Popular House of Zwide actress Matshepo Maleme rubbishes social media reports that she’s ill.

Matshepo Maleme’s House of Zwidecharacter, Rea Molapo died from cancer in the e.tv fashion telenovela.

Style You reports that people assumed Maleme has cancer in real life like her character and began spreading fake news.

“I have figured that once you start sharing your most personal information, confidential information with the public, you’ll have to do that all your life. The public has no business diagnosing people.”

“I have never tested for all those things and yet someone, unknown to me, just decides on top of their head that this person is ill.”

Maleme adds that people who are spreading fake news about her are sabotaging future possibilities and prospects for her.

“No one wants to touch you. Thinking that you won’t be able to do the job,” she says.

“It’s unfair to me. It’s criminal. It’s just plain wrong not to me alone, but my family as well.”

Matshepo adds that she’s well and good and felt like people wanted to mess with her. They almost ruined her future with fake news.
