  South Africa's Unemployment Rate Rises to 33.6% in Q2 2026 South Africa's unemployment rate climbed to 33.6% in the second quarter of 2026, up from 32.7% in the first quarter, according to new figures from the national statistics department. The number of unemployed people rose to 8.5 million, while the number of employed people fell by 16,000 to 16.7 million. The data shows job losses across key sectors including community and social services, mining, agriculture, manufacturing and utilities. The steepest declines were recorded in the Western Cape, Gauteng, and North West provinces. Officials did not provide clear reasons for the downturn, leaving the main drivers of the rising unemployment rate uncertain.

 Selena Gomez, Mandy Teefey and Wondermind Co-Founder Sued by Investors Over Alleged $1.2 Million Securities Fraud


Selena Gomez, her mother Mandy Teefey and Wondermind co-founder Daniella Pierson have been named as defendants in a lawsuit filed by investors in the mental health startup.


The lawsuit, filed by limited liability companies Wondermind SRS 44 and Bespoke Wondermind SPV, alleges that nearly $1.2 million was invested in Wondermind based on false representations about the company and its founders.


According to court documents obtained by E! News, the investors claim they were told Gomez would be “intimately involved” with the company. 


The complaint alleges that promised partnerships and initiatives did not materialize and that an app was never built.


The investors further claim they were not informed about problems within the company and only learned about its alleged mismanagement after media reports in 2025.


The lawsuit references a September 2025 article by The Cut that included former employees’ allegations involving Teefey, which she has denied. 


It also cites an August 2025 Forbes report about tensions within Wondermind and Pierson’s departure from the company.


Pierson’s spokesperson said she would not describe her departure as being “pushed out,” adding that leaving was difficult but that she was proud of what the company had built during her time there.


Wondermind was founded in 2021 by Gomez, Teefey and Pierson as a mental health platform offering conversations, content, physical tools and a supportive community.
