SA saw the peak of Nonhle’s career in 2007. She hosted the most popular TV shows, also, she bagged deals as a brand ambassador while touring the world. Unfortunately, she lost her glitz to her ego.
During the interview on Showmax’s Unfollowed, she opened up about the rise and fall of her life as a celebrity.
“It was a battle of myself, my ego, my pride. I lost sense of who God was in my life because now I found myself fighting people. It was for respect. I thought this was the only way that I could get this respect because I needed to step up and have people fear me, it was as if I could not even put my phone down.”
Nonhle got candid about how her ego ruined her relationship with people.
“I couldn’t be anywhere and be present with people. I was so consumed with what everything and everyone was always saying because of my ego. The ego was running with me,” she said.
The 40-year-old actress admitted she became a monster who was self-absorbed.
“I lost a lot of endorsements, and that means I kind of lost money, maybe 10 million in one go. I lost a lot of money.”
Nonhle has been open about her journey to finding herself and going back to God through facebook and IG.
Kind-hearted individuals have sent their well-wishes to her. Also, they encouraged her to get back into the showbiz business.
