A lot has been said about Minnie Dlamini’s relationship, marriage and divorce. Most far-fetched and mean-spirited.
Say thank you The upside of failure podcast on her 702, Minnie reflected on the lessons learned, not only from marriage and how it ended but also from the end of her business.
“When people over-sensationalize, over-dramatize, make lies about you, it’s one of the most painful things because I can’t close from the rooftop to everyone and explain my truth. At the end of the day, I also feel unnecessary. As long as my family close and friends know what’s true and what’s going on, it’s relationships and people that I think should tell. Other people will only know if they know,” said Minnie.
So Mrs. Jones
In 2017, Minenhle ‘Minnie’ Dlamini married Quinton Jones and documented their marriage in a three-part special for Multichoice.

Minnie also said that she felt as if the end of her marriage, however painful, was a second chance at life for her.
“I think part of the failure was on my part because I couldn’t choose what was right for me before I went all in… ‘that’s a red flag, and a red flag… you’re a red flag!’ I’m not blaming you in any way, shape, or form, but you are a red flag and you don’t admit it or you have a red flag and you don’t admit it.
