The Mommy Club S2 Reunion | Binge now
TV presenter, actress and singer Ntombee Ngcobo-Mzolo is the host of the reunion special of The Mommy Club S2, which is currently available to binge on Showmax.
The Mommy Club set the record for the most social media views of any reality series on Showmax and has seen the entire cast trend at the same time on X when a new episode drops.
The dramatic Season 2 reunion was heated, with moments that left the audience gagged, including the epic showdown between arch nemesis Mrs Mops and Ratile Mabitsela, who went back and forth about who is fake between the two of them. We also saw Ratile’s helper Barbra coming to tell her side of the story about what went wrong in their household.
The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip – South Africa | Binge episodes 1-4 now
The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip – South Africa went straight to the top of the charts on Showmax and X when it launched four weeks ago. Now in its fourth week, the Showmax Original takes eight of South Africa’s finest Housewives to Jamaica: Beverley Steyn (The Real Housewives of Cape Town S1); Christall Kay (The Real Housewives of Johannesburg S1-2); LaConco (The Real Housewives of Durban S1-2); Lethabo Lejoy Mathatho (The Real Housewives of Johannesburg S2-3); Liz Prins (The Real Housewives of Gqeberha S1); Londie London (The Real Housewives of Durban S2); Melany Viljoen (The Real Housewives of Pretoria S1); and Nonku Williams (The Real Housewives of Durban S1-4).
Over the past four weeks, we have seen the ladies live it up in Jamaica and witnessed some of The Real Housewives’ most iconic fights, including Christall vs Beverly: the former besties called off their friendship because Christall claims that Bev is two-faced and that she did not protect her in Jamaica like she had promised to.
