“I don't think I was ready to get to that point of him going home to ask for my hand in marriage, because there were certain things he wouldn’t be able to do. We loved each other, we were best friends, even know he is still my bestie and unfortunately it didn't work out.
The actress is family-orientated and when asked about who she was dating she kept that a secret.
While detailing her journey on her recent production, Durban Gen, she said there were triggers.
Posting a video of her on the show, she wrote: “Shooting these hospital scenes was so close to my heart. And now they are affecting my family.
“I went all out bringing this to life as they always reminded of my late mother’s last days in hospital. How much she fought sickness, which was said to be cancer. She fought, hey. She honestly thought she would be better, kanti no, death was stronger than her. It was time.”
