Well-known South African actress and singer Letoya Makhene says she feels abused by her estranged wife, businesswoman Lebo Keswa, speaking to the media about their failed marriage.
This after Lebo spoke to various publications including the publication regarding what led to their separation after announcing their split in June.
Through her publicist, Letoya said she had shifted her focus to her family and was unfazed by Lebo telling her side of the story.
“The reason most women stay in abusive relationships is due to the fear of being further victimised. Many lose their lives. Lebo is using the media to continue her abuse. She has been going around to all the media houses in South Africa, and she can continue for as long as she likes. I chose to end our marriage, and my only focus right now is my music and my family.”
Lebo, however, says she only wants to close the chapter of their failed marriage and labels Letoya a pathological liar.
The publication is in possession of the letter Lebo sent to Letoya’s family on dissolving her marriage in February this year and Letoya’s response in April.
The letter from Lebo reads:
This letter serves to inform you that I am dissolving my marriage to your daughter Letoya Makhene for the following reasons:
– When I married Letoya the family made me pay lobola for Letoya, her mother, her children and her dlozis only to find out in the marriage that Letoya has not completed her initiation and this has compromised me financially as I have been subjected to numerous encounters in paying for her to finish her initiation. Letoya and the family were not truthful to my family.
– Letoya Makhene cheated on me on two occasions with a Nigerian man, sleeping with him in exchange for drugs.
– Two weeks after Letoya cheated with the married man, I told her to leave my house and she came to your home in Tladi, only for her to again cheat with a lesbian woman from your area.
– I have been physically assaulted by Letoya on three occasions, even burning me with hot water in the process, and the only family consulted with was her father, Blondie Makhene, who asked for forgiveness on her behalf. At the time I stupidly forgave her and did not take any legal steps outside filing reports with the law.
– Letoya has destroyed both the homes we’ve lived in. Breaking windows and burning curtains at my grandmother’s home and breaking furniture at our home.
– Letoya Makhene refusing to go to mental institution after a qualified medical practitioner instructed her to go to a mental institution to seek professional help and diagnosing her with alcoholism.
– For the financial mess Letoya has left me in regarding her dlozi work and her past life. From her 1.4-million-rand home debt to her children’s school fees and attorneys.
