‘My Mother Is My Mother'

SHE’S one of the most in-demand actresses in Mzansi and is used to seeing stories about herself in the media – but recently an article shocked her to the core and forced her to change the way she lives. 

Nomzamo Mbatha has hired two bodyguards after receiving death threats and menacing messages from people who claim she isn’t who she says she is. 

The drama has put the 26-year-old Isibaya star under a lot of strain – but mostly, she’s furious. 

It all started when a woman called Elizabeth Mbatha from Mpumalanga “reached out” to her in a Sunday newspaper claiming that Nomzamo was her daughter. 

The film and TV beauty denies this in the strongest terms. “I’m the spitting image of my mother and father, so I don’t know what daughter that woman is talking [about],” she tells us.

She tried to laugh off the claims, but things quickly spiralled out of control after people alleging to be Elizabeth’s relatives started threatening her life.

“I had to get security for myself,” she says. “I don’t know how real the death threats are.”

According to reports, Elizabeth warned Nomzamo she’d be “cursed” if she didn’t recognise her “real” family.
