South African Actor ‘Bra Eddie’ Reported Dead

South Africa has lost another arts giant, as veteran actor Sandy Mokwena, popularly known as Bra Eddie, has died, Times Live reports.

News of his death is coming just 2 days after it was announced that legendary jazz musician Hugh Masekela had passed.

“The Scandal! production and cast are deeply upset because he has been on the show since episode one, which was 13 years ago. He’s the longest running actor on the show,” the Scandal! team said.
