Inflammatory claims that lay bare schism between Zendaya and the half-sister even her friends didn't know existed

Yesterday a 51-year-old half-sister emerged from the shadows complaining of neglect and launching a blistering attack on her famous sibling's character.

Their father, Kazembe Ajamu Coleman, had her with his teenage sweetheart Michelle Mackintosh when he was just 14 years old, and then went on to have five more children with another partner before meeting Zendaya’s mother, Claire Stoermer, a fellow schoolteacher. Zendaya moved from her hometown of Oakland in California to Holland’s home in Kingston-Upon-Thames, west London, seven years after the couple met on the set of Spider-Man in 2016. Following her success at Disney, her father quit his job as a teacher to become her manager and she was cast as MJ in the Marvel Spider-Man franchise, opposite her now-fiance.
