Simz Ngema

Five years after actor and singer Dumi Masilela was shot dead, his widow and actress Simz Ngema commemorated his memory with a tribute song.

I love you both with all my heart,” she wrote at the time. You’ve brought hope and purpose to my life, Tino. I will forever be grateful to you for this beautiful gift and for teaching me how to love again. Speaking to MacG about Tino, Simz said she loved the father of her child more than Dumi. She reasoned that losing Dumi had taught her to love better because she has personal experience of how humans live on borrowed time.
