Lerato Kganyago's #BehindTheStory interview leaves Twitter in tears

Lerato Kganyago has never been one to leave herself vulnerable on public platforms, but on last night’s episode of Behind The Story, she left many fans in tears as she told her story.

The show, which is hosted by Pearl Thusi, gives viewers a front-row seat into the lives of the local celebrities they look up to. It aims to go behind the headlines and behind the personality to see who they really are:

Lerato held nothing back in the interview. She got emotional as she spoke about the tragedy she went through when she had two miscarriages and how she still asks God to heal her.

“I have moments where I just zone out and want to be alone. Sometimes I ask God for someone that I can hold in my hands,” Lerato said as she pokes about children. The presenter also spoke about the “drama” that led her to leave Live Amp, the “beefs” and fakeness in the industry and that True Love cover drama came up.

“You can’t change a person or the way they see you, some people are in a bad space and some in a good space. There’s no way I’ll sabotage myself because of what you are going through” – @leratokganyago on her relationship with industry peers 👀#BehindTheStory

When the inner @leratokganyago mentioned the fact that it's not only females but males too that sell their bodies to get ahead in life.😅😂 #BehindTheStory with @PearlThusi pic.twitter.com/o7oNitebtg
