#TheWifeShowmax’s Kwenzo Ngcobo Wins Major People’s Choice Award. The Showmax Original telenovela The Wife is ending 2022 the way it started it: at the top of the charts on Showmax.
The third and final season of The Wife has focused on Tswana doctor Naledi (Gaisang K Noge), who is heir to the royal throne, and her Zulu ‘commoner’ lover, Qhawe (Kwenzo Ngcobo). They’ve already been dubbed ‘Qhaledi’ and ‘Mr and Mrs Woolworths’ by Twitter.
After taking home Favourite Rising Star at the 2022 DStv Mzansi Viewers’ Choice Awards, Kwenzo has stepped into the lead role in Season 3 of The Wife with style. Whether he’s risking his life to try save Naledi from her kidnapping, or learning Tswana to woo his lover, or apologising with a private jet to Zanzibar, Kwenzo has been raising the bar for South African men.
This weekend, Kwenzo won the People’s Choice Award at the GQ Men of the Year Awards. He’s also on the cover of GQ this month with the rest of the Zulu brothers, having also graced the cover of Sowetan’s S Mag earlier in the year.
Also look out for new episodes of the critically acclaimed Showmax Originals Donkerbos and Tali’s Joburg Diary every Tuesday and Friday respectively, with new episodes of the hit reality series This Body Works For Me every Wednesday.
