‘A new chapter': Lebo M rekindles romance with Mel Ntsala and proposes once again
Internationally acclaimed producer Lebo M and Mel Ntsala have gotten engaged again after they called it quits in 2019.
After sparking rumours about their romance in May 2024, the couple went public with their rekindled romance with snaps aboard a dreamy yacht in Dubai.
Previously married four times and engaged eight, the producer and composer also declared his unwavering belief in love and new beginnings.
After publicly declaring that he would not tie the knot again after his most recent failed marriage to Pretty Samuels, renowned composer and producer Lebohang 'Lebo M' Morake has again asked for Mel Ntsala's hand in marriage.
The couple shared the news on Sunday with loved-up snaps of them on a luxurious yacht in Dubai, with Morake declaring, 'The day we stop believing in love and possibilities is the day we stop dreaming.'
'Absolutely grateful to have fulfilled my dream and begin a new chapter with you.'
He continued to declare his undying love for the Free State beauty, saying, 'Love always.'

This marks the pair's second attempt at tying the knot after they got engaged in 2019 but called it quits because Morake was allegedly entertaining another ex, Angela Casara.
Rumours of a romantic rekindling surfaced in May 2024 when Morake posted – and later deleted – a cosy photo with a female passenger on a private jet. At the time, his manager and nephew, Tshepo Mboni, downplayed the speculation, telling News24 that 'he has no romantic relations with anyone, especially Mel Ntsala.'
However, a 'trusted' source told online publication Zimoja otherwise. The source told the publication that the woman in his life was someone he had dated previously.
'The woman could not take it and broke it off, but there has never been bad blood between them. The woman just wanted him to get over his ex,' the source said.
Months later, the pair fuelled the flames when they were spotted on vacation together in Mauritius as part of his 60th birthday celebrations.

Speaking to Sunday World months after their engagement and wedding were called off, Ntsala attributed their split to them getting tired of each other.
'We were both tired of each other. You know, relationships. We decided that, you know what, this is not good for us. This [is] not for us,' she said.
Morake, no stranger to the ups and downs of love, has been married four times and engaged a total of eight – a number that continues to make headlines. His tumultuous fallout with ex-wife Pretty Samuels ended in public accusations and mudslinging.

UN Security Council to vote on Gaza ceasefire resolution amid humanitarian crisis
UNITED NATIONS — The U.N. Security Council scheduled a vote Wednesday on a resolution which demands 'an immediate, unconditional and permanent ceasefire in Gaza respected by all parties.' U.N. diplomats said the United States is likely to veto it. The resolution, drafted by the council's 10 elected members who serve two-year terms, reiterates its demand for the release of all hostages held by Hamas and other groups following their Oct. 7, 2023 surprise attack in southern Israel.

UN Security Council to vote on Gaza ceasefire resolution amid humanitarian crisis
UNITED NATIONS (AP) — The U.N. Security Council scheduled a vote Wednesday on a resolution which demands 'an immediate, unconditional and permanent ceasefire in Gaza respected by all parties.' U.N. diplomats said the United States is likely to veto it. The resolution, drafted by the council's 10 elected members who serve two-year terms, reiterates its demand for the release of all hostages held by Hamas and other groups following their Oct. 7, 2023 surprise attack in southern Israel. Calling the humanitarian situation in Gaza 'catastrophic,' the proposed resolution also demands 'the immediate and unconditional lifting of all restrictions on the entry of humanitarian aid into Gaza and its safe and unhindered distribution at scale, including by the U.N. and humanitarian partners.' The vote, scheduled for late Wednesday afternoon, comes amid near-daily shootings following the establishment by an Israeli and U.S.-backed foundation of aid distribution points inside Israeli military zones, a system it says is designed to circumvent Hamas. The United Nations has rejected the new system, saying it doesn't address Gaza's mounting hunger crisis, allows Israel to use aid as a weapon, and doesn't comply with the humanitarian principles of neutrality, impartiality and independence. The draft resolution demands the restoration of all essential humanitarian services in line with those principles, international humanitarian law and U.N. Security Council resolutions. Several U.N. diplomats from different countries, speaking on condition of anonymity Tuesday because discussions have been private, said they expect the United States to veto the resolution. The U.S. Mission to the United Nations said it had no comment on the draft resolution at this time. Israel's U.N. Mission did not respond to a request for comment on the draft. Gaza's roughly 2 million people are almost completely reliant on international aid because Israel's offensive has destroyed nearly all of Gaza's food production capabilities. Israel imposed a blockade on supplies into Gaza on March 2, and limited aid began to enter again late last month after pressure from allies and warnings of famine. U.N. spokesman Stephane Dujarric said Tuesday that the needs in Gaza are enormous and what's getting into Gaza from the U.N. 'is still just a trickle.' Since the complete blockade was partly lifted, he said, just over 620 truckloads have made it from Israel to the Palestinian side of the Kerem Shalom crossing, and only about 370 truckloads – mainly with flour, food and medical and nutrition items __ have gotten closer to people in need, with some looted including by armed gangs. 'The unimpeded entry of humanitarian assistance at scale must be restored immediately,' Dujarric said. 'The U.N. must be allowed to work in safety and in security under conditions of full respect for humanitarian principles.' Since Oct. 7, 2023, the Security Council has voted on 14 Gaza-related resolutions and approved four. The last resolution was also proposed by the 10 elected council members and also demanded 'an immediate, unconditional and permanent cease-fire to be respected by all parties.' Fourteen of the 15 council members voted in favor last Nov. 20, but the U.S. vetoed the resolution because it was not linked to the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages. Hamas-led militants killed around 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and took 251 people hostage in the Oct. 7, 2023, attack into southern Israel that ignited the war. They are still holding 58 hostages, a third of them believed to be alive, after most of the rest were released in ceasefire agreements or other deals. Israel's military campaign has killed more than 54,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children, according to Gaza's Health Ministry, which doesn't say how many of the dead were civilians or combatants. The ministry is led by medical professionals but reports to the Hamas-run government. Its toll is seen as generally reliable by U.N. agencies and independent experts, though Israel has challenged its numbers. ___

Iran-U.S. Nuclear Talks: What's at Stake?
After weeks of tense negotiations aimed at preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon, the Trump administration has offered a concession that may open a path to a compromise. Over the weekend, the United States proposed the outline of a deal that would seem to allow Iran to temporarily continue enriching uranium. That has been a sticking point in the talks, which have been at an impasse. President Trump has consistently berated Iran's leadership, and the countries have been at odds for many decades. But shifts in geopolitics and Mr. Trump's wish to secure a legacy-making deal have sent his aides back to the negotiating table. Failed talks could lead to a destructive regional war. Under the proposal, which Iranian and European officials described on the condition of anonymity, Iran could produce enriched uranium temporarily while the United States facilitates building nuclear power plants for Iran. A consortium of countries in the region would manage uranium enrichment facilities to provide nuclear fuel for the plants. Iran would then have to stop all enrichment within its borders once it begins receiving any benefits from those facilities. Here is what you need to know. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
