Soccer star dumps Pulane?

Orlando Pirates star midfielder Thandani Ntshumayelo has dumped girlfriend Pulane Lenkoe after she allegedly cheated on him with a Johannesburg businessman.

Ntshumayelo and Lenkoe's relationship became public when an undressed image of her was leaked and went viral on social media last month.

Ntshumayelo has apparently left Lenkoe, his 31-year old girlfriend after it was revealed she was cheating on him with  a security company tycoon Victor Sidambe, who last month denied having an intimate relationship but admitted knowing her 'from a distance.'

According to a friend, Lenkoe was "secretively sleeping"  with Sidambe behind Ntshumayelo's back. The two even went on a getaway to Sun City recently.

"This man funds her lifestyle and also assist her in the projects she's involved in. I remember early this year she went to Sun City with her "team" for the weekend and this guy Victor joined her there and funded her trip as part of her birthday gift," added the source.

It seems Ntshumayelo has had enough of Lenkoe's cheating ways. Said the friend: "Thandani and Pulane are no longer together she confirmed but she keeps fooling people that they are still an item because she's embarrassed since he dumped her.

"But Victor is now in the picture I guess he left all his other women including the mother of his kids since he's now discussing lobolo with Pulane. I must say Pulane is in a happy space and for now they prefer to lay low."

At first Lenkoe refused to deny or confirm she is no longer with Ntshumayelo. She then took to Twitter to post a screen grab of a Whatsapp conversation she supposedly had with Ntshumayelo, captioning it; 'So when did he leave me?' She also tweeted: "Ntshumayelo is my man, whoever is trying to break us up must try harder."

 Several calls to the player went unanswered as his team is en route to Johannesburg from their CAF Confederations Cup commitments.
