High-profile actress and DJ Thuli Phongolo has officially reached her breaking point. The star took to social media in a furious, no-holds-barred takedown to defend her integrity after controversial X (Twitter) figure Chris Excel circulated claims linking her to music producer Prince Kaybee and controversial businessman Edwin Sodi.
The situation exploded when Prince Kaybee interacted with the rumor online, prompting Phongolo to completely shut down the narrative, exposing what she calls a “disgusting circus” designed to paint her in a malicious light.
The Timeline: From a Laughing Emoji to a Furious Takedown
The drama kicked off on X after an anonymous post alleged historical romantic ties between Phongolo, Sodi, and Prince Kaybee. Prince Kaybee fueled the fire by quoting the post with a laughing response: “Lol you motherfker.”
Phongolo wasted absolutely no time launching a direct, scathing rebuttal to clear her name once and for all.
Thuli Phongolo’s Direct Response on X:
“Uhm, since when? If you’re going to entertain it, you might as well clear it with the TRUTH. I’ve never slept with you or Edwin for that matter! This whole narrative of trying to paint me as loose is tired, I don’t play with my p***y please!”
“I Can Count the People I’ve Dated on One Hand”
Moving the conversation to her Instagram Stories, the media personality let loose, tapping into her Xhosa roots to deliver a fierce reality check to both the trolls and Prince Kaybee directly. She revealed that despite the massive public assumptions about her personal life, her actual dating history is incredibly exclusive.
THULI PHONGOLO'S INSTAGRAM REBUTTAL
The Reality: Claims she has only met Prince Kaybee ONCE in passing at a gym.
The Circle: States her true dating history can be counted on "ONE HAND."
The Verdict: Accuses men of feeding into toxic narratives because it "serves them."
“Today I woke up VERY Xhosa and petty ke sana!” Phongolo posted on her Instagram Stories. “It’s one thing Chris going off on this narrative, but entertaining it as though it’s true knowing it’s NOT and feeding into this disgusting circus is where I draw the line!
“Contrary to popular belief @princekaybee_sa – I’ve literally only met you once at gym this year even on a HI & BYE basis! You know what you did with that response, it’s intentional… stop it! I take PRIDE in taking care of myself and my integrity is aggravating… Ndidikwe Finish (I am thoroughly fed up)!”
The DJ noted that while she typically ignores internet gossip, allowing false narratives to stick fundamentally damages her personal and professional reality, prompting her to set the record straight before her family could even question her.
