings of Joburg actor who has had many leading roles as a fearless man went live while in a hospital bed where he broke the news.

In a video recording of the live Instagram, SK could be heard saying;

“I’m about to let the world know about what is going on right now. Don’t look at me smiling right now, I’m currently in England and my fiancé almost killed me…”

Adding, “to the women who actually physically abuse men out there, I’m done keeping quiet, I’m out here talking. Choice Kate Mathebula beat me …. I got injuries all over my body right now. I just wish my mama was here.

He also went on to say, “if my mom was here, she’d be dragging that girl she’d be saying don’t take her officers, I’ll handle her.”

“All I can say is that I almost lost my ear tonight, I almost lost my finger tonight, I have basically two broken knees right now, from spachelor to tin opener, to umese (a knife), and now I’m lying in a hospital, in England, WoW.”

On a second video SK is in a paramedics’ car being attended to, the video also contains a voice recording of what seems to be an assault by an unknown female while a voice similar to SK’s can be heard sobbing and responding.

The lady comments, “Leave my kids alone, get out of my house Sthembiso. No one will ever utter words in my house to say they don’t give a fu*k about my daughter, never!!!” To which a sobbing SK responds, “I never said I don’t give a fu*k about your daughter”. The female voice aggressively responds, “you did, I told you to respect her you said you don’t, you said you don’t care.”
