Movies are is his thing: “I love watching movies and I watch a lot of them“

It’s not all about the looks: “A lot of people think that I go to gym because of aesthetics and to a certain extent‚ it started off that way‚ but I go to the gym for discipline.”

Family is important: “I value family a lot. Sometimes people think I value my family too much because I will always make time for family before I make time for anyone.”

Working with power couple Connie and Shona Ferguson: “Being cast in The Queen has been the biggest blessing in my career and I recognise my blessing. Being able to work with a power couple like the Fergusons has been incredible and I’ve learnt so much.”

And then for the answer every Mzansi female wants: What is Jesse’s idea of a perfect woman? “I don’t think I have a specific type of woman but one thing she must have is a sense of humour‚ I love laughing and I love making jokes.”
