“Thuthuka Mthembu and Sandile Mfusi Confirm Their Off-Screen Romance”

The on-screen chemistry between Uzalo characters Nonka and Kwanda is more than just acting—it’s blossomed into a real-life romance. Thuthuka Mthembu, who portrays Nonka, and Sandile “Masandi” Mfusi, who plays Kwanda, are a couple off-screen as well. The two actors have confirmed their relationship, but have kept details private, choosing to share the news only with close friends and family.

A Love Story That Started on Set

Sources close to the couple revealed that their relationship began shortly after Sandile joined *Uzalo*. Despite their shared on-screen passion, they wanted to keep their romance under wraps to protect their professional lives. “It didn’t take them long to fall in love,” a source explained. “It happened soon after Masandi joined the show. They are in love, but they’ve decided to keep things private to avoid any impact on their work.”

Although they prefer to keep things low-key, the couple has been open about their relationship with those closest to them. According to insiders, they are committed to ensuring their romance doesn’t interfere with their roles on the popular soap opera.

### **Keeping It Professional**

The couple is determined to maintain professionalism on set. “They are madly in love, but what they’re doing right is not bringing their personal lives into work,” said another source. This approach seems to have been successful, as both Thuthuka and Sandile are well-liked by their colleagues, and their real-life connection has enhanced their on-screen chemistry.

“It’s easy for them to play lovers because they are romantically involved in real life. Most of their colleagues are happy for them, and they seem very well-suited to each other,” the insider added. The couple is close in age and shares a deep connection beyond their professional roles.

### **What Makes Them a Good Match**

Thuthuka is reportedly drawn to Sandile’s religious values. “Thuthuka loves that Masandi is a churchgoer,” said the source. “He’s a man of God, and she appreciates that he is grounded and not a player.” On the other hand, Sandile admires Thuthuka’s focused and ambitious nature, which has made their bond even stronger.

Both actors have remained tight-lipped about the specifics of their relationship. When approached for comment, Sandile laughed and declined to speak on the matter. “I have no comment,” he said, and Thuthuka has also kept her personal life private.

### **Pregnancy Rumors Surround Thuthuka Mthembu**

In addition to the news of their relationship, rumors have surfaced that Thuthuka Mthembu might be pregnant. While nothing has been confirmed, speculation about her pregnancy has circulated, though the actress has not made any public statements. She has always been known for her private nature, so the truth behind these rumors remains unclear for now.

Until any official confirmation is made, fans will continue to speculate on the possibility of Thuthuka expecting her first child. For now, the couple remains focused on their careers and their relationship, keeping details under wraps.
