GQEBERHA REAL HOUSEWIVES DIVAS

BY PHUMLANI SAUL

The Real Housewives of Gqeberha is the fifth instalment of the global franchise in South Africa and joins Real Housewives of Durban, Cape Town, Johannesburg and Pretoria.

“Since its debut in 2017, the local Real Housewives universe has been a hit with our audiences, bringing drama, wit and glamour to our screens,” says Shirley Adonisi, Director of Local Entertainment Channels at M-Net.

In addition to the five housewives below, the channel says more cast members will be announced in due course.

Meet the cast:

UNATHI FAKU


Self-proclaimed Gqeberha royalty, Unathi is no shrinking violet. As a successful salon owner and the wife of the city’s former mayor, she is comfortable in the public eye and having her every move watched. A gym lover whose social media pages are peppered with fitness snaps, she’s also a dedicated and doting mother.

Norma Nicol

Career-focused and fierce, when Norma isn’t running things as events planner at Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium, she’s a dedicated wife and mom. Married into Ghanaian royalty, Norma is the real deal when it comes to glitz and glam. She stylishly juggles many roles without breaking a nail.

Buli G Ngomane

In-demand MC, high-end events planner, brand ambassador, former Idols SA contestant, award-winning businesswoman, and now, ‘Real Housewife’: to say that the charismatic Buli G’s CV is impressive would be an understatement. She is a highly connected social butterfly known for bringing the light into any room she enters.

Ashleigh Mather

The sweetheart of the group, fresh-faced Ashleigh is a wife and mom who works in the fabulously fast-paced fashion industry. But don’t be fooled: while she might be unassuming, she’s no pushover. With her family owning two of the biggest clubs in the city, she certainly has a wild side that might catch her castmates by surprise.

Liz

A dedicated mom and socialite who loves jogging, Liz is a straight shooter. But beneath that bubbly exterior is a woman who is softer than she seems. Still recovering from the loss of her beloved husband, the construction project manager who sold her company for eight figures is navigating life as a widow. Her heart might be in the right place, but will her words land her in hot water with the group?
