He's the kind of guy that makes women look twice when he walks into a room.
But Kay Sibiya has eyes for only one woman: Judie Kama, his girlfriend of three years.
The actor is smitten with Judie and their baby and now he’s ready to share them with DRUM readers. They walk into our offices, pre-coronavirus, with their youngest, Doxa, who’s eight months old.
Judie touches up her makeup while Kay decides to change his son’s outfit for the shoot before changing his own. Kay (32), as fans will know, is best known for his breakout role as Ayanda Mdletshe in Uzalo. He’s played a number of other roles, including a lead in the 2019 Netflix drama Agent, which also aired on SABC1 in February, but fans still call him Ayanda. Being in the limelight means lots of attention from fans and women are always trying to get him to notice them.
But Judie says she’s very secure in their relationship. She’s a makeup artist, a DJ, an influencer, has a hair business and also runs a promotions business.
“I am not in the limelight and I don’t want to be,” she says. “That’s his space. When we got together he was in the entertainment industry and that’s not something I want to change.
“I will admit, though, that I am a jealous person. Very often girls make moves on him and I can’t stop them. What I appreciate is how he handles it. There will always be girls, but he respects me, our relationship and our family. He lets the girls know he is not interested.
“The other thing I appreciate about my man is when he is away, he is gone – but when he is home, he is really present and is involved 100% in the children’s lives.”
