LOVE has DIED . . . and it won’t be getting a Kingdom Blue send-off!
Brilliant Ncube, the flashy founder and CEO of the internationally acclaimed Kingdom Blue Funeral Services, is at the centre of a scandal straight from a soapie script — after divorcing his wife Sibonguthando Ncube for allegedly cheating and falling pregnant with another man’s child!
When Brilliant uncovered the affair, sources say it wasn’t just his heart that was shattered — the entire household crumbled into chaos.
“He couldn’t take the betrayal, especially after discovering she was carrying another man’s child. Things got tense at home and he decided to end the marriage,” spilled a close source.
The heartbroken funeral boss swiftly filed for divorce at the Bulawayo High Court, and took full custody of their five children. But the drama didn’t end there.
Sibonguthando fired back — demanding US$1 200 in spousal maintenance, and even dragged Brilliant to court to get it! The court ruled in her favour last year in September.
Though Brilliant initially paid, financial cracks began to show — and now he’s knee-deep in US$5 600 arrears.
This week, the dapper undertaker appeared in court pleading financial incapacity. He told the court he earns R40 000 monthly, but broke it down with chilling detail:
“My first-born is at university — I pay R43 000 in fees. Transport costs me R1 500, rent R7 500. I’m supporting seven children — even the one I found out isn’t mine. But legally, I have to until the child turns 18.”
He proposed selling their jointly owned US$65 000 housing stand, suggesting the proceeds support Sibonguthando — but her lawyers shut that down, demanding evidence and dropping a bombshell:
“That property is already tied up in litigation under case 555/25,” her lawyer told the court.
With tensions boiling and accusations flying like funeral doves, Magistrate Sharon Gava remanded the case to 28 April.
As the kingdom of love crumbles for this funeral tycoon — the courtroom has become the new battleground for the Ncube exes!
