A Few days ago, singer and songwriter Siyabonga Radebe popularly known as Siya B scored a major acting gig, and it seems like this was also a life-changing gig for him.
Before scoring this gig, Siya had allegedly lost his car and according to his neighbours who spoke to Daily Sun, the comedian and actor had also moved back home.
His neighbors told the publication that they used to envy his life until he stopped appearing on TV. "He used to visit us eKasi, we wanted to live his life as he seemed to be doing very well but things changed. We stopped seeing him on TV and he moved back into the family home."
It was also alleged that Siya would be seen laughing and talking to himself on the street, but to his defence, The TV personality told the publication that as a singer and songwriter, he usually sings and rehearses his songs while walking on the streets. He added that maybe this is why people thought he was speaking alone.
"I am a writer, and I'd sometimes write a song and sing it while walking on the streets. Maybe my neighbours would see me singing and thought I was talking to myself," Siya told Daily Sun.
As a public figure, Siya has found himself having to over-explain himself now and again. Back in 2019, Siya had to clear the air following his split with his baby mama actress Lerato Mvelase. This after reports suggested that he is the one who ended their relationship.
"I have not been the best boyfriend or the best father. I have disappointed Lerato’s family and my own. I wish there was a way to go back in time and make different choices but what is done is done. There is no undoing it," he wrote.
"There is no going back. All I can do now is apologise and move forward, and hopefully learn to use these challenging times as an example and lesson in the future, and call myself out. Because God knows I went the wrong way for far too long this time around," he began his lengthy post.
He added that he was having a difficult time getting over their breakup and continued to apologize for everything. "I have never said this in public before but letting go of someone that you love and shared your life with is not an easy road to travel. Every day feels like the journey just began and will not end. No amount of alcohol, late nights out, and different girls can make the feeling of emptiness.
"I have tried and in these trying times I have made one mistake after another, and I have been so stubborn or too egotistical to admit that it is nobody else’s fault but my own. I have blamed everybody but myself and I am extremely sorry that it took this long for me to see," he wrote.
