Remember Sonti Magongwa From SkeemSaam? See Where

People in South Africa have been wondering where actress Pearl Nikolic, who played Sonti Magongwa on the show Skeem Saam, is. We haven’t seen her on national TV for a long time. I don’t know if you have, but I haven’t. I didn’t expect to read the article about her.

We didn’t expect to find out something shocking about her. The news seems to have come at the right time, when we needed to do something different. Pearl Maimela, who was in the movie “Skeem Saam,” is now a pastor. We’ve seen a lot of actresses who don’t feel bad about the gift God gave them and use it to serve God. There are other preachers at the church besides Pearl Maimela. Sthoko from SkeemSaam is a well-known pastor’s wife or pastor’s wife who is also an actress. I also didn’t think that Innocent Ndiki is the wife of a pastor, but I just found out that she is.

When we didn’t expect it, she left the Skeem Saam. Less is known about why she left Skeem Saam to begin with. People used to say that she left Skeem Saam right after she got married to her Bulgarian boyfriend in Bulgaria. No one has talked about her coming back.


 

 

 

Fans were sad to hear that Sonti was leaving Skeem Saam after five years. Even though she hasn’t been on the show in over a year, fans of the drama can still watch it on SABC1. The source says that the fact that she is a preacher won’t keep her from acting. She said she won’t stop acting and that she’ll be back soon.

Well, it looks like Pearl, who is better known by the name Sonti, will be back on Skeem Saam soon. Sonti will go back to the Skeem Saam for the wedding of her sister, Mapitsi. Life goes by way too fast. Before the game, Sonti dated Detective Babeile, but after she became famous, she fell in love with Lehasa Maphosa, who ended her career.

Her trip back to Skeem Saam will be interesting. We can picture how she and Lehasa looked at each other. I hope they’ll run into each other. It seems like Sonti will Leeto’s date plus he just get divorced.

Coming Up Next On House of Zwide

Mampho and Maria, fearing for their safety, have turned down Funani’s offer to move into the Zwide mansion, blaming his ongoing feud with Nandipha for the devastating turn of events.

Amidst the turmoil, Faith stands as a pillar of support for the distraught Funani, who admits to being gripped by a fear like never before, acknowledging the sheer evil that Nandipha is capable of.
