Kelly Khumalo and Arthur Mafokate are teasing a new romance, and many fans are concerned for the latter.
The singer and the music mogul posted a steamy pic together on Valentine’s Day. They have not disclosed the nature of their relationship.
On 14 February – Valentine’s Day – Kelly Khumalo posted a picture of her looking lovingly into the eyes of Arthur Mafokate. The music industry colleagues go way back.
On his own Instagram account, Arthur posted his own picture of him embracing the mother of three. He added two heart emojis in the caption of the post.
But Arthur’s followers were less than excited for the 999 Music record label owner. Some warned him about pursuing any kind of relationship with Kelly, who is known for her high-profile romances and break-ups.
Many of the comments were morbid and included the acronym: “RIP” [Rest in Peace], hinting at Kelly Khumalo’s past.
@nchachiditopa: “He was a great producer and singer #RIP.”
@mams_john:“My heart goes out to the Mafokate family for the loss of their son, Arthur. I know how much he meant to you. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.”
@modikoakganyago: “Don’t say we didn’t warn you.”
@moabelo_l17:“We will miss you”
ANOTHER PR STUNT FOR KELLY KHUMALO?
While some believe a romance is brewing, others are convinced that Kelly Khumalo and Arthur Mafokate are simply teasing a duet.
In 2018, Kelly and rapper Chad da Don posted pics of their romance, which was originally a teaser for her music video, Dance Comigo. The “couple” reportedly dated on and off for a year before splitting.
It wouldn’t be the first time Kelly and Arthur have collaborated musically. In 2014, the musicians released the love song Nguye Lo.
And like they’ve done this time, the duo teased rumours of a romance after they got “married” in a music video for the single.
