Entering a relationship and marrying in October 1944, they initially lived with her relatives until moving into a rented house in the township of Orlando in early 1946. [60] Their first child, Madiba "Thembi" Thembekile, was born in February 1945; a daughter, Makaziwe, was born in 1947 but died of meningitis nine months later. [61] Mandela enjoyed home life, welcoming his mother and his sister, Leabie, to stay with him. [62] In early 1947, his three years of articles ended at Witkin, Sidelsky and Eidelman, and he decided to become a full-time student, subsisting on loans from the Bantu Welfare Trust. [63] For political scientists Betty Glad and Robert Blanton, Mandela was an "exceptionally intelligent, shrewd, and loyal leader". [409] His official biographer, Anthony Sampson, commented that he was a "master of imagery and performance", excelling at presenting himself well in press photographs and producing sound bites. [410] His public speeches were presented in a formal, stiff manner, and often consisted of clichéd set phrases. [411] He typically spoke slowly, and carefully chose his words. [412] Although he was not considered a great orator, his speeches conveyed "his personal commitment, charm and humour". [413] Ex-CIA spy admits tip led to Nelson Mandela's long imprisonment".

The tank was regularly repainted, and its colour scheme changed, often by local graffiti artists. In 2002 it was painted pink by Cubitt Artists and Aleksandra Mir. [8] In April 2017 it was temporarily repainted by artist Charlotte Meldon to its authentic military olive drab. In April 2020, during the coronavirus pandemic, it was painted sky blue in support of the National Health Service. [9] Remembrance poppies were added in November 2020. In July 2021, it was repainted light green with dark green letters reading "Go Go Green". Pillay, Verashni (6 December 2013). "Mandela's memorial service to be held on December 10". Mail & Guardian .

[432] He was heterosexual, [433] and biographer Fatima Meer said that he was "easily tempted" by women. [434] Another biographer, Martin Meredith, characterised him as being "by nature a romantic", highlighting that he had relationships with various women. [435] Mandela was married three times, fathered six children, and had seventeen grandchildren and at least seventeen great-grandchildren. [436] He could be stern and demanding of his children, although he was more affectionate with his grandchildren. [437] His first marriage was to Evelyn Ntoko Mase in October 1944; [438] they divorced in March 1958 under the multiple strains of his adultery and constant absences, devotion to revolutionary agitation, and the fact that she was a Jehovah's Witness, a religion requiring political neutrality. [439] Mandela's second wife was the social worker Winnie Madikizela-Mandela, whom he married in June 1958. [440] They divorced in March 1996. [441] Mandela married his third wife, Graça Machel, on his 80th birthday in July 1998. [442] Reception and legacy Flowers left at the Mandela statue in London's Parliament Square following his death

In July 1952, Mandela was arrested under the Suppression of Communism Act and stood trial as one of the 21 accused—among them Moroka, Sisulu and Yusuf Dadoo—in Johannesburg. Found guilty of "statutory communism", a term that the government used to describe most opposition to apartheid, their sentence of nine months' hard labour was suspended for two years. [86] In December, Mandela was given a six-month ban from attending meetings or talking to more than one individual at a time, making his Transvaal ANC presidency impractical, and during this period the Defiance Campaign petered out. [87] In September 1953, Andrew Kunene read out Mandela's "No Easy Walk to Freedom" speech at a Transvaal ANC meeting; the title was taken from a quote by Indian independence leader Jawaharlal Nehru, a seminal influence on Mandela's thought. The speech laid out a contingency plan for a scenario in which the ANC was banned. This Mandela Plan, or M-Plan, involved dividing the organisation into a cell structure with a more centralised leadership. [88]
