Actor Sicelo Buthelezi responded to a post on Twitter claiming the Mzansi Magic’s Gomora star was turning 40 this year.

Sicelo responded to Twitter user Chris Excel who posted, β€œSo Teddy from Gomora is turning 40 years this year.”
Fans immediately reacted to Chris’s post with shock and others saying Sicelo must be taking good care of himself. This is what they were commenting.

β€œHe doesn't drink alcohol beke le beke like ma 2k. They look like Kimberly.”
β€œBut that's not his real age. I'm 100% sure he was born somewhere 1997-1999. So he's between 23 and 25.”
β€œEhhhh did you say 40? Like whole 4 decades?”
Sicelo also replied to Chris saying, β€œAowa @ChrisExcel102 wang’polaya now aiii ngeke chief ima kancan tuu (No Chris you are killing me, wait a little bit chief).”
His fans asked him how old he was. He did not respond but according to Stlyeyou7, Teddy as we know him from his role in Gomora was born in March 1985, meaning he will turn 37- years-old this year 2022.

Many might be confused because when you look at him you would swear he is a teenager. Adding to this confusion is his role. In the telenovela he plays a role of a teenage boy who is still attending school. Teddy is according to a soap turning 19 this year and Sicelo will turn 37. Viewers are still surprised at how young the actor looks and that he could pass off as a teenager in real life.

Seekay as he is called by many was introduced to us in 2020  when the telenovela started.  We can say he is one of the lead actors who always manages to cheer and steals hearts of the viewers in each episode.  Even though currently viewers do not like him much because of his behaviour towards on screen mother Zodwa played by Sannah Mchunu. Lately Teddy has been behaving like a spoilt brat. Teddy seems to be taking everyone’s side except of his mother.
