“I have mastered divorce,“ Uzalo actress Gabisile ‘Baby Cele’ opens up on life after divorce. Well, the celebrated star actress Baby Cele pulled a shocker when she revealed that she is now divorced. The bubbly actress is best known for her on-screen character of Gabisile on the popular SABC1 show Uzalo. She is best known for keeping her private life under wraps. She let the cat out of the bag that she is divorced and has been healing after her divorce.
“I have mastered divorce, honestly, it doesn’t hurt anymore because I just believe that if a marriage no longer works it should end.”
Baby Cele dived into her marriage with Thabo Maleka through an interview on Engineer Your Life podcast. The actress made it known that she met her ex-husband through the sister of Thembi Mtshali in the mid-2000s. She has it that her marriage has crumbled. There is nothing more to fix.
“As a sangoma, my ancestors gave me all the signs that it was time to end the marriage, I was really happy but the signs were too loud and I had to make the decision. Right now, I am single and mingling and happy.”

Baby Cele also spoke about how it is high time middle-aged married people accept that, as humans, we are polygamous and that having one partner doesn’t work for us. She also spoke about her journey in acting and what has kept her consistent and never without a job.
In the same podcast episode, she also spoke about her spiritual journey and how she has to constantly take breaks from her spiritual work as a sangoma/healer because sometimes people come to her not because they genuinely want help but because they want to see Gabisile from Uzalo.
“You have to honour your contract, negotiate well and respect your job. Other actors are out of work all the time and complain about the industry because they get to set and become complacent. Some people don’t know their lines. Some people think the show depends on them because they have 1 million followers or they are bigger than the show. The industry doesn’t work like that,” Cele explained.
