Stephanie speaks out amid split with Hungani

Actress and content creator Stephanie Ndlovu has broken her silence following her separation from fellow actor and husband, Hungani Ndlovu.

In a viral video on social media, Stephanie opened up about the emotional toll the past week has taken on her.

The actress described the online abuse she has received as the worst she’s ever experienced, adding that she was dragged for the kind of mother she is, wife she was and Christian she is.

The couple, who tied the knot in 2019 and quickly became a fan-favourite had been rumoured to have broken up last year.

The rumour, which recently gained traction and became a talking point on social media, saw Hungani officially announce their separation in a heartfelt statement on Instagram.

Stephanie also took a moment for her best friend, Petronella Tshuma, whom many claimed was the cause of the couple’s breakup.

“It is one thing for you guys to drag me and who you think I am, it’s another thing for you guys to pull someone else who has nothing to do with Hungani and I [Stephanie]’s decision,” she said.

“It is so unfair and hurtful that she now has to deal with something that had nothing to do with her and has no involvement in. It is really unfair, you guys are attacking her character, attacking her as a person, as a mother, you are finding every single loophole to reach her, no matter how much we try to navigate it.”

Stephanie has slammed, what she deems as, lies being spread about her best friend.

@grok so a Casting Director can just select someone for a role because of not necessarily their acting ability but for some nefarious reasons ? I’m asking this question because of the Hungani and Stephanie Ndlovu?
