Ex-Big Brother Mzansi star Themba Mabaso speaks out about swollen jaw – WATCH! Reality TV star and socialite Themba ‘Broly’ Mabaso, known for his time on Big Brother Mzansi, recently took to social media to address concerns over his visibly swollen jaw.

In a viral video posted on X (formerly Twitter), Themba appeared to be struggling to speak, prompting widespread speculation and humorous reactions from fans and critics alike. While some users made lighthearted jokes about his condition, others hurled insults and offered wild theories about what could have caused the swelling.

Fans React to Themba’s Swollen Jaw

Themba’s video quickly gained traction, with X users sharing their thoughts—some in support and others mocking him.

Many speculated that his swollen jaw was caused by excessive smoking of weed, while others dragged his ex-girlfriend and baby mama, Mpho Wabadimo, into the conversation, blaming her for his ailment.

The former BBMzansi contestant has been in the spotlight for his on-and-off relationship with Mpho, and their public breakup in 2023 only fueled more speculation. Some fans blamed Mpho for bewitching him, while others simply wished him well.

Here are some notable reactions from social media:

• @Thabo_X: “Broly needs to lay off that blunt for a while. That jaw is looking hectic!”
• @Lerato_Kay: “Mpho must be behind this. She probably got tired of his nonsense!”
• @Kea_Ntuli: “This is sad. People should stop joking about his pain.”
• @Sizwe_M: “When you don’t listen to your ancestors, they humble you in the worst way!”

Themba Sets the Record Straight

Following the overwhelming online response, Themba decided to clarify the situation with another video, this time posted on his Instagram account.

In the video, he revealed that his swollen jaw was not due to smoking, stress, or any supernatural cause, but rather a broken wisdom tooth.

“I know people are saying a lot of things, but the truth is, I have a broken wisdom tooth. That’s why my jaw is swollen. I need to get it checked out.”

The explanation calmed some fans, though a few continued to make jokes about the situation.

Themba’s Health Concerns in the Spotlight

This is not the first time Themba has faced health concerns that became public knowledge. In the past, he has opened up about mental health struggles, dealing with fame, and personal challenges since his rise to stardom.

Many of his supporters wished him a speedy recovery, urging him to seek medical attention as soon as possible.

Some also criticized the online bullying that arose from the situation, saying that making fun of someone’s health struggles is unacceptable.

A Look at Themba’s Journey

Themba Mabaso became a fan-favorite during his time on Big Brother Mzansi, earning himself a strong social media following. After the show, he ventured into music, endorsements, and reality TV, growing his brand beyond BBMzansi.

However, his personal life has also kept him in the headlines, particularly his tumultuous relationship with fellow reality star Mpho Wabadimo. The two welcomed a child together, but their breakup made waves on social media, with accusations and rumors following them ever since.

What’s Next for Themba?

With the wisdom tooth issue now public, many fans are hoping he gets medical attention and recovers soon.

Despite the mockery and wild theories, Themba seems to be taking things in stride, proving that he can handle social media drama just as well as he handled life inside the Big Brother house.

For now, we can only wish him a speedy recovery—and hope he stays away from the comments section until the jokes die down!
