Housekeepers: Linda’s emotional rollercoaster

We’re going through all kinds of emotions after last night’s epic episode of Housekeepers. Not only was it a sad instalment of the show, but it also made us respect the actors and how well they portray their characters. It’s not often that we see artists being so committed to their characters that we start wondering if what they’re going through on screen is reality or not. That’s how good the show has been. In case you didn’t catch any of the action, take a look at what happened.

Linda and her brother’s heartbreak

First of all, we’d just like to take our hats off to Thando Thabethe, who plays Linda on the drama series. The actress deserves all the credit and recognition she’s getting right now. Playing this role has showed Mzansi just how great this media personality’s acting skills are.

Last night, viewers watched as Linda and her younger brother dealt with the pain of losing their mother, who was murdered in prison. Not only did they have to deal with the fact that their only parent was gone, but they also had to fight with people who kept rubbing it in their faces. How do you mourn your loved one in peace when people keep telling you about what a bad person they were? That’s what Linda and her brother had to endure as their neighbours kept reminding them that their mother was a killer, which is all a lie.

How sad was it when Linda had to go to the mortuary to wash her dead mother? That was really painful to watch, and no child deserves to go through that. The pain in her eyes was unbearable and it was hard to watch.

However, as tough as everything is right now, we know that she will be fine, and that she’ll stop at nothing to get justice for her mother. At least the Ndlovu siblings have each other and that’s all that matters, right? Also, at the end of the day, they both know that their mother was a good person.

The Zwides hit with unexpected news

Peter and Boni thought they’d get their way but were soon brought back to reality after discovering that June has children. This means that their mission to get their hands on Veronica’s estate, which lawfully belonged to June, might fail.

They learned that everything June inherited could now be passed on to her children, and this is something they didn’t expect. Will they just sit there and accept the truth? Or will they come up with another plan to get what they want? Judging by their past actions – three murders to be precise – we are honestly expecting the worst from these two.

Will there be another death on the show? At this rate, anything is possible. To make sure you don’t miss a single episode, stream Housekeepers on Showmax, express from the Mzansi Magic broadcast.
