Social Media Reacts
The backlash to the dating rumours was swift on social media, with fans praising Nketsi for addressing the story directly.

In a world where paparazzi snapshots often fuel gossip, Nketsi’s response is a reminder of the importance of context and the right to move freely without constant speculation. For now, it seems she’s content to focus on friendships, family, and catching up with Drake in Europe rather than entertaining unfounded rumours.
