Award-winning actor Bonko Khoza, who portrayed the character of Mqhele in The Wife seasons one and two, opens up about how he uses acting as therapyTshisaLIVE reports that the former The Wife actor and voice-over artist Bonko Khoza lived with depression and dealt with drugs before his acting break.

Khoza was in 2014 a small-time actor living with depression and dealing drugs from the back of his beetle car, reports the publication.

Khoza tells the publication that acting became therapy for him when he landed the role of Jabz in the film, Necktie Youth. The nightlife, the drugs went with the character Jabz, being in New York, being nominated alongside his idols and the success of the film showed him a light.

“Maybe acting is something that can help me. Navigating characters and using these characters as a release, and using the characters as a therapy, in a weird way is a healing process for me. It keeps me sane,” says Khoza.

 

WHY THE ACTOR LEFT ‘THE WIFE’
The talented actor Bonko admits that playing Mqhele Zulu on The Wife was one of the hardest characters he’s done.

“Committing to a guy like Mqhele from a psychological point of view and from an appearance point of view, there was work we had to do. Mqhele was hard-core. We built Mqhele so far from Bonko that I could spare myself, especially [because] he’s quite a traumatic character.”

Khoza exited the Showmax telenovela in August 2022 and got replaced by Uzalo and Shaka Ilembe star Wiseman Mncube.

“Mental health comes first for everybody. I wasn’t in a good space … was it the fame, workload or fatigue? I think it was a combination of things. I think the point is I didn’t see myself fit to deliver to the people who look up to me.”

Briefly reports that The Woman King actor and his wife Lesego Khoza this week welcomed their daughter to the world.

Khoza reveals that his wife and daughter are his biggest blessing and they’re having a good time with their daughter, learning parenthood, navigating parenthood, navigating their work, the balance of everything.

The former Orlando Pirates midfielder Linda Mntambo has once again proved that he doesn’t follow any trends when it comes to dress code. Ideally, the skirt was meant to be worn by women, but nowadays things have changed. Since, anyone can wear whatever that they want as long as they’re fine with it, then other people’s opinions doesn’t matter. However, social media will definitely have individual scrutinizing certain people’s dress codes as they feel it shouldn’t be socially acceptable. Since, men are supposed to be wearing pants nor shorts rather than skirts as that doesn’t fit under the whole alpha male world.

 

 

 

Mntambo has been a fashionista for sometime and even grew his Instagram following in order to attract other brands into working with him. By the looks of things, it doesn’t bother him that his team mates at Sekhukhune United are not used to a male that wears dresses. As he pictured leaving their training session in a dress. Since, he came wearing too and shared the same training room with his squad. Also, they had to accept his rather unorthodox fashion that most footballers wouldn’t recommend. Even though some players are into the limelight, outside their professional life.

The 34-year-old midfielder knows that his career is coming to an end and he’ll have to look forward into his life after football. He’s definitely treating his social media platforms like its business as he’s promoting his work too. One thing for sure, he loves his inner circle and that makes his grounded too. As he posts his family and friends every now and then. It gets to show that during his injury, he’ll get all the support he needs to recover.

So she is one person who has been Blessed with a nice body structure, a beautiful face, yes people can say it is because that people that have got money can alter their bodies to be what they want to be, they can do all sort of things in order for them to avoid getting old, but at certain times some people that have good money tried that and they still couldn’t avoid getting old. So I think this is a matter of her genes, she is so beautiful, not just beautiful but also she sings music that builds the communities.
