Leleti Khumalo recently spoke to Drum Magazine about her skin condition. She came to know that she had vitiligo at the age of 19.

“It was pure ignorance on my part. In fact, I didn’t even know what it was until K became pregnant.”

In 2012, the vitiligo took a strain on Leleti especially after the death of one of her triplets.

“I was left with too many questions – I cried, prayed and I blamed myself. It was a double tragedy for me as I had to deal with my skin condition at the same time.”

She has gained more strength from then. As she will be acting on e.tv’s latest show Imbewu, she has decided not to cover her white patches with makeup.

“I used to cover my white patches with makeup but for Imbewu I will not be covering it. People will see me without the makeup. My plan is to educate people about vitiligo but I also don’t want to do a half job. I’ll be doing educational talks on vitiligo and I’d obviously want the talks to have an impact,” Leleti said.
