Dr Malinga has certainly made this Valentine’s Day extra special for his wife, gifting her a luxury car to mark their anniversary. The musician shared that there was no one more deserving of such a gesture than the mother of his children. Expressing his love and appreciation, he said, “It’s our anniversary on Valentine’s Day, so I wanted to do something special for her.
This heartwarming gift comes two years after Dr Malinga faced a major financial crisis. The popular artist publicly revealed that he was battling severe debt, owing over R500,000 in unpaid taxes to the South African Revenue Services (SARS). At one point, he lost his cars and furniture and found himself living in an unfurnished home, facing the threat of repossession.
During this challenging time, Dr Malinga received support from various celebrities and fans, including Makhadzi, Oskido, Black Coffee, and even the EFF, who helped him pay off part of his debt. Reflecting on the experience, Dr Malinga expressed deep gratitude, saying, “I cried because I needed help. I sacrificed my celebrity status; I didn’t care about being judged. I am not buying face.”
Today, Dr Malinga is on the road to recovery, rebuilding his life and career. His heartfelt Valentine’s Day gesture is a testament to how far he has come, with his fans and loved ones celebrating his resilience and generosity.
