Asavela’s firstborn

In 2020, the actress shared on her Instagram page that she was expecting her first baby. 

She said working while she was pregnant was scary for her, but the “risk assessments” that the production put in place made it easy as it was during the pandemic.

“The best thing I’ve ever done. I can’t wait to meet you. Taking you to set was kinda scary, but with all the risk assessments the team @bomb_productions put in place, I feel confident and happy to introduce you to the world.”

“I’m going to call you umfihlo (secret) lol because of the level of secrecy that we share. Thank you @zwabheka for the continuous support you have given US😭❤️ To all the mothers (new + pregnant) out there, stay safe, healthy, and strong in these difficult times🙏🏽❤️’

Her beautiful home

Posting a picture of her house, Asavela said her in-laws named her Kwanda (which loosely translates to increase), saying that’s what she plans to do.

She also thanked her husband for their effort to build their beautiful home.

Sengingasho kugcwale ngithi saze sawakha umuzi wethu. Sisebenzile myen wam [I can proudly say that we’ve built ourselves a home. We did a good job my husband].”
