A recent video that has gone viral on social media features former The Queen actor Xolani Mayekiso as he goes about his morning routine, prompting significant concern among viewers.
In the footage, Mayekiso shares insights into his day-to-day activities, a trend he has maintained since leaving the Mzansi Magic series, where he portrayed Thato Maake.
Although Mayekiso has discussed the need to explore additional income opportunities post-show, the video raised alarms for many online users regarding his current situation.
Conversations swiftly escalated on social media, with several individuals pondering the challenges that actors encounter following the conclusion of prominent roles.
Some commenters also critically evaluated the role of production companies in supporting their talent, bringing Ferguson Films and producer Connie Ferguson into the dialogue.
Mayekiso became part of The Queen during its second season and stayed on until the series ended after a run of seven years.
Even though he is no longer regularly seen on television, the actor actively connects with his fan base through social media, where he frequently shares open moments from his life beyond the spotlight.
