The reality show star won the hearts of many people with her flamboyant personality on Moja Love’s reality show Umndeni and he became a household name with a legion of fans.

@SRibons Bathong Malwandle! I still can't believe it and he was so young. RIP to him. I can't help but think about his brother, they were so close. Remember when uMaseko was kicking one of them out and they chose to leave together. RIP Malwandle."

@MaabuleM "Malwandle passed away before Reunion and fixing things with his dad. I hope the dad and his wife, agree to have the funeral at their home so that they can all find closure and peace #RipMalwandle  #Umndeni."
