Untied S1

From multi-award winners GOAT (Unfollowed), Untied explores the deeply personal and often complex experience of divorce, told through the voices of women who have lived it.

Hosted by Relebogile Mabotja, the first episode of Untied focuses on businesswoman Norma Gigaba.

In addition to Norma, Untied features a powerful lineup of South African public figures, each sharing raw, unfiltered perspectives on the emotional toll of divorce. Reality TV stars Beverly Steyn and Nonku Williams, actresses Dawn Thandeka King, Mona Monyane and Palesa Madisakwane, media personality Zandi Nhlapo and model Sonia Booth all open up about how their lives were turned upside down after separating from the men they once believed would be there forever.

Through raw, honest, and emotionally charged conversations, Untied offers a rare window into the realities of separation, from the pivotal moments that led to the end of their marriages, to the challenges and victories that come with rebuilding life on their own terms.
