Hungani Ndlovu finally broke his silence after his reported split from his wife, Stephanie.

Hungani Ndlovu speaks out

Hungani Ndlovu and his wife, Stephanie, are once again surfing through divorce allegations; however, this time, they appear to be true.

Briefly News reported on the couple's split, which was allegedly due to the irreparable disintegration of their relationship.

Hungani, famous for his role as Thabo "Tbose" Maputla on Skeem Saam, finally broke his silence on 15 June 2025 amid the divorce reports; however, it was merely to promote his collaboration with Curve Fragrances:

"Confidence isn’t something I found alone; it was reflected back to me by the men around me. Through simple moments, a conversation, breaking bread and working together, these brothers helped me see myself clearly, stand taller, and move with more purpose."

Indirectly confirming the reports, Hungani appears to have wiped his Instagram page clean of Stephanie's pictures, which made up a large percentage of his timeline, including promo videos and clips from their YouTube channel.
