Patricia Lewis, a renowned Afrikaans singer and TV personality, decided to leave her successful career behind to focus on her family. Despite her impressive resume, including 12 platinum-selling albums and three reality TV shows, Lewis chose to prioritize her son’s upbringing.
In an interview with News24, Lewis shared her journey from the limelight to a peaceful life in Ballito, KwaZulu-Natal. Together with her husband, Mark Whitfield, and their son Max, Lewis shifted her focus to the property industry. The change of pace, coupled with the serene coastal setting, provided an ideal environment for Max’s education and upbringing.
Thirteen years have passed since Lewis’s final performance during the Supersterre season 3 finale. As her son began grade 1, the family decided to prioritize his education, ultimately choosing Zimbali as his school. Lewis, now 55, expressed gratitude for her successful career but recognizes the importance of devoting time to her son.
Max, born in 2004, inherited his father’s intellect, excelling in mathematics and computer studies. His passion for coding and game development began at an early age, showcasing his natural talent. Initially, Lewis planned to take a short break from her career, but as the years passed, she never regretted her decision to prioritize her family.
As Patricia Lewis begins a new chapter in her life, her story serves as a testament to the power of love and the significance of family. Her journey, from a celebrated Afrikaans singer to a dedicated mother, reminds us that sometimes, stepping back from one’s career can lead to a more profound sense of fulfillment and happiness.
