Social media suspects Thuli Phongolo to be pregnant

Thulisile Phongolo also known as Thuli P shared a post on her Instagram page after she deleted all of her posts following assault allegations levelled against her rumoured boyfriend, DJ Maphorisa. The pair has since released a joint statement, stating that they were dealing with matters privately with the help of their lawyers.

The Soweto-born actress had only shared Instagram stories after their joint statement where she hinted that she was working on releasing a song soon.

Her recent post was meant to encourage her followers on self-reliance and knowing that the only person who can save you from any situation is yourself. Instead, social media users began to suspect that the former Generations actress might be pregnant.

Thuli shared a photo with her 3.6 million followers and captioned it:

“Somebody’s gonna save you one day… and that person happens to be yourself ?.”
