Mihlali Ndamase, a South African YouTuber and beauty influencer, has been at the center of dating rumors after fans speculated that she’s romantically involved with Nigerian footballer Toluwalase Arokodare.
The rumors started when Mihlali posted about Toluwalase on her social media platforms, including a congratulatory message in March that read, “Congratulations, my love”.
Internet users interpreted this as a sign that the two were more than just friends. To add fuel to the fire, Mihlali’s mother is also following Toluwalase on Instagram, which some fans took as a sign of approval.
However, Toluwalase quickly shut down the rumors, taking Instagram to declare that he’s single and asking fans to stop linking him to Mihlali.
“Y’all are killing me with these posts. Imao . I’m single, y’all please stop abeg . These posts about me are false,” he said, seemingly amused by the speculation.
Despite Toluwalase’s denial, some fans remain unconvinced, pointing out that he follows both Mihlali and her mother on Instagram. Others have even suggested that Toluwalase might be behind Mihlali’s recent splurge on luxury items, including two Birkin bags she flaunted on her social media pages.
Some fans are excited about the possibility of a new celebrity couple, while others are skeptical and urge caution.
Some are referencing Mihlali’s past posts about Toluwalase, including the “Congratulations, my love” message, as evidence that they’re more than friends.
Others are defending Toluwalase’s right to clarify his relationship status and ask fans to respect his boundaries.
Ultimately, without a clear confirmation or denial from both parties, the rumors will likely continue to swirl. As fans, it’s essential to respect their boundaries and not jump to conclusions based solely on social media posts.
