Etv launches series Broken Vows
It was a star studded affair as the cast dazzled the red carpet, despite the cold wet conditions at the Four Seasons at The Westcliff.
As we arrived, we were whisked off on their golf carts to the hotel’s iconic balconies with a view of the city, where the stars mingled before we went in to watch the Broken Vows boasts an impressive cast including legendary actresses: Thembi Mtshali-Jones as well as Nomsa Nene, whom we have not seen on screen for a while and look forward to seeing. Other main characters include: Joanne Reyneke, Enhle Mbali Maphumulo, Thapelo Mokoena, Emmanuelle Castis, Mandla Gaduka, Shaleen Surtie-Richards, Lehasa Moloi, Nambitha Ben-Mazwi, Sello Sebotsane and Shaleen Surtie-Richards.
The story revolves around The Moswane family (led by Matriarch, Mam’ Gertrude: played by Thembi Mtshali-Jones) and their wedding planning business called ‘Yours Truly Concepts’. The business’ daily activities are run by the family’s youngest daughter Azania (played by Enhle Mbali) and Thandi (taken in by the family when she was younger: played by JoAnne Reyneke). Thandi is Lydia’s daughter (Lydia, played by Nomsa Nene: a bitter and troubled woman with a bad relationship with the Moswane’s and her daughter).
Other members include the eldest: good son with an amazing relationship with his mother, Uhuru (played by Thapelo Mokoena).
The harmless girl-chasing beef-cake who’s not the brightest crayon in the box photogrpaher, Lebo (played by Lehasa Moloi).
