'Ms Dlamini and I had a beautiful relationship' — Dr Brian
In a statement released on Monday, Dr Brian said he felt compelled to set the record straight.
'It is not in my nature to entertain rumours; however, this specific rumour is malicious and has the potential to taint Ms Dlamini's reputation in circumstances where the rumours are devoid of any truth,' he said.
He said that their breakup was due to personal reasons, not cheating.
'Ms Dlamini and I had a beautiful relationship, which sadly came to an end purely for personal reasons. It had nothing to do with infidelity by either party,' he added.
Meanwhile, Minnie has not commented publicly on the breakup. The pair have since removed photos of each other from their Instagram pages.
