There’ve been rumours doing the rounds. For some time people have been asking are they or are they not an item? So, we, just like the rest of Mzansi are really curious to find out whether Maps Maponyane and Nomzamo Mbatha are an item or are just hanging out more than usual because they are promoting an upcoming movie in which they both star – which is what the two claim to be doing.

It is curious however, that they say they are promoting a movie while hanging out in unusual places like the opera, where they were recently spotted. I don’t know about you, but that doesn’t sound like a place to promote anything but a romantic tryst, let’s not forget that the two recently went away together to Rome.

While we await the release of their first movie together titled Tell Me Something Sweet, directed by Akin Omotoso, which is set for release on the 4th of September. We will also be looking out for developments of any romantic leads from the two who claim to be just friends. Judging by their cover on the September issue, of Drum Magazine, Mbatha and Maponyane, would definitely make a cute couple. The recent cover, which is on sale, has created quite a stir, perhaps because of its rather misleading headline, which Mbatha went on social media to clear.

However, we are secretly hoping that they are dating and that they come out and say it already because they really look good together. SL
