HE DOESN’T REGRET what he did with the money he won on the showBig Brother MzansiMandla Hlatshwayo who won this program more than 10 years ago.
Mandla said that he used the money he received from winning the show to do material things, such as buying a house and a car, fixing up his mother’s house, and using it for music, as he also loved it.
In a video that went viral on X, Mandla revealed that although the money is gone, the things he did with it are still visible.
“People now despise me and say that I spent millions of money but I have nothing. I have no regrets about the money I won in this program as I did a lot and until now my mother’s house is still standing. But I had to be able to continue with my life, until the money ran out as I am now working normal jobs,” said Mandla.
He said he is now working a normal job and his health is going well.
“Even though unexpected money came in and other plans that I thought I would make with the amount of money that I expected were disrupted, I was able to sit down and reorganize the money. Before my plans came, I said that I would put it away, and then live on the one that will be born from the large amount that I have saved. Because of the unexpected influx of money, I was forced to use what we have,” he said.
He also opened up about the lady Lexi van Nierkerk he met on the show and said that they are no longer in love, but he has no regrets about falling in love with her as they now have two sons.
Falling in love with Lexi, he said, gave birth to a program about their lives that started when they left the Big Brother house, which made them be in the public eye and work with different companies that produce television programs.
“But the end of this program, made me realize that people forget it easily. We also soon stopped being in the public eye, some people clearly don’t know us anymore as we are no longer seen on television,” he said.
He said he still wants to return to music as it is something he loves.
