DJ Black Coffee has spoken out regarding the Constitutional Court’s recent ruling on antenuptial agreements related to customary marriages.
He asserted that this judgment does not affect his ongoing legal dispute with his ex-wife, Enhle Mbali Mlotshwa.
The renowned producer, whose real name is Nkosinathi Maphumulo, captured attention online following the ruling on January 21, 2026, as many speculated it might undermine his appeal at the Supreme Court and affirm a High Court ruling that granted Enhle half of his assets and ongoing support.
This discussion was sparked further when podcaster and commentator Penuel Mlotshwa shared insights on the court's decision.
In a response posted on January 22, Black Coffee addressed common misconceptions surrounding his case, emphasizing that the ruling in question is from a different situation and should not be confused with his appeal.
He elaborated on two main grounds for his challenge against the High Court decision, which recognized his 2011 traditional Zulu ceremony as valid and deemed his antenuptial contracts from 2017 and 2019 invalid.
“Spot on. I’m probably going to get in trouble with my legal team for this comment, but as you said, this is not just about me anymore, and keeping quiet about this hasn’t helped me in any way. Either way, details of our case at this point are out there,” he wrote.
He further explained that his case is fundamentally different, stating, “The case you mentioned is different from our case because there was no customary marriage.”
Black Coffee pinpointed the critical elements of his appeal: “1. Intention (we both never intended to enter into a customary marriage). All the details supporting this are in our case, as documented by both of us. 2. Prenup We signed this as our 1st step to the agreed civil marriage (even our prenup states that we were unmarried).”
He wrapped up his response by recognizing the limitations on what he can publicly share, expressing, “I obviously will not divulge more than this, but I hope this carries enough weight to keep the conversation going for all🙏🏿”.
