Reality TV star Tebogo Mekgwe also known as “Pinky Girl” has acknowledged the lessons she has learnt from her famous cousin, media personality Bonang Matheba.
The reality star rose to fame after appearing on the Being Bonang reality TV show. As she launches her YouTube channel, she is taking with her the lessons she learnt from Bonang despite the recent rumoured conflict between them.
During a recent interview with Bonolo “Bee Sting” Molosiwa on Kaya 959, Pinky Girl said if there’s anything she learnt from her cousin it is consistency, an important trait she hopes to apply in her life and career.
“I learnt a lot (from her). Consistency. You need to tell yourself, this is what I want to achieve and do it. As long as you put it in your mind… you are going to achieve it,” she told Bee Sting.
The IT specialist-turned-DJ also opened up about losing her father.
“I have been home for six months after losing my dad in October year… that’s why I’m back in Pretoria but I’m coming back to Joburg because my life is in Joburg,” shared the star.
The reality star went on to explain that taking time away from the limelight has helped her deal with the loss.
“It’s tough guys… And people don’t know that thing of losing someone dear to your heart.
“I’m okay now. I’ve survived it all and I’m taking care of my family.”
This comes after Pinky Girl’s big announcement that she is launching her very own YouTube channel tilted “PinkStar.”
“I’m very excited about my YouTube channel. PinkStar is going to be all about me Pinky Girl, my pink world, my family, my friends, my work,” she wrote on her Twitter timeline.
