In 2004 Monjane, then first princess took over the Miss Zimbabwe crown from Linda Van Beek who had fallen pregnant midway through her reign.[3] Miss Zimbabwe rules stipulate that entrants must not be expecting at the time of their election, nor can they fall pregnant during their 'reign'.[4]

In August 2022, a report claimed that Monjane had fallen on hard times and was staying on the streets of Johannesburg with street kids (Nyaope Boys) and taking illegal drugs.[5]

However, Monjane denied the allegations and also revealed that she seeking help on how to become either a sangoma or prophetess.[6]

Basically, what I am struggling with are prophetic things, to be a sangoma, or kuita n’anga in other words. So, my spiritualism means a lot to me. If it’s a church organisation, I need to work with them, maybe, (for them) to help me in that respect.
