Dr. Patrice Motsepe Denies Affair Rumors with Actress Katlego Danke, Threatens Legal Action

Billionaire businessman Dr. Patrice Motsepe has firmly denied swirling rumors suggesting that he is romantically involved with Gomora actress Katlego Danke. In a strongly worded statement, Motsepe dismissed the allegations as “fake news” and warned of legal repercussions for those spreading these claims.

Motsepe’s Official Statement

Through his legal representatives, Bowmans Attorneys, Dr. Motsepe issued a categorical denial of the allegations, which include claims that he has children with Katlego Danke or is in a relationship with her.

“On behalf of Dr. Patrice Motsepe, we put on record that the allegations in the media that Dr. Patrice Motsepe has children or a relationship with Ms. Katlego Danke are absolutely false and are fake news,” the statement read.

The legal team further cautioned that such falsehoods are defamatory and may expose those propagating them to legal liability.

“These allegations are defamatory and expose the disseminators of these false and untrue allegations to legal liability,” the lawyers warned.

Social Media Backlash

The rumors reached fever pitch on social media, where many speculated that the 61-year-old Motsepe had allegedly impregnated Danke for the second time. Despite being married to physician and entrepreneur Dr. Precious Moloi-Motsepe, most of the online criticism was directed at Danke.

One social media user commented:

“Katlego Danke is a disgrace. She’s been praised in South Africa for being a homewrecker to Dr. Precious Moloi-Motsepe’s marriage by even falling pregnant twice for Patrice Motsepe. Celebrities don’t want to be independent; they want a rich, lavish lifestyle by dating wealthy men to sustain them. Sies!”

Katlego Danke Responds

In a related development, Die Son reported that Katlego Danke refuted the allegations, stating unequivocally that Dr. Patrice Motsepe is not the father of her child. Her statement was intended to dispel the rumors and put an end to the public speculation linking her to Motsepe.

Legal Consequences for Defamation

Dr. Motsepe’s legal team reiterated the seriousness of the allegations, emphasizing the consequences for those who continue to spread unverified and defamatory information.

Dr. Patrice Motsepe’s strong denial and legal threats highlight the gravity of the situation. By labeling the allegations as “fake news” and warning against defamation, he aims to safeguard his reputation and that of his family.
