Thabiso’s last appearance on DJ Fresh’s podcast, ‘What a Week,’ highlighted their enduring bond. Even after ending a 20-year marriage, they remained close friends, discussing the humorous and the heartfelt.
DJ Fresh’s apology was not only an acknowledgment of his past mistakes but also a tribute to Thabiso’s forgiving nature. ‘Because this woman personified love, she forgave me more times than I deserved,’ he reflected.
Her unwavering love and forgiveness had profoundly shaped their relationship, making her loss even more poignant. ‘She would relentlessly not give up on me as a human being,’ he added, recounting the countless instances of her patience and compassion.
Thabiso’s legacy lives on through their children, who embody her qualities of love and resilience. DJ Fresh acknowledged this, expressing deep appreciation for the family they created together.
In his heartfelt tribute, he reiterated that his public apology was long overdue, intending to fulfil the promise he made just before her passing. ‘It was not complete until it was done in public,’ he admitted, signifying the importance of this final act of remorse.
DJ Fresh’s apology highlighted the complexities of their relationship and reflected on their last days together. “It doesn’t make sense. One thing I appreciate, especially about these children you blessed us with, is they are exactly like you.
“Because this woman personified love, she forgave me more times than I deserved. She would relentlessly not give up on me as a human being. Even when she said, ‘maybe we must just cut our losses’, she said it with love. Any other person would have probably walked away long ago but because she was love, she didn’t give up.
“The only thing I owe her that was meant to be delivered last week when we recorded the podcast, was an apology in public for heartache I had caused her. That was the point of that podcast — a public apology for any heartbreak, any heartache, any embarrassment, people’s eyes that I caused you.
“I apologised to you and the children, but it was not complete until it was done in public.
“I’m sorry, my friend.”
