Ayanda Ncwane faces backlash over alleged skin bleaching
Ayanda Ncwane has become a hot topic on social media after being accused by users of altering her skin tone through bleaching.
Recent screenshots from a video featuring the entrepreneur circulated on X, igniting a stream of reactions and criticisms.
Despite her long-standing reputation for having a light complexion, viewers noted noticeable redness on her face and discrepancies in pigmentation on her forehead, which seemed darker compared to the rest of her skin.
One commenter even posted a vintage image of the TV star to validate their accusations, implying that she had intentionally lightened her skin.
The caption read: “This is how she looked before… beautiful with her natural skin tone. Now she looks like some Nigerian old woman, she even has ‘Christian’ BBL.”

Another commenter remarked, saying: “In person it’s way worse. Saw her on a flight recently and she was grey and red.
Others echoed this viewpoint, with one stating: “Yes, I saw an old picture. She is just a normal shade of brown in complexion, she’s not light-skinned at all from that pic, so she is bleaching strong it seems.”
