Hungani and Stephanie Ndlovu Confirm Their Six-Year Marriage Has Ended

South African actors Hungani Ndlovu and Stephanie Sandows-Ndlovu have confirmed that their six-year marriage has come to an end.

From on-screen romance to marriage

  1. The couple first connected while working on the television drama Scandal, where Hungani played the popular Romeo and Stephanie portrayed Ingrid. Their on-screen chemistry later developed into a real-life relationship.
  2. They married in February 2019 in a widely publicised wedding ceremony.
  3. In June 2022, Hungani and Stephanie welcomed their first child, Rhulani, who has since celebrated her third birthday.
  4. Because they regularly posted affectionate glimpses of their relationship online, fans often described them as “couple goals.”

The couple has now confirmed that they entered into a divorce agreement, stating that their marriage had “irretrievably broken down.” Their wording indicates that the separation was agreed upon by both sides and is being handled amicably.

The news has left fans disappointed and stunned. Many followers had admired Hungani and Stephanie’s relationship and become used to seeing regular updates about their life together.

Among the material shared on their social media presence is a post from The Ndlovu’s Uncut account.

A separate headline referenced in the same update concerned the suspension of RAF chief executive Collins Letsoalo and his comments before the Portfolio Committee on Transport.
