Nadia Nakai, the Zimbabwean-South African rapper and television personality, has been making waves in the music industry for years. But what about her parents? Who are they, and what is their story? Let’s dive into the untold story of Nadia Nakai‘s parents.
Nadia Nakai, born Nadia Nakai Kandava on May 18, 1990, in South Africa, has a South African father and a Zimbabwean mother. Although her parents have maintained a low profile, it is known that her father’s surname is Kandava, and her mother’s surname is Dlamini.
At 16, Nadia changed her surname from Kandava to Dlamini to embrace her Zimbabwean heritage. In an interview, she shared that her parents separated when she was young, and she was raised by her mother. Despite the separation, Nadia maintains a good relationship with her parents.
In 2024, Nadia reunited with her father after 30 years. The reunion, which took place at a Spur restaurant in Boksburg, South Africa, was described as “wholesome” by Nadia. Her father reached out to her following the tragic death of her boyfriend, AKA, and Nadia said that it was a good meeting.
Nadia also has half-siblings who live in Cape Town, South Africa. Although she is not very close to them, she keeps in touch over the phone.
