"My only question in this Khanyi Mbau situation. Is this the healing process… or seyipholile manje (is she healed)?"

@Mapiano_Piano said:

"She was never the same after leaving a man in Dubai. Sister has been applying everything on her face including mpesu to boost her looks gwa pala (she's failing) straight."

@MthiniJimmy replied:

"The only South African who updates her identity document every 5 years."

@Mzala1684 responds to Phenduka:

"You just want to make her trend by sending trolls her way. I'm sure you are not that close naye to be concerned by her looks. Akajoli nawe (you are not her man)."

Khanyi Mbau opens up about her surgeries

The media personality said: "We first need to understand surgery and self-love have no relation. People have tried to cushion their discomfort about what they feel is taboo by labelling their projections and saying surgery is a result of a lack of self-love."

Khanyi continued to say that she was a naturally confident person and that any procedure she has had, has never been about self-love and self-confidence.

"I cannot also attach self-love to any needle or procedure. Self-love is not something you apply. Self-love is love. One needs to be and let live, and then love flows."

Mbau further explained that she believes cosmetic surgery is an expression of self-love and freedom. She explained that her external body was not her final resting place, but rather a vessel that housed her soul.

"My character should define my values, not what I look like. The norms are not boxing confidence.”
