Old Wounds, New Fire! Oscar Mbo Faces Resurfaced Abuse Claims From Ex Ursula Dlamini

South African Amapiano star Oscar Mbo is trending for all the wrong reasons after old abuse allegations resurfaced.

The DJ’s ex-girlfriend, Ursula Dlamini, took to her Instagram Close Friends this week, posting screenshots and emotional statements detailing physical abuse she says she endured years ago while dating the star. According to Dlamini, no police case was ever opened, but she says recent events reopened old wounds she thought had healed.

Now married with two children, Dlamini says she was triggered after watching a viral assault video involving a KZN influencer, which pushed her to speak out again — echoing similar claims she made back in 2023, shortly after DJ Maphorisa’s arrest.

And just like that… Mzansi is divided.

Oscar Mbo Abuse Allegations Resurface — Why Now?

As expected, the timing of Dlamini’s claims has sparked intense debate online.

Some fans are standing firmly behind Oscar Mbo, questioning why the allegations are resurfacing now and pointing to the lack of a formal police case. Others argue that survivors don’t owe the public “perfect timing” or legal paperwork to share their truth — especially when trauma can resurface years later.

Gender-based violence (GBV) advocates say this situation reflects a much bigger issue in South Africa’s entertainment industry, where power, silence, and lack of accountability often intersect.

Oscar Mbo and his team have remained silent as the story continues to gain traction across X (Twitter), Instagram, and TikTok.

Fans Side-Eye Oscar Mbo’s Current Relationship

Adding fuel to the fire, netizens have dragged Oscar Mbo’s current girlfriend and fiancée, Lerato Phasha, into the conversation.

The couple, who have been together for several years, are engaged and welcomed their first child — a baby boy — in 2025, regularly sharing family milestones online.

Mzansi Reacts: The Internet Does What It Does Best

Here’s how fans and critics are reacting online:

@AladyPL: “I have no respect for a man who uses his strength to hurt a woman. True strength is protecting, respecting, and uplifting others.”

@Sparzito_: “Content-driven relationships are toxic, but GBV is serious even in private. People really hide behind fake smiles.”

@destinyzee: “This is the year of outing abusers. Ziyakhala.”

@Ayandamzolo_: “For those asking ‘why now?’ stop defending someone just because he’s your fav.”

@monde031: “This is strange. Why come out now? I hope she’s healed, but what’s the end goal?”

@thebiggirlcheck “We need to check the current girlfriend. Abusers don’t stop, especially without accountability.”

@Pearlyi_n_: “Women are suffering in silence 😭 men, why are you doing this?”
