While others picked on her singing Miss Independent while keeping the Kolisi surname.
“Miss Independent… Last name ‘Kolisi’ okay,” wrote Nkaisana_m.
“Why she kept his surname?” wrote Keegan.
Rachel previously addressed this in an interview with 947FM, stating that she kept her surname because of her kids. The author and director has two kids – Nicholas (12) and Keziah (9) with Siya.
“My children share the same surname as me, and travelling with my children, because they are brown, is already a big challenge. Sometimes I get stopped at gates and people want to double-check certain things, so it would be a really big challenge for me, so I’m keeping my surname,” she said.
