“It’s important because they have been through a lot of ups and downs, especially with Nhlamulo’s ‘career choice’, his past actions and where it all led. Them living a normal life is ultimately the biggest reason for the straight and narrow.” But Nhlamulo’s past isn’t ready to let go just yet.

“It was a beautiful time and now they’re ready to start their lives together,” explains Matthews. But his character is unemployed at the moment and that adds some pressure.

“He is looking for jobs. He’ll take anything I suppose, but he has experience in IT and tech. He can walk the walk and talk the talk, he just needs a chance,” says the actor.
