Nonkanyiso “LaConco” Conco, a star of *Real Housewives of Durban*, and former South African president Jacob Zuma have reportedly rekindled their relationship. According to celebrity blogger Musa Khawula, the two are back together after some time apart.
Khawula, known for frequently reporting on celebrity news, shared a video on social media that has sparked widespread attention. In the video, LaConco is seen preparing snacks while speaking with Zuma’s daughter, Duduzile. Khawula captioned the post: “LaConco and Jacob Zuma have rekindled their relationship. LaConco preparing to-go snacks after a hectic night with Jacob Zuma.”
The video further shows LaConco handing snacks to a man dressed in an *uMkhonto weSizwe Party* (MK Party) t-shirt, a political organization associated with the African National Congress. While the man’s face is obscured, many viewers believe the individual is Jacob Zuma himself, prompting speculation that the former president and LaConco have resumed their relationship.https://x.com/Musa_Khawula/status/1840731827503280315?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1840731827503280315%7Ctwgr%5Eacb40e983fc19994d1f6ca942c7d907a85729ae5%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fnews365.co.za%2Flaconco-and-jacob-zuma-reportedly-back-together%2F
### Past Connections
