Social Media Reacts to Mihlali Ndamase’s Open Letter About Her Relationship. Many of our celebrities prefer to keep their relationships private. Once there is trouble in paradise though, they put things out in the open.
This is the case with Mihlali Ndamase and Leeroy Sidambe. The two have been keeping things a bit on the down low, but now that they are fighting, they are airing their dirty laundry on social media. This started about a week ago, when Mihlali posted a cryptic picture of herself on Instagram. She had some bruises on her forehead, beneath one eye and inside her upper lip. She captioned the post, “Thank you, my angel. @leeroysidambe.”
Although the pictures were quickly deleted, this led to people assuming her partner Leeroy Sidambe is physically assaulting her. Sidambe then released a statement to clear his name. The businessman alleged that Mihlali is the one who wanted to stab him. Sidambe says Mihlali’s injuries were a result of him pushing her away when she wanted to hurt him. He also stated that Mihlali is violent whenever she is under the influence of substances he would rather not mention.
Now Mihlali has taken to social media with an open letter about their relationship. She admits that she was involved in a toxic relationship. According to Mihlali, their relationship started off verbally and emotionally harmful and matters quickly escalated to it being physically harmful. She however takes full responsibility for participating in a toxic relationship with Leeroy. Mihlali also emphasizes the importance of educating ourselves about the impact of GBV on individuals and families.
Social media users, however are not buying her story. Many feel she deserves it, more so, since it seems Leeroy left his ex wife Mary-Jay for her.
