What fans can expect in Fatal Seduction Season 3

While Netflix South Africa has kept details of the new season of Fatal Seduction close to its chest, fans of the hit series can expect Season 3 to pick up where Season 2 left off. The Season 2 finale saw Professor Nandi Mahlati (played by Kgomotso Christopher) rekindling her affair with Jacob Tau (played by Prince Grootboom), discovering that her husband Judge Leonard Mahlati (played by Thapelo Mokoena) was feigning his memory loss.

During Season 2, Kgomotso Christopher’s character fought to save her daughter’s life from the villain, Police Minister Vilakazi, played by Warren Masemola.

It is also unclear whether Fatal Seduction will retain the original cast who starred in seasons 1 and 2.
