Thembisa Nxumalo Throws Shade At Anele Mdoda With “Lies, Lies, Lies” Video After Netflix Reveal
IYOH! The Mdoda family drama is getting messier by the minute. Thembisa Nxumalo has shared a cryptic video about “lies” shortly after Anele Mdoda opened up about her estrangement from her sisters in her new Netflix wedding special.

Just when Mzansi thought the Mdoda family drama could not get any more uncomfortable, another sister appears to have entered the conversation. Thembisa Nxumalo has left social media users speculating after reposting a video that repeatedly declares, “Lies, lies, lies, and everywhere lies.”
The timing has raised eyebrows because the post appeared on Friday, 13 November 2026, shortly after Anele’s Netflix docu-soap, Stars and Vows: Anele & Buzza, premiered. The video was shared without a caption, but with the family tensions already playing out publicly, many are interpreting it as a possible response to Anele.
Thembisa Nxumalo Shares “Lies” Video After Anele Mdoda's Netflix Revelation
The clip, originally from TikTok, features Ngizwe Mchunu during an eNCA interview. In the short recording, an animated street-side scene plays while the audio delivers a blunt message: “Oh, lies, lies, lies, and everywhere lies.”
Thembisa offered no explanation or direct mention of Anele when she reposted the footage to her Instagram Stories. However, the timing has fuelled speculation that the message could be connected to what was revealed in the Netflix special.

During the first episode of Stars and Vows, Anele opened up to her bridesmaids about her strained relationship with her sisters. She explained that sharing blood does not automatically mean people have to like one another, adding that she and her sisters were approaching 30 years without speaking.
The revelation has put the spotlight on the long-running family estrangement, particularly because Thembisa, Unathi and Zamalisa were absent from Anele’s 2025 wedding celebrations.

Thembisa’s cryptic post comes just days after another sister, Zamalisa, publicly criticised Anele for allegedly bringing their family's private matters into the public eye. Zamalisa accused her of repeatedly exposing family issues and warned that she was prepared to reveal what she described as Anele’s “dirty laundry.”
She also used strong words, accusing her sister of ongoing “harassing and lying” about the family. Those allegations added another explosive chapter to the tensions, even before the Netflix special gave viewers a glimpse into the sisters’ estrangement.
