The passing of Dylan ‘Kardashian’ Musanhu has resurfaced a week later. This time, claims have been made on how Khanyi Mbau’s ex-brand manager lost his life.
Dylan Kardashian: Cause of death revealed
In a recently published Herald article, it is claimed that Musanhu took his own life, on his 25th birthday. Although, the publication never accompanied this claim with a reference.
The influencer’s family has yet to issue a public statement to corroborate these claims.

Who was he and why was he so important to Khanyi Mbau?
Still, the death of the 25-year-old has hit hard on people like Mbau, who can credit Musanhu for adding a trademark flair to her brand. Looking at all he’s accomplished in his adolescence, it’s without a doubt that Musanhu was a creative talent.
At the age of 18, as a first-year student, he designed the artwork of Mbau’s eTV reality show Katch it With Khanyi, at a time when Lasizwe’s sister was the ‘Paris Hilton’ of South Africa.
Musanhu is also credited for creative inputs in Mbau’s app and other campaigns.
Perhaps, a moment Musahnu has taken along with him in his ‘transition’ is getting recognised by his idol Nicki Minaj in 2013 when the rapstress reshared an edited picture of the pair he had posted on his Instagram.
The 25-year-old also idolised the Kardashians — hence the alias he is widely renowned by — and other reality TV stars like Snooki who all have, in the past, recognised him to some degree.

With the future seemingly well-mapped for the Zimbabwean-born creative, some have found it hard to fathom the scale of despair he may have suffered in silence to pull the plug on a bright and colourful life.
