Reports that Skeem Saam is replacing Lerato Marabe with The Wife star Lungelo Mpangase have been rubbished by entertainment commentator Phil Mphela.
Mphela adds that the actress Lerato Marabe who currently plays the character of Pretty Seakamela is not leaving Skeem Saam.
“Village rumours that Lungelo Mpangase will be taking over the role of “Pretty” on SkeemSaam from Lerato Marabe are categorically false.”
“PreHasa drama continues as is on SABC1 weeknights at 19h30,” adds Mphela.
Popular actress Lungelo Mpangase is famously known for her roles in e.tv’s cancelled telenovela, Nikiwe, and Showmax’s popular telenovela, The Wife.
Kaya 959 also previously rubbished rumours that Pretty’s fiancé, Lehasa (played Cedric Fourie) is set to exit the educational soapie.
Lehasa Maphosa is a crooked businessman who previously appeared in court to face charges for the murder of Fanie Maseremula.
In the current storyline, Pretty’s fiancé Lehasa was found guilty of murder and the unlawful discharge of a firearm.
Fourie’s character also recently killed Pretty’s lover, Tsietsi, played by former The Queen actor Pholoso Mohlala.
Lehasa was sentenced to life in prison on Friday’s episode and gave Pretty his shares to Levels Cafe, his house, cars and millions.
