Some things go together naturally. Bread and cheese.ย ๐Ÿž Fuzzy warm blankets on cold days.ย โ„๏ธย  Braais and beer.ย  ๐Ÿบ You get the picture. Okay now imagine a scenario if Petra did not have Sanele as a BFF on Legacy? Or if Robbie didnโ€™t have bestie Cranston at his side, also on Legacy? That is simply unimaginable! There are a few charactersย weโ€™ve seen across our shows that deserve the best sidekick award for 2021 and here they are.

Number five

Angeliqueโ€™s dog, Bella on Legacyย 
This little floof literally sits on the lap of luxury. When James threatened the family, she was put in a five-star doggy hotel for safety.

Unfortunately for Felicity though it is also Bella who dug up her fatherโ€™s bones from the rose garden. The father she buried there and it set things in motion for the second season of the show.

Number four

Legacyโ€™s Cranston and Robbie
Cranston and Robbie is the bromance we wish we all had, truly! Cranston is funny, warm and incredibly supportive of his friend discovering that he is actually a part of the Price family.

Number three

The ginger cutie pie on Love Island South Africa
As Tania and Ross were chatting in the aftermath of a surprise recoupling, the gorgeous ginger cat stole the show.



Number two

The Bacheloretteโ€™s show host, Jason Greer
South Africaโ€™s Bachelorette Qiniso Van Damme and show host Jason Greer have a bond like no other. And it warms up our souls.

Greerโ€™s reaction here is priceless!



Number one

Sanele on Legacy

This comes as no surprise that Sanele, Petraโ€™s friend on Legacy takes the top spot. He is always there for her and telling her hard truths she doesnโ€™t want to face. He becomes a part of the Potgieter family so easily.
