Zelda Le Grange: A year without Mandela
Updated | By Bronwyn Hardick
One year ago we bid farewell to our beloved statesman and icon of peace, Tata Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela. Today, on the anniversary of his death, we remember and celebrate his legacy.
Today the former PA to Nelson Mandela, Zelda La Grange, joined The Complimentary Breakfast in studio and left all that heard what she had to say in tears as she opened her heart shared her deepest vulnerabilities with the listeners of Jacaranda FM.
She was earnest and optimistic as she spoke about her year without Mandela and what she will always remember and treasure about the man she called her friend.
Listen to the full interview to hear what she had to say about her favourite photograph, the difference a year has made in her life, what really happened at the burial in Qunu, the impact the spotlight had on her life and what is the one lesson learned from Mandela that she will always be grateful for.
