The personal life of Zimbabwean rapper Holy Ten has spiralled into turmoil, with his wife, Kimberly Richards, fleeing their home amid concerns over his worsening health and erratic behaviour, according to multiple reports.
Mukudzei Chitsama, popularly known as Holy Ten, 26, is currently in South Africa, but his recent actions have reignited debates about the rapper’s habitual outbursts and troubling lifestyle.
Sources close to him told ZimLive that his behaviour is increasingly unpredictable, often accompanied by claims that drugs are influencing his decisions.
Friends and family say Holy Ten has resisted long-term medical intervention and rehab, despite battling serious health issues, including high blood pressure, pancreatic, and liver problems.
In a widely circulated Instagram rant, Holy Ten accused President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s twin sons, Sean and Collins, of sending soldiers to his residence and seizing gifts tied to his 2023 Zanu PF election endorsement.
He threatened retaliation, prompting Richards to leave the home. He later issued an apology, retracting his threats.

Family sources say Holy Ten’s pattern of explosive public outbursts, combined with abusive behaviour toward relatives, has left those closest to him fearing for their safety.
“He is in a cycle of self-destruction, blaming substances for his actions, and refusing help,” one source said.
The breakdown of his marriage adds to the ongoing crisis, as Richards reportedly moved out amid repeated confrontations and public disputes.
Health officials and social observers have described Holy Ten’s situation as a “cry for help.”
Lloyd Makonese, Public Health Director at ADAAZ, urged for support rather than punitive measures, warning that arrest or forced rehab may not address the underlying issues.
Highlighting his distress, Holy Ten launched a US$35,000 GoFundMe appeal on September 10, 2025, claiming he had “lost everything except our lives.”
