In South Africa, many women either have personal accounts of violence or have witnessed or personally know of abuse. No matter who makes the claim, it is always treated seriously.

The daily Sunday World published claims that Letoya Makhene-Pulumo, a former Generations actress, was being mistreated and that police vehicles had accompanied the actress to retrieve her possessions from her wife’s house. Letoya has addressed the allegations and labeled them as lies.

She conveyed her dissatisfaction with the news reporter who authored the article. She addressed the accusations on her Instagram account and said that they were harming the reputations of both her and her wife, who try to assist women in leaving violent situations.

She said, “I also discovered a profound sense of calm in her life and won’t let anyone take it away. Rumors can hurt the persons involved and lead to negative outcomes. For more articles, don’t forget to like, share, comment, or follow.
