South African actor Presley Chweneyagae has found himself in the news once again, and this time it’s not for any acting accolades. The River actor has been accused by the mother of his child, Alletta Somfula, of not providing financial support for their son.

In a desperate attempt to seek help, Alletta wrote to Moja Love’s Papgeld, a show that helps mothers seek financial support from their child’s father. The episode featuring Presley aired on April 2, and viewers have been talking about it ever since.

Alletta and Presley share a 16-year-old son, who apparently is only receiving financial support from one parent. Alletta has expressed her frustration with Presley, stating that all he does is ask her parents for her child to visit him and does not provide any financial assistance. Despite the accusations, Presley has remained quiet on the matter. This is not the first time that Presley has found himself in the news for the wrong reasons. He has previously been accused of gender-based violence, and his name was also dragged into the NLC corruption scandal that has been making headlines in South Africa.Many viewers were struck by Presley’s silence during the episode, with some suggesting that it was a smart move on his part not to engage with Alletta publicly. Others have suggested that Presley may choose to communicate with Alletta through lawyers and may even consider suing the production company for ambushing him without his permission.

Alletta has stated that she is not a bitter baby mama but simply wants what is best for her child. It remains to be seen whether Presley will step up and provide the financial support that his son needs.
