Skeem Saam’s Hungani Ndlovu On How He Feels About Open Marriage In Real Life. In the world of television drama, characters often find themselves entangled in complex relationships and moral dilemmas. Thabo “Tbose” Maputla, portrayed by the talented actor Hungani Ndlovu, is currently pushing for an open marriage on the popular soapie, Skeem Saam.
However, in stark contrast to his on-screen persona, Hungani holds a completely different perspective on open marriages in real life. As a devoted husband to actress Stephanie, with whom he shares a beautiful child, Hungani treasures the sacredness of marriage and firmly believes in building a strong and exclusive partnership with his life partner.
In a candid interview, Hungani expressed his views on open marriage after being asked if that’s something he’d consider, stating, “Hell no… I don’t aspire to such because the concept of marriage is more sacred between two people. To grow and build something with someone you call your life partner is what I aspire to. We have a covenant and it’s something I want to preserve as much as possible.”
Knowing that open marriage is not something he desires, Hungani shared his thoughts on how his wife, Stephanie, would react if the idea were ever brought up. He humorously stated, “If I were to bring up the idea of an open marriage to Steph, she’d laugh at my face and probably say: ‘Tell me when you’re done joking’.”
This playful response indicates a mutual understanding and alignment of values between the couple.
