The actress who took on the role of Sphilile in the show became a household name due to her performance on the show, and people became invested in her personal life. Tee Xaba's age shocks Mzansi as they find out she is younger than she looks.
Tee Xaba took on the character of Sphilile on Uzalo in 2019. Her character was introduced when Gabisile wanted her son hitched to a girl of her choice. She then personally went on a quest to find a woman she wanted to settle down with her son, Sbonelo.
In her quest, Gabisile found Sphilile, and she was her choice because she was soft-spoken and came from a reputable family. She thought she had found the perfect match for her doctor of a son. They did get married to the joy of Gabisile, but it did not last because Sbonelo's heart was with another woman, Nonka. They separated, and he followed his heart and pursued the woman he truly desired.
