Black Coffee and model bae celebrate fifth anniversary
The DJ and the Venezuelan model first began dating in 2019, the same year he divorced his wife, Enhle Mbali.
Despite previously keeping their relationship private, Black Coffee and Victoria Gonzaléz have now opted to go public about their romance.
This includes posts on their vacations around the world, bonding with family and friends, and publicly praising each other on their Instagram accounts.
This week, the couple posted images of their five-year anniversary on their Instagram Stories. In the pics, taken in 2019 and again in 2025, Black Coffee and Victoria posed on the streets of Milan, where they hugged and kissed each other.
In 2019, Black Coffee and Enhle Mbali announced their official separation after tying the knot in a traditional wedding ceremony in 2011. They share two sons, Anesu and Asante.
What followed was a bitter split that involved plenty of dirty laundry.
Enhle – an actress – accused the DJ of physical, verbal, and financial abuse during and after their relationship. She also accused her ex of tapping her phone.
A year ago, Black Coffee told Kaya FM that he hoped to remarry one day.
He said, 'I modeled marriage my own way. Because of my parents' failing in marriage, and then not being raised by either of them
'You want to be the driver of this thing…you forget there is someone next to you'.
He continued: 'There are things we wish for people, and there's things they wish for themselves. And we make the mistake of imposing our wishes on them.
'I want to try marriage again just to understand it.'

Lynn Forbes and Louisa Zondo, the mothers of the late Mzansi rappers Kiernan "AKA" Forbes and Riky Rick, have forged a bond that shines through their shared pain of loss. The mothers, who lost their sons a year apart, have chosen to stand together as not just grieving figures but as champions of keeping their sons' legacies alive. Recently, Forbes took to Instagram to share an emotional glimpse into their journey together. Posting a photo alongside Zondo, she recounted their unforgettable experience of summiting Kilimanjaro in 2018. "Connected with my dear friend @louisazondo this morning. We summited Kilimanjaro together in 2018, oblivious to the mountains we would have to climb as mothers. We each lost our son, a year apart … first Rikhado (Riky Rick) and then Kiernan … Young kings and friends with powerful voices. "We're still climbing, together. Not always strong, but always resilient. Focused, steady and committed to preserving their legacies. 🤍🕊️." Video Player is loading.

"20 July is your birthday, MaRiky. Not for a single moment are you ever blurred in our hearts. Thank you for the honour of being a parent to you. Thank you for being a Good Ancestor to us," she wrote alongside a collage from his childhood. In light of the loss of Rick, who died by suicide, Sandton City, in partnership with the Riky Rick Foundation, has launched the "Words That Heal" initiative. The campaign aims to facilitate conversations about mental health and provide a platform for artistic expression and activism, known as "artivism". The initiative responds to the critical mental health challenges facing South Africa's youth, where over 60% report struggling with mental health issues. "Words That Heal" invites the public to share uplifting voice notes via WhatsApp, which will be collated into a curated song of hope and released later this year to support the Riky Rick Foundation's mission of providing free therapy for young people.

The second phase of the project will launch during Mental Health Month in October, with planned immersive experiences at Sandton City, allowing shoppers to connect with Rick's music while raising awareness about mental health. Sandton City will also host a pop-up retail space featuring limited-edition merchandise designed in collaboration with artist Samurai Farai, where proceeds will directly support the foundation's initiatives aimed at creating safe spaces for youth.
