‘Looks like a family orgy’ − Social media reacts to Unathi’s birthday weekend getaway

Media personality Unathi Nkayi had tongues wagging after sharing video clips and pictures from her birthday weekend.


Media personality Unathi Nkayi celebrated her birthday with two of her best friends at Sun City this past weekend.

Nkayi, who turned 45 on 6 November, shares her birthday with South African photographer, Mazwi Vezi, who also joined the celebrations at The Palace, The Lost City for the weekend.

Taking to Instagram, Nkayi shared several posts to give her followers a glimpse into her glamorous getaway, but unfortunately she didn’t get the response she anticipated as several followers were confused about who her companions were.

In an Instagram post shared on 4 November, Nyaki lounges on a chair with a very loosely fitted gown in frame 1. In frame 2, she shares a sultry selfie and in frame 4 she poses at a lunch table with three other people, one of whom is Vezi.

It is unclear who the older couple in the photograph is. However, it is frame 5 that had Netizens fainting and rushing to the comments section to get clarity about the guest list. In the photograph, Vezi stands in a towel, his six-pack on full display as someone’s hand strokes over his abs.

The photograph captioned: “Birthday weekend. Spent the day at The Royal Spa @suncityresortsa BLISS” was immediately flooded with comments and questions by followers.

User Dafi Efrym Khoza commented: “Couples goals” to which Unathi replied: “@dafi_efrym_khoza NOPE. 3 besties. Two make one female. I’ll NEVER post my person.”

Unathi’s birthday weekend

On Sunday Unathi shared a short video clip of the staff at The Palace singing Happy Birthday to Mazwi. Placing a cake in front of the birthday boy, staff members can be heard singing “Happy Birthday”, while the photographer covers his face and slides down his chair looking a little embarrassed.

“I love you Wele” is all Unathi captioned the short video clip with.

Social media’s uninformed tweets leads to hilarious reactions

We should know by now that you shouldn’t believe everything you see on social media as there are numerous trolls who will post just about anything to get their 15 minutes of fame. The streets of X was abuzz on Wednesday morning about Unathi’s raunchy family getaway.

While the media personality did clarify on Instagram that she was in Sun City with two of her besties, twitter user @DonaldMakhasane somehow had the facts very twisted, posting photos of Unathi’s weekend escapaes commenting that Unathi celebrated her son’s birthday in style.

Netizens couldn’t get to their keyboards fast enough to comment on this ‘inappropriate’ family getaway. Here are some of the best reactions:
