I took a huge step in my life and what a beautiful way to do it. @suitability_ you outdid yourself with the venue and decor izandla zidlula ikhanda. To everyone who came through thank you very much. God Bless You. ”

But fans of The River star are still puzzled by his wedding pictures and videos and as there appear to be no guests at his wedding. Biyela’s fans predict he was shooting a music video shoot or is promoting a brand as there appear to be no family members present.

The talented actor Vuyo Biyela, who played fan-favourite character Mlilo Hlophe in The River exited the telenovela in May. His character got killed by Lindiwe Dlamini (Sindi Dlathu).

Biyela who received a Royalty Soapie Award for his role told Drum in July 2022 that it’s only by the grace of God that he is on such a big show eight months after getting into the industry.

“People were saying hurtful things on social media, but I had to soldier on. I come from a theatre background, so the style of acting is different, and I had to tone it down for TV. I get where the viewers were coming from, they had their faves they wanted to see more of,” he says.

“Also, we came in as the new family in a show that is already five seasons in. Viewers have an understanding of how each character behaves and so the shock factor also played a part. But some of the comments were not just about not liking the characters. Some were becoming tribalistic and feeding into stereotypes about Zulu people being violent, loud, and barbaric. The truth is, the establishment is never easy.”
