Rachel Kunutu throws shade at Marothi Maphuthuma

Former Skeem Saam actress Lesego Marakalla, known for her years-long role as Rachel Kunutu, became an unexpected treasure to the show with her spicy character.

The schoolgirl led a rather troublesome life, and her union with her on-screen lover/ blesser, Marothi Maphuthuma (Macks Papo), was the tipping point for her family.

However, Rachel was nonchalant about her family and community's perception of her because she was in love. But soon enough, her man turned her off after she saw him in a towel.

In a Twitter (X) video posted by TheBoyScara, Rachel got the shock of her life when Marothi walked in with a towel wrapped around his chest, usually like how women wear it, instead of around his waist like many men.

"What kind of man wears a towel like that?"
