South African businesswoman and former reality TV star Shauwn 'MaMkhize' Mkhize is focusing on the positives in her life and spending time with those closest to her.
Last week, news broke that MaMkhize's flashy car collection will be going up for auction, as part of an ongoing legal battle with the South African Revenue Service.
The stylish media personality has been out of the spotlight most of 2025 due to her legal woes with the taxman, but is slowly returning to actively posting on Instagram.
Living positively, Mkhize shared moments from her stay at the Shekinah Lion Game Lodge, where one can stay in luxurious predator suites that place you close to majestic lions and tigers.
'There's a lion in every woman who refuses to give up. We rise together🦁✨ Keep shining, your win is unfolding,' she captioned her post.
Mamkhize shared a video of her at the Pfamoni Sahara Suite within the Shekinah Lion & Game Lodge.
A stay with the dangerous predators costs R12,500 per couple per night for Monday to Thursday, and R15,000 per couple per night for Friday to Sunday, according to their Instagram account.

The relaxation hasn't stopped with fancy vacation time, but Mamkhize has also been spending time with actors and movie producer Tarina Patel and Zodwa Mkandla, a prominent Zimbabwean businesswoman and philanthropist.
The 'Kwa Mam'Mkhize' star and her girlfriends treated themselves to a luxury spa, which was done in the comfort of her home.
Sharing moments from the girls' home spa day, all three ladies were dressed in Versace gowns, which retail from R10 900 up to R24 200, according to the Versace website.
Earlier this month, she made an appearance courtside at the 2025 Basketball Africa League (BAL) dressed warmly in a huge fur coat.

Hungani and Stephanie Ndlovu confirm end of their marriage
After months of speculation, Hungani and Stephanie Ndlovu have officially confirmed their separation. Over the weekend, the pair released a joint statement announcing their decision to end their marriage. Hungani and Stephanie, who tied the knot in an intimate garden ceremony on February 23, 2019, had been married for five years. In June 2022, the couple became parents to their first child, Rhulani, who just turned three. Addressing a recent news article that revealed details about their split, they took to Instagram to share their side of the story. In a heartfelt statement, they emphasised their commitment to co-parenting. They shared that while their marriage is ending, they remain united in raising their daughter. 'We'd like to take a moment to address the speculation surrounding our relationship. After much thought, reflection and conversations, we have mutually decided to part ways and end our marriage. While we had hoped to share this news at a time that felt right for us, the unfortunate early release by the media has prompted us to speak sooner than we had planned. Though our marriage is ending, our friendship is not,' read the statement. 'We are committed to showing up as a united team for our beautiful daughter, raising her with the same care, intention and joy she has always known. We're incredibly grateful for the love and support you've shown us, specially through The Ndlovu's Uncut . During this deeply personal time, we kindly ask for privacy, grace and compassion for our family,' read the statement. In 2023, the former couple marked their fourth wedding anniversary. The Skeem Saam actor openly expressed his love in a touching tribute to Stephanie, sincerely thanking her for choosing to share her life with him. 'I'm not perfect, I'm not a saint. I'm not anything that people might think I am. You know my flaws, my traumas. You know my greatest weaknesses, my most vulnerable moments in life. I am growing, and my growing pains are real. With all that said…I wanna thank you for choosing me for the past 6 years, going on 7 years! I love you @miss_sandows and I hope we continue to mature in our love like fine wine,' he wrote.

Describing her experience of being newly married, Mdoda radiated happiness as she shared: "I'm spoiled, I'm pampered, it's nice. I do nothing which is great ... They try to tell us women, you must cook, you must clean, no, none of that. The real marriage is that it's the man that does everything." She continued to say that all she needed to do was cook. "It's so nice to find a partner, like I've literally found an equal, like he my dude, he's my guy. I feel so protected and safe and it's just that entire thing. Also because he's the one person in the world that I don't have to convince to be on my side. He is automatically on my side." Video Player is loading.

Next Stay Close ✕ While Mdoda celebrated her marital bliss, Dhlomo chimed in with playful banter, teasing the possibility of his own secret marriage. The light-hearted conversation continued as Noah revealed that Mdoda's upcoming white wedding would be a significant milestone for him - it would be the first wedding he has ever attended. "I've never attended a wedding ever in my life ... A part of the reason I don't attend weddings is because I work to much and the other reason is that people don't invite me to their weddings or they uninvite me because I am me," said Noah. Curious about wedding etiquette, he sought advice from Mdoda regarding her special day. "Is there anything I should or shouldn't do?" To which Mdoda responded: "You'll be fine, Trevor. You've been to the Oscars and Grammy's ..." She also divulged the one rule that she will never break when attending weddings. "I have a hard rule that I do not take photos at weddings with people because it's all about the couple, leave me out of it," said Mdoda. Watch the full podcast below.
