Before joining the acting industry, he was a soccer player for Ledwaba Power Stars Football Club but left because of injury.

    Name: Thapelo Aphiri
    Date of birth: January 24, 1982
    Age: 39 years old
    Place of Birth: Hammanskraal, Gauteng province
    Occupation: Actor, Creative Director, Director and Scriptwriter
    Known as: Javas on Scandal etv
    Nationality: South African

    Early life of Thapelo

    Thapelo Aphiri was born on 24 January 1982 in Hammanskraal, Gauteng Province in South Africa. His father was a janitor at a high school and his mother was a domestic worker, they both encouraged him to study but by the time he went to university his father had already passed away, so he mostly had to make his own decisions.¹

    When he was still at school he dreamt of nothing but playing professional football. His favorite soccer stars were Benny McCarthy and Ronaldo (not of Portugal), his dream was to play alongside them. During this childhood time, Thapelo also learnt art skills such as writing, directing and acting from his big brother.

    Educational background of Thapelo

    Thapelo Aphiri attended Makgetsi High School in Hammanskraal. He later joined Pubby Molokwana sport academy in Joburg to pursue a career in soccer but after a while, he had to quit because of an injury and pursued arts.

    In 2004 he enrolled at University of Pretoria to study Drama and Dramatics. He graduated with a Bachelor’s degree or BA in Drama in 2012. Thapelo managed to obtain distinctions in Theatre Studies of acting practicals in two successive years. He also acquired skills of being a writer, producer, lighting, stage management, directing, producing and acting.

    Thapelo as a soccer player

    The now Scandal star, Thapelo, never saw himself as an actor but a soccer player. He dreamt of playing soccer alongside any of his role models, Ronaldo or Benny McCarthy. When he was doing matric, he was invited for trials at Supersports and he made it to the top six out of about 700 people who came for the trials. So he played for Tuks until he was introduced to Mike Kambule and ended in the under 20 of Power Stars.

    “I think the Supersport coach was Pitso Mosimane by then. That is when I realised that I might have something to give in soccer so I kept on playing. When I was playing for Tuks, a cousin of mine introduced me to Mike Kambule, and I ended up being invited to play for the under 20 Power Stars.”

    Thapelo’s acting career

    After quitting soccer, Thapelo was back home in Hammanskraal depressed about the future and he came across a poetry and storybook which reminded him of his art skills and he knew from then that he wanted to become an actor. So he then applied at the University of Pretoria to study Drama.

    In his third year of study, Thapelo got a big gig at a traveling show. They used to perform in schools around South Africa. After this Thapelo left the University and joined a company called Past and got to perform in the country and other African countries like Tanzania. By then he had not graduated so he decided to go back to university to finish his degree. It was during this time that he met his agent who was looking for actors for the shows such as Home Affairs, Sins and Sinners, Shred and Dreams and Scandal.

    “At Scandal, I auditioned for Bongani’s part, I think Bongani was this guy that s.e.xually assaulted Dintle in the show, Yeah! I didn’t get that part, then few months later I got a call that I should come through and bring Javas, which was initially just a feature extra,” said Thapelo Aphiri. ²

    Career

    Before she got into acting, Linda Mtoba was an isiZulu teacher to grades 1 and 5 students. She says that teaching gave her the confidence to become a performer. It’s fair to say that Linda didn’t quite envision going into acting but her friends, who found her to be bubbly and lively, encouraged her to audition. Consequently, she landed a role on “Isibaya” television series where she played the role of Zama Ngwenya. In 2018, Linda Mtoba left Isibaya on an emotional note after her on-screen death.

    This was a breakout role for Linda Mtoba who went on to act in “The River”. She portrays the character of Nomonde, a manipulative woman whom she said during her interview with Afternoon Express, she wouldn’t desire a friendship nor be an enemy of in real life.

    In 2020, Linda Mtoba launched her foundation to help children realise the future. The COVID-19 pandemic inspired this initiative as its devastating effects shone through and Linda desires to help alleviate those struggles.

    Relationships

    Whilst Linda Mtoba is very picky with what she shares with the public about her, she has given Mzansi details, enough to satisfy their curiosity about her relationship. Linda Mtoba and her husband Steven Meyer did a traditional wedding in 2017. It was Linda Mtoba’s desire that her boyfriend performs the Lobola process and ask for her hand.

    That done, he made the next big step, the proposal. Speaking to Metro FM breakfast show, Linda Mtoba revealed that her husband popped the question on a lovely Sunday morning. Linda Mtoba has snapped images of her wedding ring.

    As for how they met, Linda Mtoba revealed they first met at a club before they came across one another on Facebook. He inboxed her but she had forgotten about their initial meetup. Linda eventually recalled it and as they say, the rest is history.

    Family

    Linda Mtoba and Steven Meyer have one child. The actress gave birth to a baby girl on 3 October 2019 and christened her Baby Bean, not her real name, as she doesn’t intend to share it with the public. As is the case nowadays, Linda Mtoba went all out with her all-white themed baby shower.

    Controversy

    Whether they like it or not, celebrities will always get unsolicited advice on just about anything from fans. Linda Mtoba expressed her distaste to a fan who faulted her for posting a picture of her helper Emma, on her Instagram page. The fan assumed that she did it without Emma’s permission. Linda Mtoba set the record straight and let the fan know that Emma is part of her family and it was not the first time her image was on Instagram.

    In another controversy, Linda Mtoba explained how a dress that’s said to be Minnie Dlamini’s wedding dress ended up on her for her role on Isibaya. Linda laid the blame on the production’s doorstep as she doesn’t make any decision with regard to the props they use. The production crew of the show reached out to the designer and Minnie Dlamini and apologised for the incident.

    Linda Mtoba’s parenting skills have been questioned by her social media followers. Firstly, it was about her not cooking for her husband. She defended her decision and stated that she cooks whenever she feels like it and people should stop imposing their beliefs on others.

    The next thing she had to explain to her online following was her breastfeeding decisions. Linda posted videos of her breastfeeding her baby girl and people opined that she was too old to be doing it. In response, Linda pointed out to World Health Organisation’s recommendation that children be breastfed up to two years old and encouraged mothers to shun away criticisms.
