Actress and TV star Ntando Duma and her husband, music artist Unarine “Una Rams” Rambani, have shared exciting news that has warmed hearts across Mzansi. The couple has welcomed a beautiful baby girl, and they revealed it in style by gracing the August 2025 cover of Batswadi Magazine alongside Ntando’s first-born daughter, Sbahle, and their newborn. In the exclusive interview, the couple opened up about their growing family, their journey, and the values that keep them strong.
Ntando didn’t have the usual late-period realisation. Instead, it started with unusual moments — constant nausea, strange cravings, and vomiting between calls. “We finally said, ‘Why don’t we just get a pregnancy test?’” she recalls with a laugh. The test turned positive on the same day they were finalising details for one of their three wedding celebrations. “I was nervous,” Una admits. “I wanted her to feel like a fairy-tale bride, so I immediately calculated how far along she’d be by each ceremony.” When the numbers checked out, they exhaled in relief. “The moment she walked in holding that test, I felt our bond deepen. Life became even more intertwined.”
As public figures, they decided to protect their intimate moments. “There’s so little of our private life that we get to enjoy just for ourselves,” Ntando says. “The baby, the marriage — these are the things we chose to keep sacred.” They remained active on social media but never overshared. Una loved the peace this brought. “Those months before the wedding were precious. We set our rhythm — date nights, Sunday check-ins — without any external commentary.”
Ntando and Una come from different backgrounds, and those experiences shaped the parents they want to be. “My childhood was different,” Ntando says softly. “There were things I missed — warmth, affirmations. I want my daughters to experience that.” Una agrees, adding, “We’re building wealth, not just money, but wealth in love, peace, and all the good things that make a home.” He hopes their daughters learn self-love first and carry that love into the world.
The pregnancy wasn’t easy for Ntando. “I’ll never forget not being able to walk,” she says. Cravings? “Sometimes I’d ask for things just because I knew my husband would get them, she jokes. What kept her strong was support from her sisters, close friends, and nightly prayer sessions with her in-laws. The couple even kept the baby’s gender a surprise. “When Sbahle opened it and saw the scan, she started crying, “ Una recalls. “I teared up too.” Today, their bedtime routine is filled with kisses and Sbahle singing her favourite line: “Ohana means family, and family means nobody gets left behind.”
