Jill Levenberg

[2] At the age of six, Levenberg made her debut on stage, singing at the Kensington Civic Center.

Levenberg performed in several plays in her early career, including Medea, Blood Brothers and Orpheus in Africa, receiving a Fleur du Cap Theatre Award for Best Supporting Actress in a Musical for the last role.

[3] In 2020, Levenberg suggested that the show explore a polygamy storyline, so her on-screen husband AB (Cedwyn Joel) took a second wife, Farah (Lee-Ann van Rooi).

Levenberg first began following the story in 2007, and rather than judging her, understood where she was coming from due to the drug problem in Cape Town.

[3] Levenberg gives free yoga and drama classes to at-risk youth in Cape Town.
