Mbombo took to her Instagram, sharing a series of stories essentially denying what Ndlala stated in the podcast episode with MacG and Sol. Ndlala made claims that they knew each other through campaigns they’ve worked on together and his foundation, which allegedly helped protect the model along with her four-year-old during a dispute she had with her partner that allegedly left her homeless.
The businessman denied the initial allegations made by the model of verbal abuse, harassment, and emotional torment on 2 October 2026, and accused her of falsifying evidence against him.

More allegations and claims
Mbombo then went on to claim that she rejected Ndlala.
“Being rejected is one thing; having your entire identity collapse because you were rejected? That’s a completely different level of embarrassment,” she wrote.
She then shared pictures of alleged gifts from Ndlala, insinuating he bought them for her.
“You can spend money trying to win a woman. Unfortunately, you cannot spend your way into being wanted,” she wrote over the picture of the gifts.
She also shared a picture of documents from a jewellery store responding to the case Ndlala opened accusing her of stealing his Rolex, seemingly claiming it was a gift.
“Imagine confusing rejection with theft, heal!” she said.
Thandi Blue Mbombo has shared a cryptic response due to a court interdict barring her from mentioning Thami Ndlala’s name.
This is after Thami is said to have leaked a case he opened against her, accusing her of stealing a luxury Rolex and selling it.
