She revealed in her blog that she grew up with her grandmother; she only knew who her mother was when she was older. All she knew was her parents rejected her the day she was conceived; Lungelihle reunited with her mother when she was nine. Growing up, I didn’t understand why I didn’t live with my mother or father; as a kid, the only reason you think of is the only thing that would make sense. That they didn’t want you, so, unfortunately, that’s where the foundation started, I moved back with my mom at nine, and I felt I didn’t know her, so it was hard getting used to that, and with that came a lot of silent struggles, till the beginning of this year.
