Being in the entertainment industry comes with someone being well known and gaining attention from the public, which can be both a good and a bad thing because they have to deal with people from the public being involved in their personal matters and, in some cases, lying about what happens in their personal lives, which could tarnish their brand and their name because they get critised and get publicly shamed and attacked.
This is something that has been happening to South African actress Katlego Danke, who is known to be someone who does not appear in the news for bad publicity and does not talk much about what happens in her personal life; she is only mostly known for the work that she does as an actress. For the past few days, her name has been dragged through the mud and lied about after she was accused of having an affair with South African billionaire Patrice Motsepe and also expecting her second child with him.
Many people called her a home wrecker after a social media user shared the news and said that she was breaking up Patrice Motsepe’s marriage, which is something that she should not be proud of. But after a few days, the billionaire released a statement saying that the news was not true about him and Katlego Danke, and Katlego Danke also responded that the matter would be taken very seriously and that those who spread the news would be sued for tarnishing her name. Katlego Danke said that papers will soon be served to those who have been identified as responsible for the rumor that they spread about her on social media, which resulted in her being accused by the public.
