Sonia Mbele, who is a producer of Real Housewives of Johannesburg and an actress in Blood & Water, reportedly ended up in the hospital after being overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, and fatigue, according to ZiMoja news.

 

The publication quoted a source who said that the ex-Generations star felt dizzy and fainted. She had to stay in the hospital for about two weeks and was released just two weeks before she went to the Real Housewives of Johannesburg launch.

“Thank God she was working from home that day, and her mother and helper were at her house, both had to spring into action.”

Mbele was still recuperating and reportedly sneaked out to her room upstairs to rest for a while during the launch. She also left the event as soon as it was over to avoid drawing attention to herself.
