Connie’s got a boyfriend, but Hillside newcomer Braam might be winning her over.

Everyone loves a happy ending and it’s even better when a troubled character finds the love they didn’t know they needed. That’s hopefully on the cards for boutique boss Connie (Quinne Brown Huffman), whose relationships have been nothing short of atrocious in the last few years. So it’s a breath of fresh air when Braam (Pietie Beyers, Roelof Schoeman in Afrikaans drama miniseries Siende Blind, 2020) can’t stop smiling Connie’s way.

And Braam has a heart of gold too – the nice guy drove into The Laan recently when he rescued Ivy (Nazli George) following her car accident. “Ivy saw him as this angel,” says Pietie. “He later met her again at Beleef deli and she thanked Braam with a tasty meal.” It was at Beleef where Braam spotted his own angel: Connie. “His heart was beating wildly when he saw her. He immediately thought she was the woman for him,” reveals the actor.
