A Family Affair
For Priddy Ugly, born Ricardo Moloi, and Bontle, the key to managing their dual roles as parents and public figures lies in the strength of their support system. “I think how we have been able to manage it is we have a good team of people around me, and the team is family,” Priddy Ugly explained. This robust network includes close family members like aunt Candice Modiselle, who step in to help with Afrika’s upbringing, allowing the couple to pursue their careers without compromising on family time.
No Helpers, Just Family
Remarkably, Priddy Ugly and Bontle have chosen to forgo hiring a helper, relying instead on their own efforts and the support of their mothers. “We’ve never had a helper in the house, me and my wife we manage on our own, it’s not easy, there are a lot of sacrifices,” Priddy added, highlighting the couple’s hands-on approach to parenting. This decision underscores their commitment to being actively involved in their daughter’s life, despite the demands of their celebrity status.
