“She was said to be very surprised as he was still determined to keep on acting but wanted a bit more money. Money matters are a problem in this game as Tony has left because he was not satisfied with his salary. Siyabonga Thwala had already started the story of being a part of the sport but that was not always the case for the money, ”said a source.
Brenda has already started filming and will be appearing on screens soon.
