NO CLUES FROM THE SKEEM SAAM TEAM OR TEASERS
Unfortunately, the April teasers shared by the Skeem Saam page on X reveal no information about Paxton’s injury. There’s no mention of whether he will recover or if he might be permanently disabled. The lack of teasers about this storyline has sparked rumors, with some fans speculating that the silence could suggest a long-term plot twist regarding Paxton’s injury.
SOCIAL MEDIA REACTIONS: ‘KARMA OR TOO FAR?’
Reactions from viewers have been mixed. While some feel sympathy for Paxton, many believe his suffering is a result of the chaos he has caused throughout the show:
@Zama: “I don’t feel sorry for Pax. I wonder if he’ll be permanently disabled though.”
@lmao: “Gopane knocked Paxton’s knees with that little hammer he used to carry around.”
@ananuki18: “I’m so glad Pax won’t have his mobility anymore. He’s such a troublemaker—everything he touches gets ruined.”
@mpume: “This is definitely karma. Pax is such a horrible kid, he stole Mosebjadi’s project and made Lewatle lie to her dad. Serves him right.”
@hillyy: “I know Pax is a brat, but he’s just a kid. He didn’t deserve this. I wonder if he’ll ever be able to walk again.”
SKEEM SAAM’S ‘IT’ COUPLE…AND THEN?… PRETTY CALLS OFF THE ENGAGEMENT
As if that wasn’t enough drama, Pretty dropped another bombshell by requesting to be removed as Lehasa’s proxy and calling off the lobola negotiations. She discovered that he had been cheating on her with his in-prison doctor, Dr. Blue. The betrayal shocked viewers, especially since many had been rooting for the couple, Prehasa (Pretty and Lehasa).
With so many unanswered questions, viewers are left on edge, eagerly waiting to see if Skeem Saam will address Paxton’s condition. For now, we can only wonder: is Paxton’s fate sealed, or is there still hope for his recovery?
