The couple’s relationship came under intense public scrutiny in August 2026, when a leaked intimate video involving Matshidiso and dancer Limpopo Boy sparked widespread controversy.
The incident prompted Kelvin to address the situation publicly. At the time, he spoke about forgiving his wife but also made it clear that he considered their marriage over.
His comments sparked conversations about whether the couple would eventually reconcile or permanently go their separate ways.
