Although Unathi Nkayi and Thomas Msengana are no longer together, there’s definitely still a great connection between them. 

Unathi has taken to Instagram to share that her ex remains the love of her life. In a recent post, the singer and Idols SA judge wrote a heartfelt message about turning 40. In the same note, she said: “I am the mother of Sinako and Imbo Msengana who too were conceived in love with the man who remains the love of my life.” 

News about the couple’s split became public in 2017 after Unathi confirmed it to eNCA. When asked if they were still together, she said: “No.” She added that they’re in a good place. 

A few months ago, the media personality admitted to City Press that the separation was hard. “He was my best friend. Once you are married it’s not a decision you make overnight, to separate from your partner. It’s always something you’ve considered for years,” Unathi told the publication. 

She added that by the time the media found out about the split, she had already dealt with it.
