Family

The actress was born and raised in Rockville Soweto. She was an outspoken and fearless child. Her interest in acting began when she was still young as she would act out the movies and theatre plays and her father would watch her. Growing up, she had a full household with 20 cousins; they did not have much, but they were a happy family. She, however, wanted to be a nurse when she grew up mainly because many of her family members were nurses and that back then, black people could only do a limited number of professions. She never thought she would become an actress or a musician since there were no acting and musical schools during the apartheid period. Education
