Now Since his debut as Mabutho on the river in March, ladies can’t stop drooling on dimpled actor Thembinkosi Mthembu and we get why.

He previously recurred as Shift Manager on the MTV Base drama series MTV ShugaL Down South 2, first appearing on Season 7, Episode 7 (which aired on 2 April, 2019).

The actor then made waves playing the role of Junior in the Mzansi Magic drama series The Republic and is now on The river as Mabutho.

Although he kills the role like a veteran, it must be noted that this is his first starring role in television.

The dimpled face actor has a huge female fan base, who are always hyping him on social media.

Thembinkosi also has a 21 month daughter and her presence has changed how he views the world. When she was born Thembinkosi wasn’t working which posed a challenge because he couldn’t provide for her but thankfully his mom was there to help and he wants her daughter to be educated and put herself first.
