    He got it when in 2009, he signed up for a program created by the lifestyle magazine, DEKAT.

    The show was in Afrikaans. After this, he became a co-host on the SABC2 lifestyle magazine program 50/50, followed by the Expresso Breakfast Show on SABC3.

    Away from the glare of the camera, Katlego is a chartered accountant. He studied to be a CA but pursued a career in entertainment instead.

    Katlego Maboe’s Relationships

    Who Is Katlego Maboe’s Girlfriend?

    Monique Muller, Katlego Maboe’s girlfriend since 2016, got married after a one-night stand, as told by Muller.

    Though there are rumours that Monique Muller and Katlego Maboe’s wedding happened secretly, most people believe that they are just live-in partners.

    Although the marriage had its fair share of controversies, they had a happy union together for many years.

    Monique, Katlego Maboe’s wife, bore him a son named Phoenix Katlego Maboe. Until 2020, the trio lived together in Katlego Maboe’s house in Johannesburg.

    Things fell apart when Muller learnt that Maboe cheated on her. She found out when she contracted an STD. Knowing that she had not been with anyone but Katlego, Monique knew her husband was having an affair.

    Things unravelled for Katlego from here. He was suspended from presenting the Expresso Show, allegations of abuse against his spouse surfaced and Maboe lost his deal with OUTsurance.

    He was the face of the brand and got replaced with Elana Afrika after these allegations surfaced. The two have since separated.

    The court has now ruled that Katlego Maboe doesn’t have a case to answer as far as abuse allegations are concerned.

    Furthermore, he is now demanding R4 million for reputation and psychological damage from his ex-wife Monique, her brother, Sabrina Walters who is the founder of Women’s For Change and Janet Van Eeden, Chairperson of the judges for the National Film and Video Foundation.

    When Was Katlego Maboe’s Son Born?

    Katlego Maboe moved to Potchefstroom in North West Province in 1898 after his parents got divorced.

    Though nothing is known about Katlego Maboe’s father, his mother, Beauty Maboe, was a teacher near Lichtenburg.

    Katlego Maboe’s father figure was his late uncle, who took him under his wings after his parents divorced. His single mom and his loving grandparents raised Katlego and his two sisters.

    Katlego Maboe’s Controversy

    His Comeback

    After his run-ins with the law, Katlego Maboe is slowly making his comeback to television. After the show Tropika Island teased fans about its next host, fans quickly reached the conclusion that Katelgo was the new presenter.

    It must be said that the show hasn’t made an official announcement on the matter. Contrary to what you might think, fans were happy about his rumoured return and some vowed to watch the show again.

    What Was Katlego Maboe’s Scandal About?

    Katlego Maboe was arrested in January for being in contempt of court. The arrest is alleged to be related to a harassment case opened by his former partner Monique Muller after he purportedly violated a protection order she had been granted against him.

    Following news of his infidelity, Katlego Maboe’s OUTsurance contract got cancelled. OUTsurance distanced itself from Katlego Maboe by pulling all his advertisements off the air.

    Expresso, too, issued a statement. They confirmed that Katlego would not be on air pending the outcome of the inquiry.

    The scandal brought Katlego Maboe’s family into disrepute. Will we ever find out what happened? Or what drove him to commit such acts? We guess we’ll have to wait for the day that Katlego Maboe spills the tea.

    Katlego Maboe’s House

    We’ve seen Katlego pose in posh studios, hotels and other fancy buildings, none of which sadly includes his house.

    For what it’s worth, Katlego is one of South Africa’s most revered entertainers. His net worth of about $1 million will definitely allow him to live in some of the best houses money can buy.
