Seete told Showmax stories that her new role is very different compared to the shows that she's done in the past. She said she will be playing the role of Portia, a wealthy middle-aged woman who's bored with her marriage:
"There comes a point in life when you get tired of playing it safe. You sort of want to stretch yourself a bit and kind of surprise yourself.
"So with this one, it came with a whole lot of things that really shook me a little bit and made me uncomfortable. But I also love being uncomfortable."
