Men tend not to be celebrated as parents because more often than not, they don’t play their roles as fathers. But Sunday being Father’s Day, present fathers who are there for their offspring are celebrated throughout the world.
Below is a selection of some of South African celebrities paying homage to their fathers on the special day.
Minnie Dlamini
Media personality Minenhle ‘Minnie’ Dlamini shared a photo of herself with her father fishing.
In the post she wrote “Happy Father’s Day to the best to ever do it. I can’t believe how blessed I am to, not only to be raised by such an incredible man, but to still have him as I raise my son.”
Gail Mabalane
Actress Gail Mabalane described her husband and father to their two kids, Kwaito star Kabelo Mabalane, as the coolest day ever.
“Happy Father’s Day to the best and coolest dad I could’ve asked for. We love doing life with you Kabelo Mabalane … Zoe & Khumo are blessed to have you as their dada.”

Zinhle, who is also the mother of AKA’s daughter Kairo, wished the late rapper a posthumous Happy Father’s Day.
