Men and women handle a break-up differently and for most women, that involves becoming hotter than you have ever been now that he is no longer in your life. 
American reality star Khloe Kardashian is a case in point; she got so much hotter after she split from her husband Lamar Odom and has since turned the concept into a reality show called 'Revenge Body.'
She has come under fire for the idea that there is retribution in slimming down and becoming more conventionally attractive but there is some truth to it.  Just look at what Ciara's life became after Future tried to ruin it. 
Just ask these ladies...

Zinhle Jiyane

Even though her relationship with AKA took her from edgy, urban, tomboy to a sexier version of her persona, she has never looked better than she currently does. 
Her body is on point, she always looks happy and she wears love well (we're looking at you Brandon and Kairo).
Even though the split from the father of her child may have hurt, we'd like to see it as an opportunity for her to have Kairo before finding what we hope is the love of her life. 

Nadia Nakai

Another woman who has never looked better than she currently does is Family Tree Records' first lady, Nadia Nakai. 
She's even upped her game in terms of her career; she raps better, dresses better and performs like she means it. We're thinking maybe she had to release Dot.Com in order to free up her hands so she can catch these blessings. 

Gigi Lamayne
Gigi was so heart-broken after her break up last year that she even deleted all her Instagram pictures and started from scratch. It was evident that those first few days were rough because all she was posting were thirst traps and images captioned with motivational quotes. 
She still posts the thirst traps but they no longer have that "middle finger to my exes" undertone.

K Naomi

Model, Keitumetse Naomi Noinyane, has always been a flame but she went from Saiyan to Super Saiyan following her break-up with fellow model and presenter Lunga Tshabalala. 
We're not complaining though, it was kind of unfair for two incredibly pretty people to be in a relationship. Even Brangelina came to an end. 

Minnie Dlamini


Like K Naomi, Minnie has always been a flame but she just levelled up after Khune and the SABC. She has now found happiness in the form of Quinton Jones and a new job at Supersport (DSTV). Onwards and upwards girl, onwards and upwards!

Pearl Modiadie

The downfall of Pearl's relationship was one of the saddest we have had to report on but it makes us happy to see her doing well. 
She took herself on an unplanned vacation to Bali earlier this year before coming back and diving right into work. Not only is she continuing with her jobs on Metro FM and SABC 1 but she's apparently testing her acting chops by playing the role of Mapula in the upcoming film about Collen Chauke. 

Nomzamo Mbatha break-up from former Idols contestant Khaya Mthetwa

Whether she's in a swimsuit, jumpsuit or pantsuit - Nomzamo Mbatha is just slaying our entire lives with her hotness. Especially after her break-up from former Idols contestant Khaya Mthetwa. 
On top of being a natural aptitude for acting that puts her head-and-shoulders above the rest, she has a beautiful face, a stunning smile, a phenomenal pair of breasts, a tummy to die for, an ass like 'woah' and some envy-worthy legs. 
As you can tell, we're obsessed with Nomzamo, which is why we almost fell off our chairs when she posted this tweet about needing to fix her body.

Girrrrl! You know your body is bangin', now quit playing. 

Sbahle Mpisane announces split from Itu Khune.

Itu Khune's bae flaunts her bootylicious bikini body The comments section was immediately inundated with messages, but Sbahle soon deleted the message. "I am no longer dating the Kaizer Chiefs Bafana Bafana goalkeeper anymore sadly," she went on to write.
