The return of Londie London as a friend has fans excited on the Real Housewives of Durban (RHOD), which is serving drama, glitz, and jaw-dropping moments this season.
The 31-year-old singer, influencer, and businessman is back to shake things up. She recently roasted Helen Zille on The Showmax Roast of Helen Zille.
Known for her trendsetting fashion and striking selfies since 2015, Londie has evolved from social media star to a signed artist and hair business owner.
Now a single mother of two after divorce, Londie is ready to reclaim the spotlight.
“It feels wonderful to be back, especially in a comfortable space in my life,” said Londie.
Managing different personalities
Reflecting on her RHOD journey, she stated: “The show has changed drastically. It is not just the new faces; the energy is different. I am focused on bringing positivity and sharing my rediscovery as a single mom.”
Londie’s assertive demeanour appears to stir up controversy.
“Some women didn’t expect my return. Being a public figure adds a layer; people form opinions from the media [stories they read] without truly knowing me,” she said.
Her straightforward nature often sparks tension, particularly with Nonku Williams, the veteran of the show.
“We are both strong personalities, and Nonku doesn’t always take accountability well. I say things as they are, which can be uncomfortable,” Londie explained.
Navigating RHOD’s unpredictable dynamics is tougher than the roast, she admitted.
“The Housewives demands emotional strength. The roast was fun; everyone was there to laugh. But here [RHOD], you are constantly managing different personalities.”
The group needs my saas
Her fallout with newcomer Minnie Ntuli shocked her. “I didn’t expect things to sour so fast. Fans will have to watch to see how it unfolds,” she teased.
Despite clashes, Londie maintains bonds with castmates like Nonku, Jojo Robinson, and Sorisha Naidoo.
“Sorisha holds a special place in my heart. I love and respect her deeply,” she shared.
As for the reunion, Londie is ready with “the perfect dress” and no filter. “I’ll address everything that needs to be said.”
Fans are clamouring for her full-time return and games. “I love a challenge, and the group needs my sass and spice to keep it exciting,” she said.
