When she was 16, Cele was approached by Mbongeni Ngema, who told her he believed she had what it took to become an actress.

However, she decided to let fans into what happened to her in the past after a video of Babes Wodumo<\/a> being slapped multiple times by her lover, Mampintsha, went viral online.<\/p>\n
Baby Cele while condemning the act, revealed that she was herself once a victim of domestic abuse when she was much younger in her first marriage. According to her, she suffered abuse at the hands of her first husband, whom she described as a monster for seven years. The actress said she could relate with Babes as the entire saga took her years back to her first marriage.<\/p>\n
Although the marriage was abusive and she was encouraged by friends and those close to her to leave her husband, she found it very hard to walk away, even though she did not love him anymore or had any feelings for him. She remained in the loveless marriage because she was scared the “Monster” threatened he was going to hunt her down and kill her like a dog if she ever tried walking away.<\/p>\n
She later found the strength to walk away and start all over again. As a result of all she suffered from marriage at a young age and the abuse that followed, she stated that<\/a> she felt worthless at some point, and it became hard for her to trust the genuineness of good men.<\/p>\n
