Buntu Petse: Nontle from Generations The Legacy’s actual age revealed

Nontle on Generations The Legacy
Buntu Petse stars on Generations The Legacy as eighteen-year-old Nontle Majola, Ayanda and Tau’s daughter. She leant that Tau was her father after attempting to seduce him. It indeed flows in the family; Nontle’s character and behaviour match her aunt Tshidi, famous for fighting for what she believes in.
She is friends with Melokuhle and Mbali, once kidnapped by Johnathan Okere on a mission to find the truth about her father; Nontle proves to be family-oriented. She struggled to come to terms with the fact that Detective Dali Malinga, the man who jailed her father, would be her stepfather.
Nontle’s fans wonder how life is when you have a secretive and lying mother like Ayanda. Having lied about her daughter’s birth father, Ayanda lied that Nontle’s maternal grandfather died while she was young. The reappearance of Mandla Majola (Momelezi Ntshiba) as Ayanda’s father destroyed Nontle though she is quick to forgive.
