WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT PEARL AND ROBERT 

Robert Marawa and Pearl Thusi dated for years before they got engaged in 2016. According to Robert, they met at a Polo event.

“She tells me a different story but my memory versus her memory is different. It was, you know these Polo events. It was just the end of the polo [event],” said Robert to Mac G.

“She was driving a polo, and we had parked far…and we were just walking and she was driving, then kind of stopped, and offered me a lift, but I said no don’t worry about that,” he continued.

He went on to say that she continued to drive while he was walking and he refused to get into the car, because she was a stranger. He joked that she could have hijacked or kidnapped him.

PEARL AND ROBERT CALLED IT QUITS IN 2017 

However, the former couple called it quits in 2017. Pearl explained that they had a “great” relationship but it did not work out. She went on to say that you have to leave something when it is no longer good for you.

“Robert and I had a great relationship, things did not work out for reasons we rather not talk about. That wasn’t our intention but that’s what happened,” said Pearl to Mac G at the time.

“You need to know when to leave situations no matter how much you want to stay. When something is not good for you, don’t stay in it, learn from it and move on,”  she continued. 

In a tweet in August 2017, Robert Marawa confirmed their break up saying it ended a few months ago but they remained friends.

On the episode of Podcast and Chill, Robert agreed with the Queen Sono star’s reason why they broke up.

WHERE DOES THE PAIR STAND? 

After all this time, it seems the pair are on good terms. Robert Marawa revealed that they recently spoke and everything was all good.

“The relationship came to an end, she’s right. There’s always been mutual respect. Actually we communicated just the other day,” he said.

“With Pearl there was respect all round. She also got the gig of Quantico when she was in New York, which was a positive thing, because I always knew that the one thing that’s driven her career is to one day hold a statue … an Oscar or whatever,” he added.
