Dineo Ranaka’s estranged hubby, Klaas Pesha, is reportedly suing the media personality over abuse allegations she made.
Pesha is said to be suing for damages of R500 000 over statements Ranaka made on her WhatsApp statuses and during an interview with Mac G.
According to a Sunday World report, Ranaka’s estranged husband and father of her child, claims the abuse allegations she made about him are lies.
The radio presenter spoke out about being abused just 7-months after saying “I do” to Pesha at their Tshwane home.
Pesha claims that Ranaka shared several WhatsApp statuses in October last year which painted him in a bad light.
“I would rather have a divorce decree than a premature death certificate. I cannot believe I married a man who has the FULL capability of killing me and making my death look like it’s my own doing.”

Pesha, the Managing Director of KPH Mining reportedly filed papers in the Johannesburg High Court last week. He is calling for Ranaka to withdraw the statements and apologise for the defamatory comments as they have ruined his professional reputation.
During her interview on Podcast and Chill with Mac G, Ranaka claims that Pesha once assaulted her while she was carrying their 3-month old baby.
“If that guy didn’t hit me in my marriage, then we would still be on good terms. I had my three-month-old baby in my arms the last time he hit me and I was like no, this is not how it’s going to go down. Not me who doesn’t submit to bull.
They try and threaten you to silence you. If anyone is in an abusive relationship don’t take those threats to heart. Speak about your pain, speak about your experience, talk about it, and make the abuser smaller and smaller and smaller in the capacity of how they think they are a big monster. Abusive people tend to threaten you and they have a tendency to want you to shut up about your story.”

The couple were married in 2020 and Ranaka gave birth to their daughter in July 2021. Their marriage has been riddled with allegations that Pesha had cheated on her.
Despite this Ranaka said she stayed because she intended on cheating too once she had healed from her c-section.
