According to TimesLive, Nandi appeared at the Midrand Magistrate’s Court on 11 June 2026 with Emtee and his family after he had allegedly breached an order that stopped him from harassing Nicole. The incident resulted in the rapper spending a night in jail and was released on R1,000 bail.

Emtee and Nicole are known to have had a tumultuous relationship, with both parties hurling harmful accusations at one another.

Relationship divides fans

While some social media users under Emtee’s post appreciated seeing him thriving in a new relationship and wished the pair well, others wondered whether the couple rushed to announce their romantic link.

@hustle_____jr commented, “More blessings to you guys.”

@makaziwe3ram was sceptical and wrote, “Nah bro, it’s still early for you to call people ‘baby.’ Hustle, you need to heal. Don’t do yourself like that.”

“The king is happy again, remarked @avile_gladile.

While @sarah_kgadi_aphane said to Nandi, “Eish, girl. You need to allow a person to heal first because eish.”
