According to TshisaLIVE, Annie’s mother, Nkele Mashaba kept the news of her daughter’s matric date until October 1.
She said her daughter loved the media personality for a “very long time” and followed his private life and music career religiously.
Speaking about her daughter’s bullying, Nkele encouraged other mothers to be there for their children and make them feel comfortable.
“I’ve helped her deal with it, that there will always be people who will try bring you down. At some point our children should learn to be strong even if it’s not easy and teach them to talk and open up to their loved ones.
“We should also relate to our children, open up to them and make them comfortable enough to speak up.”
