Social media influencer Kefilwe Mabote is being accused of faking her marriage last year for content creation. The pictures of the alleged ceremony were posted on her Instagram and her fans were caught by surprise.
Over a year ago, the internet erupted with speculation when social media influencer Kefilwe Mabote shared snapshots of herself amidst a herd of Bonsmara cows, accompanied by a caption hinting at marriage. These images were swiftly followed by glimpses of her ‘lobola’ celebration, where she was adorned in a bespoke cowskin dress crafted by renowned designer Gert-Johan Coetzee and flaunted a sizable diamond ring.
The Truth Emerges: No Marriage Took Place
Contrary to the assumptions and well-wishes from her followers, it has come to light that Kefilwe’s purported marriage was nothing more than a carefully orchestrated facade. Sources close to the influencer reveal that she fabricated the entire scenario to generate content. According to ZiMoja, she was romantically involved with a wealthy businessman who already had two wives. However, investigations suggest that there was never a formal marriage ceremony.

Mabote’s posts are said to have caused havoc between the man she is involved with and his second wife. The second wife is said to have confronted her husband thinking he married Mabote in secret. However, the man in question calmed his wife and told her that there was no marriage.
Content Creation or Deception?
It appears that people think Kefilwe Mabote’s elaborate ruse was motivated by a desire to maintain her social media relevance and attract attention. Known for her extravagant content creation efforts, she went to great lengths to craft a narrative that captivated her audience. Sources intimate that the staged ‘marriage’ served dual purposes: to incite jealousy in her ex-partner, who had reportedly left her for another influencer, and to boost her online presence for financial gain.
