The Royalty Soapie Award-nominated actor joins the SABC1 soapie Generations: The Legacy. In her debut scene, Marakalla places flowers on Sphe Moroka’s (played by Pearl Monama) car and lambastes her for not being “woman enough” for Winston (played by Lehasa Moloi).According to a TVSA teaser on Tuesday, Marakalla could be Winston’s ally.

“Winston might be gone, but Sphe’s nightmare is far from over…” the teaser reads.

 

Sphe and Winston were in a relationship, but things went south when she discovered his murderous ways.

Marakalla, who played the character of troublesome Rachel Kunutu for almost a decade, left Skeem Saam in 2020, citing that she wanted to take a break from acting to return to school full-time. She made her last appearance in the soapie on 19 June.

Since her open-ended exit, her family occasionally receives updates about her possible whereabouts. Most recently, Rachel was said to be in Cuba, studying medicine.
