Appearing to be one of the “it” couples in Mzansi back when they were dating, turns out behind the scenes Thando Thabethe and her ex Lunga Shabalala’s relationship was nothing short of a mess.

Thando Thabethe has now filed for an urgent protection order against the actor, who she accuses of “following” and “harassing” her.

According to the 947 presenter also claims that Shabalala has even broken into her home and threatened to compromise her work opportunities. She says during the relationship, her ex was even obsessive.

A court document seen by City Press reveals that she fears that Lunga Shabalala will continue to harass her. Writing on the document, Thando said: “The urgency of obtaining this order today is that he was threatening to prohibit one of my TV shows from airing. I have received correspondence from his attorneys.”

“I fear for my safety as I do not know how he will react once the show is aired. He is constantly stalking and harassing me, and I don’t want the situation to escalate”. – she continued.

Already served to the offender, the order is meant to offer against the complainant. However, should the offender contravenes the stipulation of the order, they risk being arrested.

The interim order obtained by Thando Thabethe is a temporary measure and it provides immediate relief to the complainant until a court hearing is scheduled to make it final.

The break up took place last year.
