"Nosipho and Pastor Gwala's contracts have not been renewed, so their characters have ended. Omuhle, on the other hand, resigned now and didn't even wait for the filming of the season to end as he was complaining about the changes surrounding her character that would happen when the new season started. She just got annoyed and didn't want to continue filming."
