Khaya Dladla on why his relationship with Mercutio Buthelezi ended

South African media personality Khaya Dladla opened up about why his relationship with ex-fiancé Mercutio Buthelezi ended.

The actor and businessman got engaged in 2020 and have been silent about their breakup since.

Khaya, best known as GC on Uzalo, spoke about the reason in an interview on Engineer Your Life with Lungelo KM. Khaya claimed that there were lots of red flags.

“It was a show and I didn’t realise many of us were acting in that show. There were so many red flags but I wanted to constantly paint them pink because of the idea of a relationship I thought I was in vs what I was really in,” he said.

“I still wonder how many of us were in this relationship, because I now know [there were] so many of us. I even lost count.”

In the interview, Khaya revealed that he was aiming to build a person and character that didn’t already exist. According to Sunday World, the couple started to drift apart, and distance started to play a role. Khaya said he was unaware that several of them were participating in the same relationship, which was like a show.

The star recently celebrated his birthday, celebrating the day he took to Instagram, saying:

“The world is my stage and I have played diligently so far. I hope to display a noble and fierce expression of reign in the years to come. Happy Birthday to my ancestor’s wildest dream. ME”
