Doja Cat shared an emotional moment during her recent visit to South Africa, reconnecting with her father’s side of the family for the first time. Videos making rounds online captured the Grammy-winning star warmly embraced by relatives, including cousins and half-siblings, as she explored her roots.
The heartfelt reunion came just days before her performance at the Global Citizen Festival 2026, where she delivered a major set to a massive crowd. However, the visit has also been overshadowed by an ongoing public fallout with her father, Dumisani Dlamini. The veteran actor recently claimed he was denied entry to her concert despite purchasing a ticket, sparking conversations online.
The situation follows earlier tensions between the two, including social media exchanges that further highlighted their strained relationship.
Despite the controversy, Dlamini has urged the public not to turn against his daughter, while also raising concerns about his past relationship with her mother.
