Sonia Mbele and Leslie have two kids together, and they live with the star. She told the publication that they rarely have direct contact, and the kids get picked up by a car when visiting.

Mbele flatly denied this allegation, saying Leslie does not enter her home, and they have no communication, outside of sending text messages.

"Leslie does not enter my house. When we speak, we text each other. Unless sent bewitchment via text. I don't speak to them, I go to church, I do Bible studies. Unless I bewitch him using the name of Jesus Christ," she cheekily said.

Mbele then stated that she is a preacher, further stressing her point that she did not use muthi.

"How do you bewitch a person you have not seen in ages?" she asked.

Briefly News spoke with a traditional healer, Bab' Ngobeni, who shared how muthi works and how it is used. Ngobeni claimed that some muthi does not need direct or close contact with a person.

Sonia speaks on marriage

The star, who has recently left the acting world, was a guest on Dineo Ranaka's YouTube podcast, Sexx 'n Stuff, where she touched on getting divorced and finding love again.

“While I was there [marriage] and waking up to the dawn of who are you, who did I marry, and living with that person every day and realising this is an 'MF'. In the world, though, I'm in my space with my children, trying to say he is the problem, and everyone is going you can't be right. Praying that one day my children, not everyone else, but my children, wake up to see him for who and what he really is,” she told the former radio host.

She further spoke about the reasons her marriage ended, saying the signs were there. She has since found new love, and she compares her past relationship to her current one.
