But for Henkel, this is about more than paperwork. It is about protecting her children. “My chief concern is for my children,” she shared.
“I would prefer not to be drawn into issues my ex-husband faces. As parents with children of your own, I am certain you will understand my position.” The former Miss SA, who has largely kept her private life out of the spotlight in recent years, also addressed speculation involving a luxury vehicle mentioned in reports. She clarified that the car did not belong to her.
Instead, it belonged to someone she dated after her divorce. According to Henkel, it was returned after that relationship ended.
