Legacy 2 Full Story
Sebastian Price, head of the Price family, will retire as CEO of Legacy Investments. He has been in charge of this company for 30 years. The people are waiting with bated breath to find out who will be taking over his position. Then, tragically, he dies. This sudden event leads to a power struggle between the family members.
Sebastian’s ex wife Angelique, still bitter, and his determined child Felicity go to great lengths in order to prevent Dineo from pushing her son SJ into the CEO role at Legacy Investments.
Imagine the rich characters from the HBO show Succession with a South African flair. This is like adding daily drama from The Bold And The Beautiful, and then coloring the story with the escapism of the best Brazilian Telenovelas. Jan Du Plessis is the director of M-Net and he describes Legacy in a few words.
