July Spoiler: ‘Skeem Saam’ Disappoints Pretty Seakamela and Lehasa Maphosa’s Fans Again

• Popular Skeem Saam character, Lehasa Maphosa, is still in love with Dr Blue, even after he was released from prison
• Lehasa Maphosa has been cheating on his fiancée, Pretty Seakamela, while he was behind bars for murder and theft
• Fans of the show took to social media this week to react to Pretty and Lehasa's reunion and to lambast the SABC1 soapie's writers

Skeem Saam writers are about to anger Lehasa Maphosa (Cedric Fourie) and Pretty Seakamela's (Lerato Marabe) fans again this July, when he's released from prison.

Viewers of SABC1's educational soapie will be disappointed with the writers for ruining Lehasa Maphosa and Pretty Seakamela's romance storyline. On the show, Lehasa was released from prison on Monday, 30 June episode.

But the businessman, who proposed marriage to his long-term girlfriend, Pretty Seakamela, before he was arrested, fell in love with Dr Blue while he was serving his time.

TVSA Skeem Saam July teasers reveal that Lehasa's uncle, Phomolo, will tell him to marry Dr Loren Blue instead of Pretty.

The Friday 18 July teaser says:

"Pretty suspects Lehasa is playing her for a fool."

The Wednesday 23 July teaser reads:

"Pretty decides to enroll in a business course to salvage her relationship with Lehasa."

The teasers also indicate that Lehasa might go on a vacation with Dr Blue, while giving Pretty a hard time.

SABC1 shared a snippet on X of Lehasa Maphosa and Pretty Seakamela's reunion on the Monday, 30 June, episode. Lehasa is released from prison after being locked up in 2024.

"I know you are gonna break them up. The writers hate people who are in love."

"Whoever he or she (writers) needs serious counseling. Une (he or she) has childhood trauma. No relationship survives, or lives to tell a beautiful story there."
