    Personal life

On 10 July 2019, Small died in hospital at the age of 50, after suffering a heart attack while having drinks at The Harem, a strip club in Johannesburg.[4] Club co-owner, Jerome Saffi, confirmed that Small had collapsed while having drinks at the bar.[5] An autopsy revealed the cause of death as ischemic heart disease, and the police investigation into the circumstances surrounding his death revealed no suspicious circumstances.[6] [7] After seven months of dating, she married Paul Nel and the wedding ceremony took place on the 9 of October 2013. The couple have two children: Eve and Vincent. Paul is the owner of three businesses: Café Mexicho, Showco and Presentech.
