International actress and multi-award winner Thuso Mbedu took to Twitter to confirm her age and marital status after rumours surfaced from one Twitter user who decided to discuss her age, children and marital status.
The conversation sparked after a Twitter user said he was extremely disappointed to know that the Women King star was actually older than he thought, along with another Twitter user stating that the actress is married.
In her most recent movie “Woman King”, Thuso is portrayed as a 19-year old warrior named Nawi.
