Reports: DJ Cleo's dad has passed away

Johannesburg- It's being reported that DJ Cleo's dad passed away on Saturday after a long fight against diabetes. 

This is according to Sunday World, which is reporting that DJ Cleo confirmed the unfortunate news.

It's also believed that Samuel Monyepao (64) and Cleo were working on their strained relationship, after Samuel publicly accused Cleo of neglecting him. 

"He left us a happy man. I'm at peace with the progress we'd made, it's a dark time for the family and we'd really appreciate time and space to mourn," Cleo apparently told the paper. 

It's believed that Cleo has also cancelled all shows for the week to focus on funeral arrangements.
