Nelson Mandela's grandson humiliated in love triangle scandal with French bride he broke the law to marry

Nelson Mandela's grandson and political heir has been embroiled in a love triangle scandal involving his second wife.

The relationship started badly enough when Mandla Mandela, 38, was accused of bigamy when he wed French teenager Anais Grimaud while still married to his first wife.

Now the Frenchwoman has left him after the South African political chief discovered that the couple's baby son was born to one of his own brothers.

The cuckold scandal is just the latest in a series of controversies involving Mandla Mandela, whom Nelson Mandela anointed as his political heir.

As well as being a South African MP, Mandla Mandela is a chief in the important Thembu tribe and handles much of Nelson Mandela's legacy.

More significant, however, is that as grandson of the universally respected 94-year-old he is the public face of the Mandela family.

The 38-year-old politics graduate married his first wife, Tanda Mabunu-Mandela, at a traditional ceremony in 2004.

Six years later he married Mme Grimaud, who is from the island of Reunion, a French overseas territory in the Indian Ocean.

On marriage Madame Grimaud gained the tribal name Nkosikazi Nobubele Mandela.

The couple's son was born in September last year and was named Qheya by Nelson Mandela himself.

The marriage was marred however, by the fact that at the time they tied the knot Mandla remained officially married to his first wife.

Today, however, a statement issued on behalf of the politician revealed details of the explosive end to the Grimaud marriage.

'The Mandela family has sent my wife Nkosikazi Nobubele Mandela (nee Anais Grimaud) back to her home after it was discovered she has been having an affair with one of my brothers', the statement read.

'I confirm this affair resulted in a son that Nkosikazi Nobubele gave birth to in 2011. I can also confirm DNA tests conducted have confirmed the child is not mine.
