The former couple had a very toxic relationship which their fans got to see on reality TV show, Dineo’s Diary, in 2013.
In an interview on Choppin It With Bhuda T with Zingah last month, Blaklez said years after they split up, people still referred to him as “Dineo Ranaka’s ex”.
“It was a long time ago. I suppose people are interested in it because it’s one of the major features of my entertainment life. I am not a person who’s very open about my private life.”

“If it was to ever happen, which I doubt because of the kind of stuff I’m pursuing, I’d have more control over it. [In the first show Dineo’s Diary] I bit off more than I could chew. These things work with ratings and if it has to look chaotic for it to hit the numbers, and people respond to the chaos, give more chaos.
“I’m not saying necessarily her, but there are a whole bunch of people behind the production. We played into it. There’s no one who could do something … against their will. I [can’t] play victim. Nobody had a gun to my head,” he said.
