Nhlanhla Nciza On How Her Son Saved Her During Bereavement and Divorce. We all go through some tough times in life. But the most important thing is how we deal with those hardships. Looking at how other people emerged from the darkest clouds can also bring us some sort of comfort that we too, can win the battle. Someone like Nhlanhla Nciza, is a perfect example that, even the worst situations will definitely pass.
The award winning musician and fashion designer, has experienced some of the toughest situations in life. In 2004, pregnant Nhlanhla was involved in a car accident, and unfortunately lost one of her unborn twin babies. Sadly her remaining twin daughter, Zinathi, tragically passed away in 2009 after a tragic car accident. Zinathi had been traveling with her grandmother when the accident occurred. Their vehicle hit a tree which led to little Zinathi sustaining serious head and neck injuries she did not recover from.
Nhlanhla was dealt another blow when her marriage crumbled. On June 20th, 2019, she took to social media to announce her split from her music mogul husband Thembinkosi “TK” Nciza. Nhlanhla said the decision to end their union was amicable and assured fans that they would remain on good terms. Despite all these tragedies, Nhlanhla remains one of the most calm and inspirational celebrities in SA.
Where does she get all the strength? Nhlanhla credits her son Luvuyo as the reason she manages to get up everyday and face the world. She took to Instagram to share a heartfelt open letter that she penned Luvuyo to appreciate the positive effect he has on her life.
“Since I couldn’t sleep 2nd night in a row, I decided to write a young
“open love letter to my son Luvuyo” . I hope when he is old enough to read it with understanding he will know just how much he means to me❤️??,” Nhlanhla said.
“Luvuyo my little brave gift from God, you my baby are my sunshine, my joy and my happy place. You are the reason I wake up every and strive to be a better person than I was,the reason I want to do good and the reason I’m excited about the future ❤️
You my son are the reason I’m alive. You saved my life not once but twice already in your young life and because of you, no one can ever stand before me and question God’s love for me ??.
In 2009 when the heavens gained your sister Zinathi I thought it was the end of me, the pain and the hurt was so deep, so intense and so unbearable, I never thought I’d be able to survive another day. But when my Heavenly Father saw my pain He sent me you Luvuyo, my Joy? and I can safely say that the best and the happiest time of my life was when I was pregnant with you. I just could not wait to meet you, to hold you in my arms and kiss you❤️. And when you finally came, I could not stop looking at you, you were so perfect , my perfect gift from God. You healed my heart and I could smile and laugh again, you brought sunshine and so much joy back into my life and for that I’m forever thankful for you❤️??.
You came to my rescue again in 2019 when your dad and I got divorced, once again you saved my life. One of the worst years of my life. I was in such a dark place , so broken, so depressed and in so much pain that at times it felt too much to bear . And you my son, just a thought of you or a look at your face brought back a little glimpse of light back into my life, and I hung on to that little spark of light with my dear life. And just like that, you brought me back to life . You gave me a reason to fight, to get back on my feet and to never give up.
You literally breathed life back into my body and I will never forget that for as long as I live.
I want you to know that you are not only my son but you are my hero too. I owe the fact that I’m out here and living my best life to you….”
