For the first time, actress Mona Monyane has talked about the pain of losing her second child.
A few months after the birth of her first child, she was hit with criticism when she announced she was expecting again. When she lost the baby, she decided to keep it to herself because of the criticism earlier received.
Mona spoke about her second child’s death on YouTube talk show, CWNH Hosted By Wendy.
“What happened [is] that I haven’t made public the death of my second child‚” she revealed.
“The pregnancy was already under so much criticism and I had to find myself defending one of the most beautiful things I have ever experienced‚ which is motherhood‚” she added.
“When within seven days my baby passes in my arms. I am sitting there going‚ ‘Okay‚ what is going on?’ So we are talking about spirituality and I am thinking‚ I am like‚ ‘God‚ where are you? I don’t know’. It was too sudden.”
At the time of her baby’s birth, Mona took to social media to announce it with excitement.
“Amazulu a vulekile (the heavens have opened). We welcome our second daughter into the world‚ Amaza Wamazulu Skenjana born 18:52pm‚ 16 November 2017. You have completed our home. Re leboha Mohau le Ramasedi (We are grateful for mercy and grace). Most importantly we thank all who have shared this wonderful journey with us. We thank you for your prayers and well wishes. Rea leboha‚” she wrote.
