There has been news about many actors leaving the show, and people are worried that the storyline will change and may be boring. However, there’s good news to all The Wife fans as many of the actors that were rumoured to be leaving the show are coming back for the third season.

The Wife’s first and second season

The drama series debuted last year in November after a long time of preparation as the show producers wanted to involve Mzansi in the casting. The show’s first season broke Showmax records as it became the most streamed production on the streaming service. Thursday was nicknamed Zulu day for the months the two seasons were streaming.

Kwenzo Ngcobo and Gaisang Noge will be taking the lead roles this coming season based on their love story as Qhawe and Naledi. However, Bonko Khoza, who plays Mqhele, will not be returning, and Award-winning actor Wiseman Mncube will take over his role.

The third season tells the story of two lovers, Naledi, a Tswana doctor and Kwenzo, the fourth Zulu brother. Naledi was taken when the second season ended, and the Zulu brothers’ illegal businesses were front page news. The Zulu brothers also face an equally strong family in Naledi’s family, and they may have finally met their match.
