Is Thulani and Anathi Leaving Gqeberha the Empire?

Nozuko got her hands on some crucial files—a voice recording where Anathi confesses her love for Thulani. She rushed to Luzuko, and this time, he believed her. Feeling betrayed, Luzuko, with Nozuko’s encouragement, decided to take drastic action. He brutally beat up Thulani, tied up his fourth wife, Anathi, and threw them both overboard, setting their boat on fire to stage a tragic accident.

Later, Luzuko held a memorial service for them, even though their bodies haven’t been found since the explosion. Fans are still in shock, hoping Thulani and Anathi somehow survived, but with each episode, that hope is fading.

Gqeberha the Empire

Gqeberha: The Empire is a South African TV series that replaced The Queen on Mzansi Magic. The show, set in Gqeberha (formerly known as Port Elizabeth), centers around the powerful Mxenge family as they deal with love, power, and betrayal. It first aired on January 16, 2023, with 260 episodes per season. The series is produced by Tshedza Pictures, known for other popular shows like The River and Adulting.

Gqeberha the Empire Plot

Gqeberha: The Empire follows the story of Luzuko Mxenge, a wealthy businessman with power, love, and respect. He is married to three very different wives: Bulelwa, Zimkhitha, and Nozuko. Despite having everything, Luzuko wants more, and he marries a fourth wife, Anathi, who is also his son Thulani’s love interest.

In Season 2, the drama intensifies as Zimkhitha takes the lead, and new characters like Vuyokazi, a junior police officer, and her daughter Lulama, join the mix. Vuyokazi investigates the Mxenge family’s crimes, while Lulama's obsession with Thulani brings more tension. Stokkie, another character, falls for Yoliswa, who manipulates him into committing crimes, but she is eventually arrested. The season delves deeper into themes of family, power, and redemption, with complex relationships and dramatic twists.
