Bali has long been a destination for romance, and the island recently played host to Springbok rugby player Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu and influencer Sarah Langa, fueling speculation about their relationship. While neither has explicitly confirmed a romantic connection, their coinciding vacation and subtle social media interactions suggest a deepening bond.
The pair spent several days on the Indonesian island, sharing glimpses of their travels on Instagram. Feinberg-Mngomezulu, a flyhalf for the Springboks and the Stormers, posted images of a luxurious villa, poolside relaxation, and exploration of local cuisine. Langa, a businesswoman and fashion influencer, showcased her signature style with a series of street and beach looks. Notably, they avoided posting direct photos together, though images surfaced showing them dining at the same restaurant.
The trip coincided with Valentine’s Day, and Langa shared a photo on her Instagram Story of a large bouquet of flowers, seemingly a gift from Feinberg-Mngomezulu. This gesture further intensified the rumors that began circulating in late 2024, after the pair were reportedly spotted hugging and kissing at rugby matches in Paris.
The relationship, if confirmed, would represent a shift for Langa, a 32-year-old divorcee. She was previously married to businessman Jehan Mackay, receiving a reported R3 million settlement upon their divorce – approximately R1 million for each year of their marriage, according to Sunday World. Prior to that, she dated rapper K.O. And, more recently, was linked to Lonwabo Sambudla, the ex-husband of Duduzile Zuma-Sambudla.
Feinberg-Mngomezulu initially denied romantic involvement with Langa when questions first arose. However, the recent Bali trip, coupled with their public displays of affection at sporting events, suggests a change in dynamics. Langa has been a visible supporter of Feinberg-Mngomezulu, attending his matches for both the Springboks and the Stormers.
Langa’s perspective on relationships has evolved since her divorce. In a panel discussion with Nounouche last year, she encouraged other divorced women to embrace new experiences in dating. “Don’t be afraid to get out of your comfort zone,” she advised. “Date someone you wouldn’t normally have dated. Definitely someone from a different background.” She emphasized the importance of exploring beyond familiar patterns, suggesting that perceived love can sometimes be rooted in comfort and safety rather than genuine connection.
This sentiment appears to align with her current situation. Feinberg-Mngomezulu represents a departure from her previous partners, being a professional athlete rather than a figure within the business or entertainment industries. The couple’s cautious approach to publicly acknowledging their relationship – the separate Instagram posts, the shared restaurant sighting – suggests a desire to navigate the attention carefully.
The Bali getaway, feels less like a grand reveal and more like a quiet exploration of a connection that has been developing over time. While the official status of their relationship remains unconfirmed, the evidence suggests that Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu and Sarah Langa are enjoying each other’s company and building a bond that extends beyond friendship. The subtle clues and shared experiences offer a glimpse into a potentially blossoming romance, unfolding away from the immediate glare of the spotlight.
The story highlights a growing trend of public figures navigating relationships with a degree of privacy, utilizing social media to share aspects of their lives while maintaining a level of control over the narrative. It also speaks to the evolving dynamics of modern dating, where individuals are increasingly open to exploring connections outside of their established circles.
