During a casual conversation with Pirates midfielder Relebohile Mofokeng, Mbatha shared her long-time support for the club, much to the excitement of both football and entertainment fans.
The moment was captured in a video shared by controversial blogger Musa Khawula on his Twitter (X) page, quickly gaining traction online. In the clip, Nomzamo, known for her charismatic personality and philanthropic efforts, can be seen chatting with Mofokeng, during which she proudly declares herself a die-hard supporter of the Buccaneers.
Her confession has sparked a wave of reactions from South Africans, as fans of the Orlando Pirates were thrilled to learn that the actress shares their passion for the team.

The actress’s support for Orlando Pirates adds to her already impressive public persona, showing that she, too, enjoys the excitement and camaraderie that come with being part of the football-loving nation. As a figure admired by many, Nomzamo’s endorsement of the Pirates has no doubt further solidified the club’s widespread influence among South Africa’s diverse fan base.
