Lupita then confirmed her breakup from her boyfriend, Selema Masekala around the same time and shared an emotional statement on social media as she described how she needed to “publicly dissociate myself from someone I can no longer trust.”
She wrote: “I find myself in a season of heartbreak because of a love suddenly and devastatingly extinguished by deception.” Lupita continued: “I am reminded that the magnitude of the pain I am feeling is equal to the measure of my capacity for love. And so, I am choosing to face the pain, cultivating the courage to meet my life exactly as it is, and trusting that this too shall pass.”
