South African actor Yonda Thomas recently made headlines on social media after his wife, Dr Taz Emeran-Thomas, shared a heartwarming message regarding her hubby's actions while she was sick in the hospital.

On Tuesday, 15 July 2025, the actor's wife went on Instagram to praise her husband, who had bagged an international role in January 2025, for always being there for her through the good and bad times.

Thomas was a perfect example of "in sickness and in health." His wife revealed that he was always there for her during a dark time in her life when she was battling with sickness at the hospital. Dr Thomas who tied the knot with Yonda in 2022, also posted some content that showed how hands-on the actor was when his wife was bound to a hospital bed.

In her post, she wrote:

"In this picture taken 2 years ago, I was at the height of dealing with an illness, just wheeled out of a 4-hour cardiothoracic operation, physically weak, emotionally drained, and unsure of what the next day would hold. But my husband showed up.

"Every single day. He carried the weight I couldn’t. He sacrificed time, comfort, and sleep just to care for me. He prayed when I had no strength left. He led with patience, not pressure. He led with love, not pride. He led with calm, not chaos. The world often teaches us that leadership in a relationship is about control or dominance, but the Bible paints a different picture."

She further mentioned that he continually loves her unconditionally and makes sacrifices for them, for which she is forever grateful. Dr Thomas also thanked God for blessing her with such a partner who didn't just say the words: "in sickness and health," but actually lived them.
