Lebo Keswa Shrugs Off Social Media Memes After Split with Letoya
Lebo Keswa has been making waves lately, and not just with the hot takes on her love life. Since embarking on what many are dubbing her “break-up tour,” she has found herself navigating the tricky waters of social media — as if breakups weren’t tough enough! Her candid discussions about her divorce from former Generations actress Letoya Makhene have led to a tidal wave of memes and viral clips, with South Africans turning her podcast moments into comedic gold. But here’s the kicker: Keswa is totally unfazed.
In an interview with TshisaLIVE, Keswa expressed her indifference to the endless stream of memes and ridicule circulating online. Her ultimate goal? To protect her image and clear her name from what she claims are lies propagated by Makhene for social media clout. “I’m aware of the memes, and I’m not bothered,” she stated. “I’m just trying to get back at the dirt I found myself in by associating with her.”
Let’s take a moment to unpack that. Divorce is already an emotional rollercoaster, but throw a celebrity factor into the mix, and you’ve got a full-blown theme park ride. Keswa understands the stakes — she’s not just dealing with any ordinary breakup; she’s up against a celebrity with 2.5 million social media followers. That’s a whole lot of eyes watching and commenting. “I stand by my truth because I’m dealing with a celebrity,” she said. And honestly? You can’t fault her for wanting to set the record straight.

The drama isn’t just about memes and online takes, though. Just two months ago, Keswa passionately defended herself against Makhene’s accusations that she stole money. “I am not a thief; I work hard for my money,” she declared. In fact, she alleges that her hard work has been undermined, not just emotionally but financially, due to Makhene’s alleged “antics.” The fallout, according to her, has resulted in real-life consequences like losing out on job opportunities and experiencing debt.
Keswa’s openness about her struggles is refreshing in a world often saturated with filtered perfection. She’s not just venting; she’s actively trying to reclaim her narrative amidst the noise. “I never thought Letoya would stoop that low,” she shared, indicating the depths of the betrayal she feels. It’s a raw and real perspective that resonates in a society where private matters can swiftly become fodder for public consumption and critique.
Throughout this situation, it’s important to remember that behind the memes lies a real person with feelings, experiences, and for many, a painful journey. While people might laugh or amplify the drama for entertainment, Keswa’s priority is crystal clear: moving forward with her life and setting the record straight.
So, as Lebo Keswa continues to navigate her “break-up tour,” let’s keep in mind the wisdom she’s dropping between the memes. There’s strength in sharing your truth and taking a stand, and that’s a message worth sharing, meme or not!
