Skeem Saam is heating up — but not in the way fans might have hoped. The popular Mzansi soapie has always delivered gripping drama. Still, lately, things are crossing the line from entertaining to downright messy. DJ Thomas and Mapitsi’s secret affair is spiralling out of control. Now it’s starting to poison their work environment at Berry FM. What was once a private fling is becoming an embarrassing workplace circus.

In a recent episode, we witnessed just how far things have gone off the rails. DJ Thomas was seen wandering around the office half-naked after a steamy encounter nearly got exposed. And who almost caught them in the act? None other than Tbose himself. Seriously, what were they thinking?

A Mix of Business & Pleasure on Skeem Saam
Mixing business with pleasure has always been a recipe for disaster for the Skeem Saam couple. If they were determined to cheat, they should’ve kept it behind closed hotel doors — not drag their mess into the workplace. Now, their antics are disrupting the station’s flow, and it’s starting to show. During an important interview with Bra Boikie, Mapitsi was visibly distracted, lost in thoughts of DJ Thomas and their recent close call.

But how is that fair to her colleagues? Her unprofessionalism isn’t just damaging her reputation — it’s affecting the entire team and Berry FM’s credibility. And poor Tbose… the red flags are practically slapping him in the face. The video is already doing the rounds, yet Mapitsi still tried to cover up for DJ Thomas, claiming he was at home. If that’s not a red flag, what is?

At this point, it’s not just about cheating. Their affair is creating a toxic work environment and hurting innocent people in the process. Berry FM is a place of business, not a lovers’ hideout. DJ Thomas and Mapitsi need to face the consequences before they destroy more than just their own lives.

Meanwhile, over at Inimba, Zoleka is also blurring the lines between personal loyalty and professionalism. She used her influence to give Hlathi a leg up at work — and let’s be honest, it didn’t look good. Yes, we all want to see people rise, but not when it comes at the cost of fairness. It’s no wonder Thumeka is fuming. What Zoleka did reeks of favouritism, and in any workplace, that’s a ticking time bomb.

Zoleka may believe she’s helping, but when your personal connections start steering professional decisions, people will notice — and they’ll talk. She needs to be smarter about how she wields her power because this wasn’t a good move at all.
