TV and radio personality Dineo Ranaka returned to social media after her hiatus to announce her new business venture.
The former Kaya FM radio presenter had cleared her Instagram account of all her old posts. She also unfollowed everyone she previously followed two months ago.
Ranaka returned to the spotlight to announce that she has her own restaurant called The Untrained Chef, located at 43 5th Street, Wynberg, Sandton, Johannesburg.
Her sudden disappearance from social media left fans concerned as they wondered whether or not she is having another mental breakdown.
In 2023, she opened up about having mental health struggles and suicidal thoughts. She later checked into a facility and opened up about doing much better.
Ranaka said it was important for her to disappear and reinvent herself. “You know, sometimes you gotta disappear and just mind your business… don’t mind my silence, it’s super healthy. It’s wholesome.”
She teamed up with The Purple Chef, Barney Jiri, for her new restaurant.
The celebrated media personality revealed that the idea was born in 2017. However, seven years later, Dineo Ranaka opened her first restaurant.
