Friends and family of media personality and journalist, Kuli Roberts gathered at a memorial service which was held at the Birchwood hotel in Johannesburg where they paid their last respect to bubbling journalist whom many said was a lover of life.

 

 

 

 

The 49-year old media personality, Kuli Roberts has not been well for some time, and she started making headlines over her drastic loss of weight last year.

When she posted her photos on social media looking very sickly, some argued that it was a mere call for help. Although she has not been well, she kept on pushing her projects. She collapsed while working on another show and she never made it alive.

Kuli Roberts will also be remembered as someone who believed in helping others. She tried in her best abilities to educate people about albinism and calling for an end to traditional practices that discriminate those who live with albinism.

Kuli acted in several productions, most recently in the Netflix original movie Angeliena, and co-hosted several popular radio and TV shows including What Not To Wear, The Real Goboza, TrendingSA and Kaya FM’s breakfast show with the late radio legend Bob Mabena.

She was also a journalist at Fair Lady, Drum, You and Sunday World.
