**Businesswoman Pearl Mbewe has issued a heartfelt apology after revealing details about her estranged husband Sello Maake KaNcube’s alleged infidelity.**
Pearl Mbewe’s Public Apology
On December 15, Pearl Mbewe took to her Instagram Story to apologize for the public fallout following her allegations against her husband, legendary actor Sello Maake KaNcube.
“I genuinely apologize to my family, my children, true friends, and all those I may have disappointed! We all fall and tumble along the way. The truth shall set all of us free!” she wrote.
Mbewe expressed her intention to withdraw from the negativity surrounding the situation, emphasizing the importance of maintaining her dignity.
“I’ve elected to withdraw and allow my inner child to experience pride. This necessitates distancing myself from negativity. Numerous misunderstandings occurred; one cannot effectively contend with someone who has nothing to lose. We are all approaching life’s twilight years; this is not the legacy my grandfather wished to leave his grandchildren. I don’t only represent myself but our generations to come,” she added.
## Sello Maake KaNcube Responds
In an earlier interview, Sello Maake KaNcube opened up about the difficulties he faced in his marriage to Mbewe.
“I tried to make this marriage work in fear that people will judge me. I’ve been dealing with so much hell in this relationship. I am done. I want to get out of that marriage,” he said.
The actor, known for his iconic roles in South African television, described his marriage as tumultuous, claiming he was portrayed as a happily married man on social media while enduring personal struggles.
“She was managing the social media. I was presented as someone who was happily married when actually I lived a life of hell,” he revealed.
## The End of Their Marriage
The couple, who tied the knot in a traditional lobola ceremony in 2021, have reportedly been living separately since July 2023. Legal proceedings for their divorce began earlier this year, with Maake KaNcube seeking assistance from attorneys in March. Mbewe engaged with the same legal team in October to expedite the process.
This marks Maake KaNcube’s second failed marriage. His first union, with Palesa Mboweni, ended just eight months after their 2015 wedding.
## Public Reaction
The public has expressed mixed reactions to the end of the marriage, with many sympathizing with both parties. The situation has sparked discussions on relationships, infidelity, and the challenges of navigating public life as a couple.
## A Legacy at Stake
For both Maake KaNcube and Mbewe, the fallout has been a lesson in managing personal issues while preserving their legacy. As Mbewe stated in her apology, this chapter is a chance for reflection and growth as they part ways to pursue peace and happiness independently.
The saga of their relationship underscores the complexities of love, fame, and resilience in the face of adversity.
