There have been recent rumors circulating about a major casting change on Skeem Saam, with speculation that Lungelo Mpangase would be replacing Lerato Marabe, who plays Pretty Seakamela. Fans were concerned, as Pretty has been a pivotal character on the show for over a decade.
However, Skeem Saam has confirmed that these rumors are unfounded. Lerato Marabe is not leaving, and will continue in her beloved role. The rumors of Mpangase stepping into Pretty’s shoes were dismissed as a case of social media exaggeration.
In addition, there were also claims that Cedric Fourie, who plays Lehasa, would be exiting the show after his character’s sentencing. However, this too was clarified—both actors are staying, much to the relief of dedicated viewers.
This confirmation reassures fans that no drastic changes are happening, and the show’s core characters remain intact. It’s a reminder to take online rumors with caution and enjoy the unfolding drama without worrying about unexpected cast changes.
