Mandy Malebo Opened Up About Her Depression

She once shared a video on her Instagram story, telling followers about the abuse she endured at home.

“My mom continues to defend Mondli, knowing very well the trauma I’ve had to experience in this broken relationship with my dad, all because they could not sort out their issues and could not voice out the things that they hate. Mondli has seen his child once. My child has only seen his dad once. And my mom continues to defend him, all because he sends money,” said Malebo.

She also claimed that she was beaten up by her mother the previous night.

“And I got beat up. My scalp hurt, my mom pulled me so hard by my hair. And then this morning my mother was so nice towards me and my son, why? Because she’s continuing to manipulate me. She wants to put me through this abuse over and over and I’m not going to be quiet about it. I’m not even going to be quiet about how sh*t Mondli is. All because he sends money, I’ve been made to believe that because he’s taking care of his child, he’s a good dad and a good person, but no, Mondli is sh*t. I am hurt, I am angry, I am depressed. I’m not going to be okay.”
