On Sunday, it was revealed that Durban actress Owethu Enhle Gambushe died in a horrific car accident over the weekend. The news of her death came as a shock to many viewers of the show, especially to her fellow cast members.

One actress who expressed her grief over the loss of Enhle is Portia Ncwane who plays the character of Slindiwe Ngwenya on the show.

Portia described Owethu as her long-lost twin sister and that she is immensely heartbroken over losing someone whom she had a connection with, especially considering how closely they worked together.

“Rest in Peace Sthandwa Sami. There’s a lot I still want to say to you. I had finally found my twin sister. We just found each other again and now you’re gone, I meant every word when I said I like you because you join in on my weirdness. God only takes the best and you were the best Sthandwa Sami, ” said Portia in a recent Facebook post.
