Orlando Pirates midfielder Thalente Mbatha is making waves in the football world after his transfer from SuperSport.
Since joining the Soweto giants, he has quickly established himself as one of the season’s most exciting talents.
Playing for a prestigious club like Pirates not only gets you noticed but also puts you in the spotlight for success.
Mbatha’s exceptional skills and style of play have even earned him a spot on the national team, where he has started to make his mark.
Spotlight on His Girlfriend
Recently, while Mbatha has been busy on the pitch, his girlfriend has captured attention with a social media post.
The 24-year-old football star has opened his scoring account with Bafana Bafana, but it’s his partner who has been trending after flaunting her BMW on Instagram, a post that has since been deleted.
Despite its removal, the buzz continues online, especially after the popular football blog Mzansi Football confirmed the news.
They shared, “Thalente Mbatha’s girlfriend showcases glimpses of her BMW,” stirring up conversations among fans.
Social Media Reactions
In the now-famous image, Mbatha’s girlfriend posed with her new BMW, which was covered in snow, while revealing that she was in KwaZulu-Natal at the time.
This sparked various reactions on social media.
One concerned fan commented, “He must make sure everything he owns is under his mother’s name, including his salary otherwise.”
Another user defended her, stating, “You gents are commenting just for commenting.
The lady is educated and financially stable, so most comments here are irrelevant.”

Thalente Mbatha has tried to keep his private life under wraps, but his relationship has a way of bringing him into trending topics.
