Son

In 2018, Katlego and Monique announced the safe arrival of their first child, a boy named Phoenix Maboe. The news came as a shock to Katlego’a fans, who were not happy about it. Reacting to it, Monique said, “I am happy for my man, and he is great at what he does, and it so happens to put him in this position for people to think they have a say. I for one did not want this to be public at all, which is increasingly the reason seeing this is so frustrating. But we were advised to do so, so the media couldn’t put their spin on it. I am irrelevant, so please refrain from commenting on my (this irrelevant person’s) pregnancy.”
