Actress Baby Cele joins Sibongile and The Dlaminis
Social media has been buzzing about the most-watched show on Mzansi Wethu, Sibongile and The Dlaminis after rumours of Luyanda's departure circulated.
The channel officially announced that Baby Cele, the former Ring Of Lies actress, will join the show in its second season, starting Monday, July 29, 2024.
Baby will debut as Samekelisiwe, Bab’Ntombela’s sister, and she is set to shake things up for her former friends Deliwe and Phetheni.
In a release shared with Briefly News, it was stated that Cele's role is set on revenge:
"The three met as young women and connected over their shared experience of being scammed, but she got the short end of the stick in this friendship trio, which sets her on a path for revenge.Watch her as she returns to Ixopo and turns some people’s lives upside down on the new season of Sibongile & The Dlaminis on Mzansi Wethu (DStv Channel 163) from 29 July at 6:30pm."
The actress told Briefly News that her new character as Samkelisiwe is way different from her previous one Gabisile on Uzalo.
She said:
"This character is way different from Gabisile, she's been through so much, betrayed by her close friends, she didn't have a great childhood and now it's time for her to claim back what she has lost over the years.
"Let the Universe take it's cause...the moment you start chasing things you will definitely attract."
Entertainment commentator Phil Mphela also posted about the news on his Twitter (X) page and wrote:
