On Friday, former SABC1 popular soapie Skeem Saam actress Lelo, a character played by Amanda du-Pont and her now ex-husband Shawn Rodrigues finalized their divi after nearly three years of marriage.

The couple had been together since 2017, but ultimately decided to part ways. This news comes as a surprise to many, as the couple had seemed very happy together. It is unclear what led to the decision to divorce, but both parties have wished each other the best for the future.

Amanda and Shawn got engaged in July 2018, and she announced the news by sharing a video on her Instagram account, she flaunted her huge engagement ring. Shawn pulled out all the stops when he popped the question in the Maldives. He whisked her off for an island picnic where he got down on one knee and popped the question. She captioned the video as a “dream come true”. Sadly it has come an end.
