Thobeka Majozi, the former partner of South African rapper Cassper Nyovest, has opened up about her son Khotso’s battle with cancer a year after she first revealed the devastating diagnosis. In an emotional social media post marking her 32nd birthday, Majozi reflected on the harrowing journey of watching her son, who was diagnosed with cancer at just eight months old, fight for his life through chemotherapy and surgeries while she lived in an oncology hospital for nearly two years.
The heart-wrenching story took a controversial turn when Majozi revealed that, during the most vulnerable time of their lives, Cassper Nyovest was not only absent but also unfaithful. According to Majozi, she discovered Nyovest was cheating on her while their son was fighting cancer an act she described as deeply painful and humiliating. She said the woman involved in the affair was well aware of her and her child’s condition, yet still flaunted the relationship publicly.
In a rare moment of accountability, Cassper Nyovest later confirmed the allegations in a video posted to social media. “First of all, I would like to confirm that everything my baby mama said about me was true,” he admitted. He explained that his silence about their son's illness stemmed from a mutual agreement to keep the matter private. Nyovest publicly apologized to Majozi, her family, his own family, and fans, calling it one of the darkest times of his life and expressing hope that his mistakes could serve as a lesson for others.
However, Nyovest’s confession did little to quell the public backlash. Social media users harshly criticized him for his apparent detachment during his son’s treatment. Critics pointed to moments when Nyovest was seen flaunting his luxurious lifestyle buying high-end cars and vacationing in Dubai while Majozi was battling alone beside their ailing child. YouTuber Slik Talk even accused him of being a "deadbeat dad," a sentiment echoed by many online.
While Majozi remained quiet about the full extent of the trauma at the time, she has now revealed that the experience brought her closer to God. Isolated and heartbroken, she turned to faith as a source of healing, ultimately finding strength and forgiveness.

The emotional complexity deepened further when, months after these events, Cassper Nyovest went on to marry his new partner, Pulane Mojaki. The couple’s wedding, a lavish private affair, sparked fresh controversy. Many felt the timing was insensitive, given the emotional wounds still raw from Majozi’s revelations. Nyovest’s decision to remarry shortly after acknowledging his past mistakes led some to accuse him of sidestepping accountability and trying to rebrand his public image without properly making amends.
