Mogau Motlhatswi Responds to ‘Skeem Saam’ Backlash Over Cheating Storyline** ByLisa Lee May 12, 2025 #Skeem Saam South African actress Mogau Motlhatswi, best known for her long-standing role as Mapitsi Maputla on the popular SABC1 drama *Skeem Saam*, has broken her silence regarding the recent controversy surrounding her character. In a heartfelt interview, Motlhatswi addressed the intense reactions sparked by Mapitsi’s latest storyline, which has divided fans and ignited passionate debate online. ### A Character Under Fire Mapitsi, typically portrayed as a devoted wife and mother, has recently shocked audiences by engaging in an affair with a colleague, betraying her husband Thabo Maputla (played by Hungani Ndlovu). The storyline quickly became a trending topic on social media, with fans expressing a mix of outrage, disbelief, and curiosity. “I’ve received so many mixed reactions — some viewers are angry, others are glued to the screen because they want to see how it all unfolds,” Motlhatswi shared. On platforms like X (formerly Twitter), fans didn’t hold back. One comment read, “Mapitsi is embarrassing herself. After everything Tbose has done for her?” The betrayal has sparked intense criticism, with many calling the storyline a departure from the character’s core values. ### Embracing the Drama Despite the backlash, Motlhatswi remains grounded and even sees the controversy as a testament to her work. “If people are this passionate about the character, then it means I’m portraying her truthfully,” she explained. According to her, generating such strong emotions means she’s connecting with the audience and doing justice to the role. The actress emphasized the complexity of playing Mapitsi, a woman juggling her career, marriage, motherhood—and now moral conflict. “It’s not easy playing someone who’s both loved and hated,” she admitted. Life Imitates Art In an interesting twist, Motlhatswi recently announced her real-life pregnancy, sharing the news on Instagram to widespread joy and support from fans. Like Mapitsi, she is also a wife and mother, which has led many to draw parallels between the actress and her on-screen persona. However, fans have praised Motlhatswi for handling both her career and personal life with elegance and grace. From Limpopo to Stardom Born and raised in Limpopo, Mogau Motlhatswi has become one of South Africa’s most recognizable television stars. Her portrayal of Mapitsi has spanned years and continues to evolve, sparking both admiration and controversy. The role has demanded emotional depth and nuance, qualities that Motlhatswi brings to the screen with skill and authenticity. ### A Storyline That Keeps Mzansi Talkin While the *Skeem Saam* audience remains deeply divided over Mapitsi’s actions, one thing is clear: Mogau Motlhatswi’s performance continues to drive powerful conversations. Her ability to bring vulnerability and realism to a fictional character makes her one of the standout talents in South African television today. As the storyline unfolds, viewers will be watching closely to see where Mapitsi’s journey leads—and whether redemption is still possible.
