The Skeem Saam star unveiled her pregnancy through a leading magazine, that covers motherhood issues all the way from pregnancy to early childhood.
Hellen is among celebrities who manage to keep their personal life private. The only thing that she posts about, is her constant travels. Even if she does so, she makes sure that she doesn’t share the identity of her son and husband. Hellen has however, been gracious enough to share her pregnancy news with her fans all over the world. She did so with the help of Batswadi Magazine, where she is shinning as a cover star. In the issue Hellen opens up about motherhood, identity and the beautiful parallels between her life and her on-screen character.
How cool is it that Hellen’s Skeem Saam character, Melita Kgomo is also expecting! Now she can connect with some of Melita’s emotions and execute the role brilliantly. The parallel has helped Hellen understand some of the emotions associated with the storyline, while giving her an opportunity to approach the character with greater empathy.
“A birthday, a beautiful surprise and a new chapter of motherhood! ✨
As South Africans follow Melita’s pregnancy journey on Skeem Saam, the woman behind the character has been quietly experiencing the same journey off-screen!
In an exclusive pregnancy reveal with Batswadi Magazine, actress Hellen Motsuki shares that she’s expecting her second child, reflecting on motherhood, identity and the beautiful parallels between her life and her on-screen character.
“For me, becoming is ongoing. I’m becoming a mother of two while continuing to become the best version of myself.”
Happy birthday, Hellen! Here’s to a beautiful becoming. 🤍
