In recent interviews, Lebo Keswa, the ex-wife of former Generations: The Legacy actress Letoya Makhene, has sparked conversation on social media.
Keswa has been candid about their relationship and subsequent divorce, sharing details that have left many people surprised.
A Personal Confession: ‘I Made Her My Project’
During an interview on the Engineer Your Life Podcast, Keswa made a shocking revelation about her personal life.
She admitted that after the divorce, she realized she had been neglecting herself for years.
“I bought myself underwear for the first time this year after we parted ways,” she said, explaining that for four years, she had been using the same ones.
This confession highlights how deeply Keswa had immersed herself in the relationship, even to the point of losing sight of her own well-being.
“I’m the type of person who changes my underwear every three to six months,” she added.
“But I looked at mine early this year and thought… how did I let this happen?
Meanwhile, she was getting new ones all the time, buying them online.”
Claims of Neglect and Betrayal
Keswa also revealed that she had made Makhene, a sangoma and actress, her “project” during their relationship, pouring all her energy into her partner.
However, she now admits this focus on Makhene came at a high personal cost.
The businesswoman further alleged that Makhene was unfaithful during their time together, which contributed to her own struggles with depression.
Keswa didn’t hold back her feelings about Makhene, calling her ex-wife a “f**k up” and suggesting that Makhene needed to take a hard look at herself.
She also claimed that Makhene is a “fake gobela” (a spiritual leader), raising doubts about her ex’s authenticity in that role.
Clearing Her Name
According to TimesLIVE, Keswa has been on a mission to clear her name after feeling that Makhene had tarnished her reputation post-divorce.
This public defense of her character has led to a series of interviews where she continues to share personal details about their relationship.
“I bought myself underwear for the first time this year after we parted ways,” Keswa repeated, driving home how much she had neglected herself in favor of her ex.
Social Media Reactions: The ‘Breakup Tour’ Commentary
Keswa’s public remarks have not gone unnoticed by social media users, who have coined the term “breakup tour” to describe her recent interviews.
Many believe she is airing grievances and processing her feelings about the divorce through these public appearances.
One Twitter user, @_FentseM, commented: “It’s like every day she realizes just how badly Letoya treated her and can’t believe the audacity.” Another user, @v_bonna, remarked, “Breakups will rock you, you need to be strong, otherwise you’ll end up touring.”
Others, like @ThobekaNkalanga, joked about the oddity of hearing that someone hadn’t bought underwear in four years: “We are being told she hasn’t bought underwear in 4 years.”
What’s Next for Lebo Keswa?
As Keswa continues to share more about her past relationship with Makhene, it’s unclear what her next steps will be.
Some wonder if this “breakup tour” will continue, while others are curious to see how Makhene might respond.
For now, it seems that Keswa is focused on reclaiming her narrative and ensuring her side of the story is heard.
