Sandton trophy wife and ruler of the private school PTA moms Thathi Ndaba’s (Katlego Danke, Kgothalo since 2016 on Isidingo, 1998-2020) life of luxury falls apart after a hijacking gone wrong. It leaves her a penniless widow to a man whose millions were built on lies. Thathi, who’s always pretended that she was born with a silver spoon in her mouth, is forced to turn to her real past for help: to her shebeen queen mom Mam’Sonto (Connie Chiume, Mamokete from 2007-2016 on Rhythm City, 2007-now) in Alexandra township and to Mondli (Zolisa Xaluva, Diamond since 2017 on The Queen, 2016-now), whose heart she broke!
WHO’S WHO
THATHI is the girl who had everything except money growing up. But with her beauty, charisma and wit, men were falling over themselves to provide the cash. She abandoned her true love Mondli, her family, her studies and any thought of a career for the easy life of a trophy wife to a rich older man. But while she is an arrogant snob, Thathi would do anything for her children Langa and Nobuhle.
