Gumede announced on her Instagram account that she was pregnant after her mother’s passing. Her mother who was the National Freedom Party president Zanele-KaMagwaza Msibi died from a long illness.  

The actress added that her unborn baby was her and her mother’s unanswered prayer.  

According to Daily Sun, Gumede’s character will be back on Thursday to use her prophetic gift to help an injured Njili who got beaten up by Mthambisi.  

Mthambisi (Buyile Mdladla) aka Putin beat up Njili (Thembi Nyandeni) after she refused to pay the debt that she’s been paying for years.   

The two met for the first time last week as Putin has been hiding who he is from the KwaMashu community and his enemies.
