Is Ayanda Bandla the new permanent Sunrise co-presenter next to Sindy Mabe on e.tv or merely a temporary stand-in until the morning show can find a new co-host?
e.tv hasn't said a word about Sunrise's new co-host appointment or Ayanda Bandla although viewers are seeing the former reality TV star now co-anchoring the morning show since Sunrise returned after its Christmas and New Year's hiatus.
TV with Thinus broke the news in December that Sunrise co-host Stacey Holland had suddenly resigned without any public explanation.
It left Sunrise producers scrambling to try and find a replacement on short notice at the end of the year, urgently looking for a suitable replacement with not much time before 2012 ran out.
Now Ayanda Bandla is standing next to morning show veteran Sindy Mabe but e.tv hasn't said anything since Ayanda Bandla popped up when Sunrise resumed in 2013.
Ayanda Bandla is best known as a reality television personality, she was one of the contestants on SABC1's reality competition One Day Leader in 2011.
UPDATE 18:00 - e.tv tells me that Ayanda Bandla is a temporary, substitute replacement for Stacey Holland while Sunrise is finalising the search for a new permanent presenter.
