Have you been wondering where is Bongani Fassie and what he is doing with his life?
In case you forgot him, Bongani Fassie who is 36 years old, is the son of late singer and legend Brenda Fassie. Till this day Mzansi listens to Brenda Fassie’s music and with the massive fame acquired by his mom, it put a lot of pressure on Bongani. He worked on some music but felt like his mother’s shoes were to big to fill.
After his mother passed away, he fell into a dark depression, contemplated suicide and got heavily involved with drugs and alcohol to cope. He then took a break from music six years ago to heal and focus on being a father of three children. And currently he is changing his life for the best and is on step four of his 12 step program to be completely clean from drugs.
Bongani has been away from the limelight for a long time and clearly he was missed. Bongani has been given the opportunity to set the record straight about everything, how his mother passed away, he claims that it was not due to a drug overdose like most people speculated and he is going to address everything we didn’t know about his life.
Bongani Fassie is finding his way back into the entertainment industry and has his own reality TV show that was aired last year on DSTV, Moja Love Channel. Hopefully we get to see more of him in the limelight.
