We know her as a social butterfly - but the real Bonang is 'homebody' with big plans for the future

Before the lockdown, Bonang Matheba was someone whose schedule was always full. There were reality shows, business meetings, brand launches, red carpet events, hosting gigs, and of course, a lot of travelling. But these days, the star finds herself at home, unable to enjoy many of the things she once had access to. She doesn't mind, though. I'm slightly surprised when she describes herself as a "homebody".

"I'm not somebody that necessarily leaves their house for anything. You know, I'm Cancerian, so my home is like my favourite place in the world," Bonang tells me during a telephonic catch-up.
