"I fall into the 'Coloured' category . . . My heritage consists of German, ( my last name), Indian, British and Spanish".

So she has ZERO South African (African) heritage and is mostly European and (East?) Indian?

"Coloured" South Africans are 100% made in South Africa. Wouldn't call that ZERO SAfrican heritage at all.

She is mixed race (part Indian, part African, part White). Her dark skin and long straight dark brown hair makes her all the more exotic of a mixed race person as well as the fact that she speaks with a distinctive British-South African accent.

That's what I'm referring to. I should have said Pre-Colonial African heritage/ancestry, which she obviously has otherwise she wouldn't be passable as a the Black American characters she's portrayed in some roles.

Thank you!

On Facebook she said she was coloured and does have African heritage.
