Renowned South African media personality Anele Mdoda has officially tied the knot, embracing tradition and love in a vibrant cultural ceremony. The popular radio and TV host married Bonelela “Buzza” James, a Xhosa prince from the AbaThembu tribe and a practicing attorney, in a traditional Xhosa wedding held on April 20, 2025.
The ceremony was a celebration of heritage and elegance, bringing together close family, friends, and cultural customs. Anele was radiant in traditional Xhosa attire, adorned with detailed beadwork and regal accessories, while her groom, Bonelela, looked equally majestic in matching traditional regalia.
The couple has kept their relationship relatively private over the years, only offering subtle hints about their union. In March 2025, Anele playfully confirmed her marital status during a YouTube appearance by saying, “Because I am married,” which sparked speculation that was confirmed weeks later with the grand celebration.
Bonelela James, apart from his royal lineage and legal career, is also a devoted father, with a child from a previous relationship. He is reportedly building a strong relationship with Anele’s son, Alakhe, with sources close to the family noting the bond they’ve formed.
The union marks a new chapter in Anele’s life one that blends love, family, culture, and legacy. Fans and well-wishers have poured in their congratulations, celebrating this milestone in the beloved broadcaster’s life.
