In one of the images, they were even depicted sharing a kiss.<\/p>\n<p>The images were shared by a controversial X user and quickly gained traction, reigniting speculation that the amapiano hitmaker and the singer could be romantically involved.<\/p>\n<p>The rumours are not entirely new; back in 2025, music personality Tebogo G Mashego had claimed during one of his online rants that the two were seeing each other privately.<\/p>\n<p>Those claims were later echoed by Sfiso \u2018Mafitsotso\u2019 Ndlovu, who alleged that MaWhoo had been spotted driving one of Maphorisa\u2019s luxury cars, further fuelling speculation about their relationship.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the ongoing chatter, Mawhoo previously shut down the rumours, making it clear that she has not been romantically linked to anyone in the industry.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve neither dated\/ been chowed by anyone in the industry,\u201d she said at the time.<\/p>\n<p>Even so, the resurfacing of the AI-generated images has once again divided social media.<\/p>\n<p>While some users were convinced the pair could be a good match, others were quick to question the authenticity of the photos and the narrative surrounding them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese two would make such a great couple. I\u2019m yearning for them,\u201d one user commented.<\/p>\n<p>Another added, \u201cG Mashego told you guys, and you said he\u2019s on drugs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Others approached the situation with humour, with one joking, \u201cPhori wants them one by one!\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"in\">Hawu \ud83e\udd14 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ExyhIXJVul\" rel=\"nofollow\">pic.twitter.com\/ExyhIXJVul<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 TWAR___SA\ud83c\uddff\ud83c\udde6 (@TwaRSA26) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TwaRSA26\/status\/2033148448560599306?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">March 15, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 4 -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><script data-jetpack-boost=\"ignore\" async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-1669381584671856\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- Africa tv video display -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1669381584671856\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"3579572842\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script data-jetpack-boost=\"ignore\">\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n#Maphorisa #MaWhoo #spark #dating #buzz #viral #photos<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#13; AI photo of DJ Maphorisa and Mawhoo kissing goes viral DJ Maphorisa and Mawoo have once again found themselves&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":52994,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-52993","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mzansi"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52993","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=52993"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52993\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":52995,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52993\/revisions\/52995"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/52994"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=52993"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=52993"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=52993"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
