3. Because Jessica’s father traveled a lot, from grade 3 until Matric she was in boarding school.

4. Jessica shares, “I know how to iron and cook because of my dad. I spent a lot of time with my father and had a beautiful relationship with my father.”
5. She knows how to dance. Don’t take our word for it, check her out getting down at the DJ Sbu Breakfast Show.

6. In 2013, Jessica started working in Jozi and she lived out of her suitcase. She chats to us in a behind-the-scenes interview at our shoot,“I was living out of my suitcase in 2013. There were times when I stayed with friends and then with relatives. I literally had to move every time when it was made clear to me: I was no longer wanted and had overstayed my welcome.  It was rough and I won’t lie, working hard towards fulfilling your dream is tough.” Read the full interview here.
7.  Jessica Nkosi modelled for us last year in January for our Valentine’s Day fashion shoot. Let’s just say the worst Mzansi heatwaves have got nothing on her!
