Minnie Dlamini’s recent Instagram posts has many questioning whether the media personality is hinting at a custody battle with her estranged husband Quinton Jones.
While the pair jointly announced an amicable separation in February 2022, allegations of cheating plagued the couple’s 4-year union.
The TV presenter’s cryptic posts on social media suggests her divorce from Quinton Jones just got messy, as Minnie shared a picture of her and their son, with a heartbreaking caption.
“Imagine being someone trying to take a baby away from its mother.”
Minnie and Quinton maintained that they would remain friends, business partners, and loving parents to their son, Netha Makhosini Jones, who will be turning 3-years in November.
In a joint statement at the time, the couple said the decision to end their marriage came after months of separation, consultation with their family, and a counsellor.
Rumours that Minnie and Quinton’s marriage ended because she had cheated on him with businessman Edwin Sodi were squashed by the former couple in a joint statement.
Slamming the allegations as false, damaging and malicious, Minnie and Quinton seemed to put on a united front, but her latest Instagram story suggests that the 33-year old is hinting at a custody battle.
Minnie has previously spoken about raising her child in separate homes was never how she envisioned her life.
“People need to understand that when a marriage ends, it doesn’t end at the announcement or the day before the announcement, it ends long before that.
By the time I announced, I had gone through a lot of processes already.
At the time of the announcement, it felt like a really big relief and a weight off my shoulders.
I never imagined getting divorced. I always thought that I would raise my kids how I was raised.
I just felt like for me, timing was off, I felt like I didn’t know myself. Furthermore, I went onto lose myself in my marriage.”
Earlier this year Minnie hinted that narcissism played a role in her marriage falling apart in a recent Instagram story.
The mother of one also touched on how tough it’s been living life online and reading all the hurtful things people say about her, most of which is untrue.
