Nonkanyiso “LaConco” Conco, the TV presenter and reality star, recently took to her Instagram stories to open up about her own breakup. She revealed that a post by actress Lupita Nyong’o triggered her to finally speak up about the pain caused by her ex.
While LaConco did not explicitly mention who her ex is, she was previously romantically linked to a prominent figure in politics, former president Jacob Zuma. Despite the heartbreak, she had chosen to remain silent until now.
Keeping Quiet for Two Reasons
LaConco shared that there were two main reasons why she had kept quiet about her breakup for so long. Firstly, she believed that giving her pain to God meant giving Him power over her life. This shows her faith and trust in a higher power to heal and guide her through difficult times.
Secondly, LaConco mentioned that she had protected her ex’s dignity. Despite the pain he had caused, she chose to maintain his image and not publicly expose him. This decision reflects her maturity and respect for the privacy of their relationship.
Wishing Jacob Zuma a Happy Birthday
Earlier this year, LaConco showed her continued support for her ex-fiancé, baby daddy, and former president Jacob Zuma. On his 81st birthday, she took to her social media to wish him and their son, Sakhaumuzi Zuma, a happy birthday.
In her heartfelt message, LaConco expressed her fond memories of their time together and wished them both health, prosperity, genuine love, peace, loyalty, and all that is great. This gesture demonstrates her ability to separate personal emotions from the well-being of her child and the father of her child.

Lupita Nyong’o’s Triggering Post
It was Lupita Nyong’o’s post about her own breakup that finally pushed LaConco to share her own experience. Lupita, who became an Instagram official with Selema Masekela in December 2022, shared her pain and vulnerability with her followers.
While Lupita’s post may have triggered LaConco, it also created a space for her to find the courage to speak up. It is important to remember that everyone’s journey is different, and what may trigger one person may inspire another to find their voice.
