Buhle Mkhize affair with Gigaba

Buhle Mkhize writes an open letter to Finance Minister Malusi Gigaba and his wife Norma

Fashion designer and fashionista Buhle Mkhize has revealed that her affair with the now Finance Minister Malusi Gigaba is over. Buhle Mkhize, who studied psychology at a college in London, wrote a letter detailing her allegedly affair with Gigaba.

The letter was published on Just Curious website. Buhle, who is currently residing in the USA, explained how she and the minister met.

“I virtually met Malusi in early July 2014 via Instagram. We’d randomly started following each other on the network, discovered we shared the same sense of humour (and) that led to exchange of banter.

By the end of July he’d started sending me private messages that were very basic at first but quickly graduated to flirting ( Hello / Where are you from / I’d like to get to know you / You are so gorgeous / sexy ).

The messages were flattering but uncomfortable. I am married and had had a relationship with a public figure in the past and hated what comes with it, so this wasn’t the route I wanted to take even if I was single.

The messages went unanswered until about the second week in August. I can’t say for sure why I even responded, I blame the fact that the daily attention from someone can be intoxicating. I was going to sleep and waking up to his messages daily. He was clearly getting ready to get married, a fact he failed to mention to me – not that I can claim any innocence. I revealed being in a relationship and living with someone but I said nothing when he assumed it was just a boyfriend. He did question a certain post at some point where I’d posted a Cartier yellow diamond ring anniversary gift that he thought was more like a wedding anniversary gift and he was right. I dismissed the issue and deleted the picture.

Back to the ‘relations’. The first time I ever heard of him getting married was on his wedding day. I was on a girls’ getaway with my friends in Mexico, so him and I couldn’t actually speak on the phone.

He left a voicemail that I didn’t receive until I returned to the U.S but I received his Instagram message, which I shared with my friends. We then got into stalking mode that day and of course saw the wedding postings now that I was looking ( from other people, he didn’t post until Monday or Tuesday after the wedding).
