- Tunzi was born on 18 September 1993 in the town of Tsolo, the Eastern Cape province of South Africa and raised in the village of Sidwadweni along with her three sisters. She later moved to Cape Town.
Her parents are her role models and her biggest supporters, according to Tunzi.
“I am looking for my mum and dad. I think they are my absolutely biggest fans. Since I won Miss South Africa I think my dad thinks he won as well”, the model said when replying to a question about who’ll be the first people she’ll be looking for in the audience if she wins.
Tunzi said that she’d have picked Vietnam’s Hoàng Thùy to be the next Miss Universe if she didn’t win.
“I think she is the most kind-hearted person I’ve met in a very long time. She is so helpful to the girls and is just always so gentle and kind and I think that the world needs so much love and warmth and kindness right now”, Tunzi said in an earlier interview.
