The Waves and the Winds Are Back: Cassper Nyovest’s Ex Unleashes a Storm That Could End His Redemption Arc

For over a year, Cassper Nyovest—the platinum-selling South African rapper turned born-again mogul—has positioned himself as a man transformed: sober, spiritual, and finally ready to tell “his truth.” But if his recent media tour was meant to cleanse his public image, it may have just triggered a reckoning far deeper than he imagined.

Because the woman who once shared his life—and nursed their infant son through cancer treatment alone—has broken her silence. And what she brought with her isn’t just pain. It’s evidence.

The Deleted That Wasn’t

“He thought he’d deleted it,” she tells us, sitting stiffly in a Johannesburg café, her voice even but eyes resolute. “But his iCloud had a backup. And one day, I got an alert from my shared family drive.”

What she found there, she says, was a 43-second video. Filmed, unmistakably, in their former bedroom—on bedsheets their son had once napped on between chemotherapy appointments. Cassper, shirtless, visible. A woman whose face is never shown—but whose voice matches Pulane M., the woman he is now rumored to have quietly married in April 2025.

“It wasn’t the sex,” she says. “It was the laugh at the end. Like nothing was wrong. Like our son wasn’t dying in another room.”

The most damning part? A thigh tattoo—Cassper’s signature lion insignia—fully visible at the 28-second mark.

The Other Receipts

The ex, who has chosen to be identified only as Thobeka M. for the purposes of this story, shared more than just the video.

A pharmacy invoice, billed to her name, showing chemo medication pickups on dates Cassper was documented performing in Durban.

WhatsApp messages from Cassper’s assistant, allegedly asking her to “keep things private for the sake of the brand.”

A screen-recorded Instagram DM from Pulane to a friend: “Sis, he’s mine now. She should focus on the sick baby, not the man.”

That message, Thobeka says, arrived two days after their son’s lowest immune crash.

The Public Image vs. The Private Chaos

In recent months, Cassper has been on what fans call his “spiritual rebrand”—speaking openly about his sobriety, reading scripture on IG Live, and crying during interviews with major outlets. But this new leak challenges that image with chilling contradiction.

“If he’s born again, then why is he burying the truth?” Thobeka asks. “He had a PR campaign. I had an oncology ward.”

Damage Control, or Implosion?

At time of publication, Cassper’s reps have not responded to multiple requests for comment. Pulane deleted her Twitter account early Monday morning. Meanwhile, Cassper posted a cryptic IG Story featuring Psalm 109 and a caption: “The enemy surrounds me, but I am not shaken.”

But inside private influencer groups, celebrity WhatsApps, and youth-led Reddit forums, the conversation has shifted from sympathy to suspicion. Some are asking:

Was Cassper’s redemption arc real—or meticulously curated?

Will fans hold him accountable—or just consume the drama like spectacle?

What does forgiveness look like when fame manipulates faith?

The Last Line in Her Voice Memo

The article ends with a voice recording sent by Thobeka to her private Telegram group—and now shared exclusively with us.

“I kept the truth for too long. I let the church, the fans, and his handlers shame me into silence. But now? Now I let the winds speak. And they brought back the waves.”
