PICS: See how grown up Khanyi Mbau’s daughter looks now

Khanyi Mbau is widely regarded as one of the most popular actresses in South Africa at the moment. She is well-known for her adaptability, her fearlessness, and the natural inborn talent that she possesses.

It is sometimes difficult to believe that the stunning actress, who has participated in dozens of productions, has managed to keep her appearance so fresh and young, especially considering that she is the mother of a child who is in their teenage years.

This article takes a look at Khanyi Mbau’s life outside of the set and discusses how much there is to know about her daughter, including who her baby daddy is and how she raises her children in a liberal manner, which some people don’t appear to love.

Khanukani Mbau, or more commonly known as Cannes, is Khanyi Mbau’s stunning daughter. The young adolescent was born in 2007, but the day of the week on which she actually arrived has not been disclosed.

Over the course of her life, we have witnessed Khanukani transform from a sweet little girl into a stunning young lady who appears to have inherited her mother’s attractive features.

Khanyi Mbau is quite the model liberal parent who is all about giving her daughter full independence. While most mothers are very protective of their children and love to control almost every detail of their lives, Khanyi Mbau is all about giving her daughter full control over her own life.

During an episode of the hit reality show Young, Rich & Famous, Khanyi revealed that she does not reside in the same house as her daughter, who resides independently in an apartment next door to her mother’s home. The show’s title refers to the popular reality show.

After revealing that she allows her daughter to do whatever she pleases, Khanyi’s parenting style came under some scrutiny, and some people found this to be problematic. The talented actress, when asked to defend the parenting decisions she’s made, revealed that she allows her daughter a lot of freedom so that she can teach her daughter to be independent.

Like many celebrities’ children, Khanyi Mbau’s daughter has also been put under the public’s microscope. As 2021 ended, a rumour that the teenager was reportedly with child spread like wildfire.

The rumour began after Khanyi Mbau’s half-brother and popular social media influencer Lasizwe Dambuza shared a video of the family trying to take a photo. In the video, Khanukani was trying hard to cover up her belly which was a bit bulgy.

It appears that the rumours were not true and Khanyi Mbau has not yet earned the title of grandmother. Following the rumours, Khanyi shared photos of her daughter instantly silencing the rumour mongers.

The father of Khanyi Mbau’s daughter

Khanyi Mbau’s baby daddy and ex-husband is called Mandla Mthembu. Khanyi and Mandla met Mandla at Divine Lounge when she was only 19 years old and he was 30 years her senior and filthy rich.

The two got married in 2006 but their marriage was not successful and they split less than two years together. In a past interview, Khanyi Mbau revealed that her relationship with Mandla had been very toxic. She accused him of cheating on her and physically assaulting her even when she was very pregnant with their daughter.

Although Mandla reportedly had several affairs during his marriage, it appears that he had a soft spot for sensational Zodwa Wabantu and there are speculations that Zodwa Wabantu’s son might be half-siblings with Khanyi Mbau’s daughter as she dated the faded tycoon around the time when she conceived.

Shortly after Mandla Mthembu and Khanyi Mbau divorced, the once flashy tycoon faded from the limelight and he hasn’t been heard from in a long time. Some sources believe that he went broke. –
