South African media personality Minnie Dlamini has publicly celebrated Valentine’s Day with her new partner, renowned plastic surgeon Dr. Brian Monaisa. The couple took to social media to share their affection, marking a significant moment in their relationship.
On February 14, 2025, Minnie posted a heartfelt message on her Instagram account, accompanied by a photo of herself and Dr. Monaisa. She wrote: “Roses are red. Our favorite color is Blue. Happy Valentine’s Day. From me to you 💙. Thank you for loving me and loving me loudly. Happy Valentine’s Day Motho Waka.” The term “Motho Waka” translates to “my person” in Setswana, reflecting the deep bond between the two.
Dr. Monaisa also shared a candid snapshot of Minnie on his Instagram, expressing his admiration. He captioned the image: “I asked my girl to come with me for a business trip, she made it amazing.” This public acknowledgment from both parties signifies the couple’s willingness to share their relationship with the world.
In addition to their affectionate posts, Minnie Dlamini revealed a luxurious gift from Dr. Monaisa a brand-new Porsche. She shared images of the sleek vehicle on her Instagram Stories, expressing her gratitude and excitement. This grand gesture further underscores the depth of their relationship and Dr. Monaisa’s affection for Minnie.
The couple’s relationship has been the subject of public interest since they were first spotted together in late 2024. Speculation about their romance grew when they shared similar photos from a trip to Harare, Zimbabwe, in early February 2025. Dr. Monaisa posted a picture of himself at an upscale hotel, tagging Minnie Dlamini as the photographer, while Minnie shared images from the same location, hinting at their shared experience.
Their relationship has not been without controversy. Dr. Monaisa’s former partner, Neema Aloyce, publicly accused Minnie Dlamini of being involved with him while they were still together, labeling her a “side chick.” However, close friends of the couple have refuted these claims, stating that Minnie Dlamini and Dr. Monaisa’s relationship developed naturally after both had become single. A source close to the couple noted, “They were both in relationships, and they were genuine friends, and we all spent a lot of time together. It just happened naturally when both of them became single.”
Despite the rumors, Minnie Dlamini and Dr. Monaisa have continued to share glimpses of their relationship on social media, indicating a strong and affectionate bond. Their public displays of affection, especially on Valentine’s Day, have garnered both support and criticism from the public.
Minnie Dlamini, known for her television presenter and actress work, has been a prominent figure in South African media for over a decade. Her previous marriage to Quinton Jones ended in divorce in 2022. Dr. Brian Monaisa is a well-respected plastic surgeon, serving as the Head of Plastic Surgery at Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital. He has gained recognition for his work and has a substantial following on social media, where he shares insights into his professional and personal life.
As the couple continues to navigate their relationship in the public eye, they have chosen to focus on their happiness and shared experiences. Their Valentine’s Day posts reflect a mutual appreciation and affection, suggesting a promising future together.
In the world of celebrity relationships, public scrutiny is inevitable. However, Minnie Dlamini and Dr. Brian Monaisa appear to be embracing their journey together, sharing their love openly, and celebrating their connection with those who support them.
