Pabi Moloi’s guardian angels defend her against questions about her weight

Internet users have rallied behind media personality Pabi Moloi after she was about to become the target of some body shaming, as some individuals expressed concern about her weight and health after a video of her exercising started making rounds on social media.

TV and radio presenter Pabi Moloi is one celebrity who has been open and transparent about her weight loss journey, which has spanned over the past decade. After sharing gym videos revealing her most recent physique, her weight has quickly come back into the spotlight, as users express concern over her health and general well-being.

As expected, the public has come up with various theories and speculations regarding what has caused the drastic change, including her controversial and messy divorce from ex-husband Ruan Adams. These users believe that the extensive legal battles they went through caused a significant toll on their physical and emotional well-being.

The radio personality also has faced accusations of drug abuse, which she has publicly refuted, while others have suggested that she might be experiencing severe health issues such as lupus or diabetes, and have gone to the extent of comparing her with veteran actress Sophie Ndaba, who made headlines after her pictures made headlines for causing concern about her health.


Recently, some users have come to Pabi’s defence after some users took to the internet to ridicule and body shame the media personality. These individuals have called out their fellow social media users. These users have highlighted the dangers of body shaming people and why it is important to exercise empathy when it comes to these situations. Furthermore, these users highlight how Pabi could be pleased and satisfied with the way her body looks, therefore giving no one the right to make any comments about it.
