By Venecia Valentine

This March, South African television fans are bracing themselves for the much-anticipated return of The Real Housewives of Durban, a staple of Mzansi’s entertainment scene that has continued to thrive since its début. Viewers, who have been keeping up with the twists and turns of the housewives, can expect a sensational blend of drama, glamorous lifestyles and emotionally charged confrontations as the series kicks off its latest season.

The previous season’s reunion plunged audiences into speculation over the state of relationships among the housewives, particularly following the dramatic exit of housewife Sorisja Naidoo. Her emphatic declaration that she would sever ties with Jojo Robinson and Nonku Williams unless significant changes took place left fans puzzled and eager for more. Thankfully, it seems that producers have taken note, and the good news is that Naidoo is making a return to the show, promising to reignite the existing tensions and friendships that fans have come to love.

At the helm of the show are OGs Nonku and Sorisja. These two powerhouse personalities are now the longest-serving housewives in Africa, expertly curating an enthralling narrative that is filled with complex rivalries, unexpected alliances and the occasional heartwarming camaraderie. Their enduring presence has undoubtedly contributed to the show’s status, setting the stage for yet another thrilling chapter in their stories.

Fans will also see the return of Jojo, who notably contemplated leaving after Season Three. However, drawn back in by the magnetic charm and sheer unpredictability of reality television, Jojo has decided to remain a key player in the unfolding drama. Her dynamic interactions with other cast members promise to deliver the engagement and excitement that viewers crave.

As the new season unfolds, audiences can expect a series that not only showcases the opulence and glamour of Durban’s elite but also delves deeply into the intricate relationships that form the backbone of the narrative. Following the unforgettable moments of past seasons, fans of the franchise can expect a whirlwind of emotions that will keep them on the edge of their seats.
