MaBlerh returns to host The Real Housewives of Durban reunion
Showmax has announced that MaBlerh will host The Real Housewives of Durban reunion for the third year in a row.
The Season 5 finale of The Real Housewives of Durban dropped on 13 June 2025. Unsurprisingly, it broke the internet and became the number-one trending topic in South Africa, with several cast members trending at the same time.
After an eventful and dramatic season, the ladies had their final dinner during their trip to Mauritius, where they sat down and addressed some of the unresolved tensions between them. From old wounds to fresh betrayals, it was an emotionally charged evening that had everyone talking.
The dinner took a turn when someone handed Nonku an anonymous letter, prompting her to leave the table, which left viewers with plenty of unanswered questions. The contents of the letter have not been revealed, and fans have been speculating ever since about who wrote it and what their intentions were. The fallout was immediate, and tensions escalated as the episode came to a close, setting the stage for a reunion that promises to deliver serious confrontation and, hopefully, some closure.

The drama is far from over, as Showmax will air the reunion in two parts, on 4 July and 11 July 2025. The reunion will bring the cast face to face once again, where long-standing feuds and unresolved storylines will be put under the microscope.
“The show has a lot of loyal viewers, and I intend to step in and represent all of their views. They have burning questions that need answers,” says MaBlerh, the first African to host multiple reunions in The Real Housewives franchise, including The Real Housewives of Gqeberha S1 and The Real Housewives of Johannesburg S3. “Being back for the third time is an honour I don’t take lightly. It’s a big job that requires sensitivity, because these ladies are opening up and sharing their lives with us, so some of the topics are deeply personal.”

Known for his cool composure and ability to ask the tough questions while keeping the tone respectful, MaBlerh has earned a reputation as the go-to host for The Real Housewives reunions in South Africa.
MaBlerh promises that he won’t be holding back. “This year, I’m making sure that no stone is left unturned. Everyone needs to be held accountable for what they’ve said and done, so we can reach real resolution,” he says. “Accountability is key. This is not just about drama for the sake of entertainment, it’s about honesty, clarity, and sometimes even healing.”
MaBlerh says he’s been following all the tweets and comments from viewers and will bring them into the reunion. “I’m there to represent the viewers. I’ve seen the tweets, I’ve read the comments and concerns – and trust me, everything will be addressed,” he says. “People have been asking the same questions week after week. I hear them. And I’m going to ask those same questions in that reunion chair.”
