Nonka’s happily-ever-after with Phelelani is about to be ruined by the other women in his life: his gran and his mom.

Bending Over Backwards
With the new year also came a fresh start for salon assistant Nonka (Thuthuka Mthembu). Although it wasn’t an easy process, she divorced doctor-turnedgangster Sibonelo Mhlongo (Wiseman Mncube) in January. Not only that, Nonka recently enrolled at a local college to study business management, and she is dating good-guy law student Phelelani (Omega Mncube). “Unlike Sibonelo, who’d constantly drive Nonka up the wall by either putting her life in danger or forcing her into a polygamous marriage, Phelelani treats Nonka well. He is considerate of her feelings and makes her feel special,” explains Thuthuka.

Nonka reciprocates Phelelani’s feelings, and she hasn’t been as excited or happy for the future as when she’s with her beau. But his overprotective granny Mrs Nhlapho (newcomer Mary Ngcobo) is against their romance. The old woman is prepared to go all out to destroy the pair and “because Nonka is a divorcée, Mrs Nhlapho believes that the salon assistant is bad news,” adds Thuthuka. When Phelelani refuses to dump Nonka, Mrs Nhlapho calls in reinforcements.
