Social media users were surprised to learn that there is trouble in paradise between one of the country’s favourite couples – former footballer Matthew Booth and his author wife Sonia Booth.
It all began with a series of social media posts in which Sonia alleges that her husband was cheating on her with Bongani Mthombeni-Moller who is said to be married to Klaus Moller.
In the posts, Sonia details different incidents that allegedly occurred between the two and posted additional information that was gathered by herself and a private investigator she had hired.
Sonia also met with Bongani’s husband, who also is said to have had suspicions.
Soon after her posts, the words: cheesecake, Booth and Gucci Guilty topped the trends list online with people discussing Sonia’s claims.
“They spent the night in Polokwane and the following day he dropped her off at her house. I bet it was bliss because @matthewboothza arrived home with an exquisitely wrapped gift box, one of the perfumes being ‘guilty’, a wicked sense of humour bonganimoller has,” she captioned an image of the perfumes.
“@matthewboothza picks up bonganimoller IN MY CAR and they travel to Empangeni, a 7hr drive. They spend 3 nights there…This is supposed to be @the_booth_trust initiative. If she went with him to suss out future collaborations/donations/initiatives for @royal_haskoningdhv then how come she hasn’t been introduced to me considering I am a co-founder, trustee and director of the Trust. Besides, the Trust website has our past initiatives for anyone to peruse over. Moreover, she could’ve 'sussed out' from initiatives scheduled in Jhb,” she explained.
“I would’ve let this one slide too, UNTIL I realised my cake carrier Tupperware was at her house. YOU DON’T MESS WITH A TOWNSHIP GIRL AND HER TUPPERWARE!” she writes.
“I hope she sees this somehow considering she blocked me. She should stick to her filthy rich 70 something yr old alleged sugar daddy because Matthew Booth isn’t as wealthy as he might have portrayed. ‘Peer pressure’ and keeping up with the Motsepe’s has him dipping his fingers into our son’s education funds for yrs now, a meeting I had with our Investment Banker last week shook me. I’ll be damned!” she writes.
“Boy oh boy, the amount of time she spends with her legend begs the question, WHEN DOES SHE ACTUALLY WORK? This question is directed at you @royal_haskoningdhv,” she questions in the caption.
Matthew Booth is yet to comment on the allegations. Bongani Moller posted two Instagram Stories following the allegations where she can be seen working out on a spinning machine and saying the following:
“Morning and happy Tuesday. It’s a beautiful day for a spinning session right? To set the tone for the day, no excuses. Healthy body, healthy heart, healthy mind. No matter the circumstances let’s keep it moving and onto the next.”
Meanwhile, social media users have been flooding the comments section of her and Matthew’s posts and shaming them for allegedly cheating on their spouses.
