Cape Town – Actress Sophie Ndaba has been hospitalised after breaking her ankle during a golf outing with friends.
She shared a video from her hospital bed on Sunday, revealing she needed surgery to repair the injury.
Sophie, who lives with diabetes, expressed gratitude for her life and resilience, emphasising that the accident, though serious, could have been worse.
She reflected on the process of recovery and her determination to embrace life’s challenges.
“Woke up in hospital. One minute I’m walking and one minute, I’ve got a broken ankle. I want to remind you that some storms are not there to break you, I think some storms are there to slow you down. Some storms are there to restructure you,” she said.

Sophie added: “When I looked at the process of the operation and the process of putting steel things in my ankle and the process of the cement and crutches being brought to me I realised life is a process. I’ve decided to embrace it because when I look at where I’m coming from I’m like dear Lord, what is a broken ankle? I still have my life, I still have my humour, and I still have so much to be thankful for, so I want to take this opportunity to thank God. It could have been worse.”
