Natasha Thahane on living with Archbishop Desmond Tutu

Johannesburg - To fans of Skeem Saam, actress Natasha Thahane is known as Enhle, but to her grandfather, Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu, she's just his loving granddaughter.

That's right! Natasha has a famous grandpa, although, as she tells Drum she prefers to keep it quiet.

So, what's it like to live under the same roof as the legendary archbishop?

"Being Mkhulu's grandchild is okay," she says.

"I lived with them for two years in Cape Town, while I was doing my grade 11 and 12. It was chilled- he's a great guy," she adds.

And, even though dinner table discussions are interesting in the house she says the family hardly ever discuss politics, choosing instead to focus on religion.
