There is no denying her star appeal because Thuli is a natural in front of the camera. When she is not on set, Thuli is busy on the decks as a DJ. Her travels often leave us green with envy. Let's now learn more from this Thulisile Phongolo's biography.
Born in the township of Soweto in Johannesburg, South Africa, on 22 January 1994, Thuli Phongolo’s age, as of 2022, is 28. She was a confident child who loved to dance for her family.

In 2019, Thuli Phongolo posted a picture of her mother on her Instagram page to celebrate Mother’s Day.
Thuli is not the only child as she has a younger sister and brother.
Working as an actress did not divert Thuli’s attention from her studies. After she completed her studies at Allen Glen High School, Thuli joined the University of Johannesburg, where she graduated with a degree in strategic marketing from the University of Johannesburg.
