Peter Lobengula

Peter Lobengula (died 1913) was a South African actor and circus performer who gained considerable attention in Britain during the early 20th-century, claiming to be a prince and the son of Lobengula, the last King of the Matabele. He portrayed his father in the film Major Wilson's Last Stand. His engagement to Florence 'Kitty' Jewell, a white British woman, ignited public scandal and was widely sensationalized by the press, marking an early instance of tabloid journalism's influential role in shaping and echoing British imperialistic attitudes.
