Harriet Manamela opens up about why she took a break from shooting Skeem Saam.
Harriet, who plays Meikie Maputla on the local drama series, Skeem Saam has shared how she had a hip replacement earlier this year as her reason for her having to take a break from shooting.
The SABC shared in February that while Harriet was healing, actress Flo Masebe would take over. Manamela announced the news of her hip replacement surgery recuperation in an Instagram post.
“May I take this moment to say I have recovered 🙏.
I had a hip replacement surgery beginning of the year hence I was given a break from shooting. Thank you to everyone for wishing me well even though there was no clear explanation why I had to be off the screen & production had to find a sit in for me. Your support and wishing me well humbles my heart & you all much appreciated.🌸 Now that production is on a shooting break it’s more time to enjoy seeing people & catching up 😘”
