9 July 2025

The Real Housewives of Durban's most shocking reunion moment

Part 1 of The Real Housewives of Durban Season 5 reunion gave us answers and plenty of drama, but according to the cast, we haven’t seen anything yet.

From the unresolved tension between friends of the show Precious and Minnie Ntuli to the cheating allegations Fafa’s husband made on camera, and Nonku’s absence, the first part of the reunion was explosive, but the drama is only just beginning.

In the trailer for Part 2, emotions run high as the cast reacts to a moment so intense, it’s had fans speculating ever since it dropped last week Friday.

We sat down with OG Sorisha Naidoo, and Season 2 veterans Jojo Robinson and Londie London to find out how it all really went down and why this moment is the most shocking they have ever experienced on the show, on and off camera.

Here’s what they had to say.

Jojo Robinson

“No one could have prepared me for that moment. I’ve never seen anything like it on this show or in real life. It left me emotional, confused, and honestly, heartbroken. What happened wasn’t okay. It crossed a line.”

Londie London

“It felt like time stopped. Watching it unfold in front of me was surreal. It gave me the clarity I didn’t even know I needed, and it validated so many of my feelings. I left that day seeing everything differently.”

Sorisha Naidoo

“I’ve been here since day one, and I’ve seen a lot, but nothing like this. It was disturbing, full stop. We are women who have been through so much, and to witness something that dark and damaging… it was heartbreaking. We’re better than that.”

The moment that shook the cast to their core airs this Friday. Don’t miss Part 2 of the reunion, only on Showmax.
