Pinky Girl, who was formally introduced to us as a cast member for Bonang Matheba’s reality show Being Bonang. Is the cousin of media personality Bonang Matheba who today seems to be beefing with.
During her time on the show, Pinky Girl went from being an influencer to DJ, with Bonang’s support. Like she would always say that she would always look out for Pinky Girl, and for the most part she did.
This includes Matheba supporting her cousin through the career changes and transitions in her life.
It was an ideal family relation until the two took to the blue app and had something to say about each other, without mentioning names. But we can read between the lines.

Pinky Girl returned as a cast member during Matheba’s two-part SABC 1 special A Very Bonang Year.
Throughout this time, the two seemed close as Pinky Girl would sing her cousin’s praises on social media. However, after Bonang made a joke which referred to Pinky’s time on Being Bonang, it seems that a rift was created.
Since then, it looks like things weren’t good as we know them to be and now Pinky Girl has seemingly responded to a series of shady subtweets from Matheba.
Fuelling what fans believe is a family feud.
According to tweeps, the reality TV star whose real name is Tebogo Mekgwe, reacted to a rant by her relative, who called out a member of her inner circle.
BONANG GOES ON A RANT – BUT WHO IS SHE TALKING ABOUT?
Taking to her Twitter account on Monday, January 23, Bonang revealed that she was looking to hire a new PA. She also disclosed that the potential candidate needed to be fully vaccinated.
But in doing so, tweeps claimed the star fired indirect shots at Pinky Girl instead.
….I need to find a new PA with a visa to join the team. Wtf is happening kante? 😭💔

When one tweep reminded her that she already has a PA, Bonang replied: “…she has a visa but isn’t vaccinated!”.
…she has a visa, but isn’t vaccinated!! 😭😭😭😭💔💔💔😂😂😂😂 I’m tayad!

Tweeps noted how Pinky Girl had been her cousin’s PA, but left the position in 2018. Speaking to Move Magazine, she said:
“I quit when my colleagues realised I was related to Bonang. Some started acting awkward. My female colleagues gave me a hard time. Some even called me Bonang’s handbag because I was always with her, and they said all I do is hang around her.”
Pinky Girl has since pursued a career as a TV presenter and DJ in the entertainment industry.
However, Pinky Girl did not leave the comments her cousin made laying down, she also shared her own cryptic tweets. After being called out by Bonang Matheba’s fans.
Without naming her cousin, she tweeted:
I’ve been So quite for so long…I’m Tayad too.

Following this tweets, it was enough for us to believe that the two are beefing. But the question is, what really happened?
