Beautiful actress brutalised by lover for kissing another man in a play

If you don’t have the heart to watch your wife kiss another man or sleep with another man in a film, please do yourself a favour by not marrying an actress.

Beautiful actress brutalised by lover for kissing another man in a play

A South African actress is reportedly recuperating in the hospital after her jealous boyfriend beat her up beyond recognition because he watched her kiss another actor in a stage play.

Reports say 30-year-old Londiwe Ngcamu featured in a theatre production, Seven Days War, set in the 1980s. 

According to The Witness, she played the lead role of an IFP woman who fell in love with an ANC member at the Winston Churchill Theatre.

The play is said to have ended at around 10pm on Saturday, and the mother of a two-month-old baby girl and a six-year-old boy left the venue to meet her boyfriend at the bus stop.

When the two lovers arrived home, an argument ensued as a result of the kissing scene he saw in the play.

“We had just come back from the theatre after our performance, and I was chilling with my cast members at the clubhouse in Sobantu, where some of our cast members who live far away stay during shows.

“At around 10.30 pm I got a call from home informing me that my baby was restless, so I had to rush home,” the brutalised actress told The Witness from her hospital bed.

Londiwe Ngcamu said her abuser then called and offered to accompany her home, and she agreed.

“When we got to his home the gate was closed, and he pushed me onto the gate to open it.

“One of his friends and [that man’s] girlfriend were there, but they did nothing to help me.

“They saw him beating me up but stood and watched for a while before they left.

“When we got to his room he threw me on the floor and started beating me. He banged my head on the ground and used his fists and knee to hit my face. He even used the small suitcase I had with me to hit me on my face.” She revealed.

Londiwe added: “I was so scared and kept on begging him not to kill me, but he kept on going. It went on for hours.

“While beating me up, he was shouting to one of his relatives who was in another outside building that he must help him dig my grave because he was going to kill me.

“When he got exhausted he would lie down on his bed to rest and gather his strength, then start beating me all over again.”

It got scarier when she realised that he had a knife, and she tried to grab it.

“I can’t remember what happened to the knife but I have a huge cut on my palm and I think it was from when I grabbed the knife.

“He then pulled out an axe and asked me if I would prefer that he used the axe to slit my throat or to cut off my fingers. I thought he was going to kill me. I kept on praying, asking God to spare my life.”

She only got the chance to escape after the violent lover had fallen asleep again.

She said she went to her sisters in her brutalised state, and they took her to the hospital and subsequently made a report the Mountain Rise police station.

Police spokesperson, Captain Nqobile Gwala confirmed the incident, saying investigation is underway.
