Nolwazi is even okay to talk about it,” the friend said.Since their separation last year, which they have both kept private, Nolwazi has removed her wedding ring and changed her surname on social media platforms from Ngubeni to her maiden name, Shange.In December 2023, Nolwazi shared a cryptic message on her social media implying about starting the year 2024 on a clean slate. “I began the year by making one of the most difficult decisions of my life. Today, on the last day of 2023, I am equally proud and grateful. 2023 was a reassuring hug from the heavens. God has indeed been kind. Cheers to 2024 and the fulfillment of God’s promise.” she wrote.

Nolwazi informed ZiMoja that Mzwandile and him were nearing the end of their divorce, despite Mzwandile’s refusal to admit their split. “Sad as it may seem, we have parted ways. We are nearing the end of the divorce process,” she said. Nolwazi continued, saying:
“We have been together for 13 years with children and we came to the decision together to separate amicably. I mean this is a person I once loved and cared deeply for. I would never want to go into detail about what happened and paint him in a bad light. I always want him to be great and do well and hopefully one day, he finds love again and for me to move on,” she added.

Nolwazi stated that she has never wanted to discuss her private life or reveal specifics about their marriage since the beginning.

“But I understand that both of us are in the limelight and talking about it is part of the healing journey.I will always put my family first, my children, him, and protect what is close to me. With the divorce almost final, I am rebuilding. I have had time to cry.I have not completely healed but I am getting there. I am in a good place. I have support from family. My job now is never to shame him but to always protect his reputation and what is mine.”
