Actress Luyanda Zwane hilariously spills the beans on her exit from Mzansi Wethu’s beloved telenovela, ‘Sibongile and The Dlaminis’, and spills the tea on why she bid farewell to the fan-favorite TV show.
She informs ZiMoja that her departure from the show is due to personal reasons, but assures him that she fulfilled her commitment for season one. “I chose not to renew my contract for season two after completing my season one obligations,” she casually mentioned without delving into specifics.

An insider revealed that she was allegedly “tough to work with, and people had to navigate around her,” the insider states. “She is a young, beautiful and very talented girl, but she just needs to work on her attitude going forward. There were many complaints from actors on the set and how rude she was.”
Luyanda says people will always talk and have opinions; she does not recall a single time she was a drama queen. “People will always have opinions on how they experience you. I have never heard anyone on any set complain about me being a drama queen,” she says. “Those who know me know how I am. I don’t pay too much attention to negativity. Everyone experiences people differently.”
