Viewers of the Showmax telenovela The Wife predict Mqhele (Wiseman Mncube) will kill his wife Hlomu (Mbalenhle Mavimbela) as he's abusive and they're both toxic towards each other. This is after she lied about Qhawe (Kwenzo Ngcobo) being their daughter's biological father numerous times.

WILL HLOMU GET KILLED? The Wife fans finally found out on today's episode (Thursday, 26 January) that Hlomu fell pregnant with her brother-in-law Qhawe's baby back in season two. This is after she lied to her husband Mqhele about sleeping with him and after the sangoma revealed that the baby is a Zulu.
While audiences understand Mqhele is in pain, they are blaming him for everything as he beat up Hlomu in season one until she miscarried his baby.
--
Mqhele is still jealous and abusive in season three as recently smacked her in front of their family, which has led to her being an alcoholic.
Fans of the Showmax telenovela predict that he will eventually kill her this season as he can't control his anger and he's humiliated about his brother being his daughter's biological father'.

MORE REACTIONS FROM THE WIFE' FANS @MphoMoalamedi:
I want Mqhele's heart to break every day. I want him to experience the pain he put Hlomu through, his tears mean nothing.
@Queen_Enny19:
I am not mad that they are making all of this Mqhele's fault because it kinda is his fault, this man has abused Mahlomu to the point where she had to miscarry her first pregnancy, and he beat her up in front of his brothers and r*ped her.
@__kate__d:
Finally, something to break Mqhele's heart into pieces! After all, he's done to Hlomu, he deserves nothing!!!! Wenza kahle futhi ashaye amataxi driver nabo Ntsika, aphume nje kuMahlomu!

You just know that things are BAD when Hlomu went looking for the bottles of wine that she threw away in the dustbin. It's sad to see what Mqhele has done to her. She now finds sanity and calm in alcohol. I need my girl to get up. #TheWifeShowmax pic.twitter.com/3pZUk4gd02
