Sonia also clarified that she was not referring to her former husband Lesley Sedibe when she said in her statement that she refuses to raise a man like his abusive father.
The former Generations actress shared that she had Donell way before she met Sedibe when she was 28 year old.
"I did not mention names, I did not speak about my ex-husband. I would never do that to Lesley. I was talking about Donell’s father but people just I assumed I was talking about Lesley."For the last two days Sonia has been applauded by Mzansi for publicly denouncing her son's criminal acts.
In the past Sonia has fiercely advocated against gender-based violence based on her own history being a victim of abuse.
