Gugu Gumede says weight loss has drastically changed her life.
Former “Uzalo” actress, Gugu Gumede, recently shared that she has no regrets after embarking on her weight loss journey because that helped her land roles that now match her age.
Gumede, who underwent bariatric weight-loss surgery back in January 2024, shared a video on Instagram saying that she is now cast for roles that are age-appropriate after years of portraying old characters.
Gumede said that when she started portraying the role of prophetess Mamlambo on “Uzalo”, she was actually 24 years old.
“I’ve been in this acting industry since I was 23 years old, and when I was 24, I got a role that was the biggest role of my career.
