The Queen actress and new mom Zenande Mfenyane came forward to speak about the societal pressure to get married and have children.
Before Zenande had her baby, she was constantly asked when she would be having children and settling down. The pressure was on and it was uncomfortable.
Taking to social media, Zenande explained how she was told that her clock was ticking and she might be running out of time, and how this stressed her out. Zenande feels people should back off and stop putting so much pressure.
Zenande stuck to her feelings and listened to God, not those pressuring her, and she is grateful that she did.
“I was told “ole fetwa” “your biological clock is ticking” “you can forget about finding love” and I chose to mute those negative voices and chose to listen to what God was saying about my life. I’m glad I chose to listen to God, coz look at my life now.”
Fans took to the comment section to share their stories in agreeance with Zenande.
“Just like those who think that when you have a child it's the end of the road for you. I chose to listen to God as early as I was still in high school.”
“God is great. Its always those one who dont have much to show for their life that say such things. I know what that feels like "kgante o ba le ngwana neng?" that time I just finished my 2nd degree, chose to have a long engagement before getting married and starting a family.”

The Queen actress shared a few pearls of wisdom on fake friends. Zenande took to Twitter a few days ago to tell her followers to walk away from people who don't appreciate them. Sis said:
"When someone shows you how little you mean in their life, believe them. Stop trying to foster. They are never going to love and appreciate you the way you love and appreciate them. Know your tribe, take care of your tribe."
