The actor rose to fame with his funny videos on social media, but his role on The Wife as Hlomu's identical twin brother Langa Dladla, catapulted his career to even greater heights. The Wife wrapped up its second season on Thursday, and Linda took to his Twitter account yesterday, to announce his departure from the show.
In a tweet he wrote "Being on #TheWifeShowmax has been such an amazing experience. A beautiful portrait of dreams becoming a reality. On to greener pastures," he wrote.
Fans took to the comments section to praise him for embodying his character wholeheartedly and being natural. They wished him all the best in his future endeavours.
That role was made for you,I thoroughly enjoyed every part of your acting. It came out so natural,fun and easy. You were exceptional ♥️@majola_lindah
Linda has been booked and busy ever since he landed this role. He has been scoring gig after gig. He recently scored a new hosting gig on SABC 1 where he hosts a wedding show.
The Wife successfully topped the Twitter trends list since it premiered. The storyline and the top-tier acting have been leaving viewers on the edge of their seats. The show is centered around lovebirds Hlomu played by Mbalenhle Mavimbela and Mqhele played by Bonko Khoza.
Hlomu is a journalist by profession, who goes to the city of gold to seek greener pastures, but she falls in love with a taxi driver Mqhele. At the beginning of the season Mqhele is this charming and caring guy, but as the season gradually develops he becomes toxic, controlling, and abusive.
The couple has been hailed for carrying the show on their backs. Viewers also had a love to hate relationship with the vengeful Majola Brothersplayed bySiyabonga Shibe and Ntando Mncube. They also announced that they have left the show.
Ntando Mncube shared an emotional message on his Instagram page as he announced their exit. "So this is it. Finally rid of the Majola Brothers....what an amazing ride it has [email protected]_shibe what an amazing talent and brother to work with. We worked together as a team and I couldn't of asked for a better person to work beside."
He went on to thank the cast and crew of the production for embracing them fully: "Thanks for your great direction throughout. To the entire cast and crew of the Wife it has been amazing a journey never to be forgotten. @zikhonasodlaka @mbaureloaded and to all of u not mentioned Salute. Until we meet again, and last but not least to my fans. Thank u thank u for hating us that much which meant we were doing a good job..
