Season 3

Season 1 explored a polygamous marriage and the interpersonal dramas of a family in a state of flux. It was during this season that polygamist Mnqobi introduced his third wife Khwezi, oblivious to her devious intentions.

Season 2 saw Khwezi, along with her uncle Welcome, put their plan into action, leaving the Simelanes in tatters. Dumile made sure she discovered Khwezi's identity, but it was too late as Mnqobi had already lost his first wife Cebisile and his entire family's lives were in danger. In the end, Khwezi held Mnqobi and Dumile hostage, forcing him to shoot Dumile.

Picking up from Season 2's final episode cliffhanger, the third season of Umlilo returns with more conflict, tears, love, regret and revenge.

Thembi, previously known as Khwezi, is trying to get out of prison but has to overcome obstacles in the form of the Simelanes, her lawyer and her past.

Mnqobi tries to regain composure, but digs a deeper hole for himself while still trying to hide the truth. Dumile tries to pull herself together with the support of Spikiri. Andile goes to University hoping her family drama will not follow her. Mqobi's troubles mount when the Minister returns for revenge.

Joining the cast in Season 3 are Khanyi Mbau as Palesa Tladi, the state prosecutor on a mission to put Thembi behind bars; Mzwandile Ngubeni as Vuyo, Thembi's arrogant and charming lawyer; and Matthew Monika as Edward, the judge and Vuyo's father.

Also joining in Season 3 are Phumello Nkosi as Mnqobi's cousin and right hand man, Mthandeni Simelane; and Sobantu Nqayi as Dr. Zuko, who eventually forms a relationship with Andile which brings new leads to the case.
