Doctor Khumalo’s ex-wife spotted enjoying quality time with their 22-year-old son

Nolly Blanche Garises, the former wife of retired Bafana Bafana attacking midfielder Doctor Khumalo and a former Air Namibia flight attendant, has given her followers a rare glimpse into her private family life.

The Namibia-born mother recently shared a special moment with her eldest son, Diego Khumalo, as he celebrated his 22nd birthday. Known for keeping her personal affairs away from the public spotlight, Garises appeared to make an exception for the occasion by posting a short video from their birthday celebration.

On Thursday evening, Garises took to Instagram to share footage of herself enjoying a meal with Diego at an upscale restaurant. The intimate celebration also included one of Diego’s close friends, making the occasion a memorable gathering for the young man.

Garises, who has maintained a relatively low profile since her marriage to Doctor Khumalo ended, appeared relaxed and happy as she spent quality time with her son. She looked elegant in a red, sleeveless, knee-length dress while posing during the celebration.

Accompanying the video was a brief but meaningful caption from Garises. She simply wrote, “Quality Time”.

The post offered followers a glimpse of the close relationship between the mother and her son. Although Garises rarely shares details about her family life, her latest post showed that she remains actively involved in important moments in Diego’s life.

Diego Khumalo has generally remained out of the public spotlight compared with his famous father, who enjoyed a highly successful career with Bafana Bafana and Kaizer Chiefs. As a result, appearances involving the 22-year-old tend to attract attention from fans interested in the former football star’s family.

Garises and Doctor Khumalo were previously married before their divorce was finalised several years ago. Since then, Garises has continued to maintain a private lifestyle and has largely avoided sharing extensive details about her personal relationships.

The birthday celebration therefore provided a rare opportunity for her followers to see the mother-and-son bond away from the usual public attention surrounding Doctor Khumalo.

The Instagram video has also prompted interest among fans, with some commenting on Diego’s appearance and drawing comparisons between him and his parents. However, the main focus of Garises’ post remained the simple celebration of her son’s special milestone and the time they spent together as a family.
