‘I reached out privately to apologise' – Minnie Ntuli clears the air on Londie London beef

We had Sane, who had tea on every cast member on The Real Housewives of Durban (RHOD). Just as we were catching our breath, Minnie Ntuli took us by storm. Every week since her debut on the fifth season of the reality show, the 30-year-old has become the talk of the country. From accusing Durban businesswoman, Precious, of mistreating her salon staff to throwing lemons at Londie London. Most people have even wondered why she was cast and why she agreed to be part of the show if all she'll be doing is centering her relevance around other cast members. To this, she says she took it as an opportunity to step out of her comfort zone. 'To be honest, it wasn't part of the plan. But when the opportunity came, I saw it as a chance to step out of my comfort zone and be part of something bold, loud, and very Durban. I also wanted to represent a different kind of woman, someone who's still figuring things out, but doing so authentically and unapologetically.' Read more | 'I acknowledge my part in the chaos' – Nonku Williams quits RHOD When her family and friends found out that she'd be on the show, they were shocked but supportive. 'My mom said, 'Ungakhohlwa ukuthi ungubani' [Never forget who you are]. My close circle was excited and also protective. They know I'm sensitive but spicy, and reality TV is no walk in the park.' As someone who had watched RHOD before, she was expecting it to be a rollercoaster of a ride. She also admits that watching the drama and being part of the drama were two different experiences. 'Absolutely. I was nervous about how I'd be perceived. I mean, people will judge you for breathing wrong on camera. But I also knew that if I went in with an open heart and stayed true to myself, I'd be okay. I didn't expect the emotional rollercoaster, though.' 'Watching is entertainment. Living in it is unpredictable, emotional, and sometimes overwhelming. The cameras don't stop rolling when you're tired or triggered. It's raw. You can't curate your responses, and that's where the growth happens, honestly,' she adds. While shooting the character-building show, the broadcaster discovered a lot about herself. 'You think you know who you are, and then someone presses your buttons on camera and it's like, 'Oh wow, is that me?' The experience really exposes both your strengths and your shadows.' To stay afloat with all the pressure of being a public figure, Minnie shares that she takes breaks to protect her peace and prays a lot. Over and above all, she's learnt to remind herself that public opinion doesn't define her, especially as some moments were portrayed differently on TV. 'That's the nature of edited television. There were conversations and context that didn't make the cut, especially around some of the more intense moments. But I'm not here to blame editing. I also take responsibility for how I showed up. I'm a work in progress. The people who know my heart matter the most. Still, it's tough. Some days are harder than others, but I'm learning not to take everything personally.' Read more | 'I love a challenge' – Londie London ready to return officially on RHOD For her, the most painful experience on the show came mostly from the social media backlash and criticism. 'It's not easy. People say hurtful things with zero context, and it stings. But I try to separate the noise from the truth. I read what I need to grow, and I release what doesn't serve me. I've had to remind myself daily that having flaws means owning your mistakes, learning out loud, and giving yourself grace.' She clears misconceptions about her being a hot-headed, defensive girl with an attitude and says that there's more to her. 'I'm soft-hearted. I just happen to be fiery when pushed. I feel deeply, and sometimes that comes out messily. But I'm not fake. What you see is what you get.' As for her and Londie, the two don't have a history. After all the fights on and off camera, we finally find out that there was no context to the clash. 'There's no dramatic backstory or secret feud. What happened between us happened on the show, in real time, and, unfortunately, it spiralled. Emotions were high, egos were bruised, and communication broke down. I've since reflected and reached out privately to apologise. What viewers saw wasn't the full picture, but my actions in those moments are on me.' For her sake, we hope the apology will also be dished out at the reunion as publicly as all the attacks throughout the season.

Love Island USA Season 7 Is Being Ruined by ‘Sisterhood'

Peacock In this op-ed, associate editor Aiyana Ishmael argues that the efforts of the Love Island season 7 cast to recreate the commercial success of the PPG trio from season 6 is negatively impacting the natural chemistry of the Islanders and detracting from the experiences of those in and outside of the villa. During Love Island USA season 6, audiences were sold a unicorn: stars Serena Page, Leah Kateb, and JaNa Craig forged a genuine friendship while out in Fiji searching for love, a bond not often seen during the epic throes of reality dating television. Gone were the days of women cattily fighting over men for six weeks. We welcomed in a new era of sisterhood, one slightly more bonded than anyone had ever seen on the reality franchise's seasons past. That undeniable love and support for each other — and their instantly iconic moniker, PPG — made fans of the series invest in anything these three girls were hypothetically selling. Serena had roughly 2,000 followers on Instagram when the show first premiered last June, and she left the villa with over half a million, which has now turned into over 4 million followers across Instagram and TikTok, a spinoff series on Peacock, and representation from one of the largest media agencies in the country. To say that the power of sisterhood transformed the personal lives of PPG is a gross understatement. So it was only a matter of time that Love Island USA season 7 producers, contestants, and fans alike would be searching for a way to catch lightning in a bottle once more. Only it seems that we've all quickly forgotten that a successful friendship takes time and work — not just twelve episodes. Likely due to PPG's success, it feels as though each of season 7's female contestants are overly conscious of the fact that they're being perceived by millions of at-home viewers, and desperately aware that the reality show — and 'sisterhood' — could be an avenue out of corporate purgatory and into influencer freedom, similar to what we saw with Serena, Leah, and JaNa. We saw these forced attempts straight out of the gate: during episode 2 of the newest season, Huda Mustafa referred to Olandria Carthen and Chelley Bissainthe as her 'sisters,' noting that she was so excited for this 'sisterhood' to grow over the next few weeks. Her sentiments held the same weight as teary-eyed Alabama freshmen 'running home' to their new sorority houses, claiming they've felt the sisterhood from the moment they stepped into their first day of rush. There's a power dynamic they're refusing to address — and a (obviously lacking) suspension of disbelief required of the viewers. Forming friendships quickly through shared trauma and confined spaces is very common; this concept of deep, profound friendship found amongst a television cast wouldn't be so jarring if we weren't being force-fed the word every few minutes by cast members who only met a few days prior. Bombshell Amaya Espinal arrived at the villa ready to try her luck at the abysmal group of Love Island men. She decided to kiss Jeremiah Brown — who was coupled up with Huda in the first few episodes — which led to Huda calling Amaya a b*tch, claiming that she could not trust the newcomer because 'she should know' what she and Jeremiah had going on. (Amaya had arrived on the island roughly an hour before Huda's claims and had no prior knowledge of their relationship.) In an attempt to build allegiance with the original group of girls, (Chelley, Olandria, Belle-a Walker, and Cierra Ortega) Huda 'welcomed' Cierra into the sisterhood, sharing that she was a mother — a personal fact she'd just told Jeremiah, which is why she was feeling frustrated with Amaya's choices. Weaponizing sisterhood to separate the girls from Amaya is not friendship. It's as if this season's cast read the SparkNotes of last season's success without really contextualizing what it means to uphold friendship against the real enemy — the men in the house constantly gaslighting them. A week later, during episode 12, we see Charlie Georgiou pull Amaya for a chat to explore a potential connection — after his partner Hannah Fields was making out with bombshell Pepe Garcia. Amaya claimed that Charlie was moving off of impulse, but more importantly that Hannah is one of her 'closest sisters' and that would be her 'biggest betrayal right now' — the 'right now" being the end of week two in the villa. Charlie earnestly shares that while he may be moving off of emotion in response to Hannah, he deserves to explore multiple connections. Amaya tearfully reiterates that she's 'too close to Hannah' to do that to her. Moments later, in a confessional, Amaya shares that she could potentially be sent home because she hasn't formed any other connections. She adds that maybe 'if the story was different,' she'd consider Charlie, but she didn't want to change her 'moral compass.' Based on the too-quick formation of this 'girl squad,' it's evident that the contestants are trying to take a shortcut to loyalty island when nothing's been earned yet. It's almost as if they've all forgotten the primary reason why they're on Love Island — and it has everything to do with PPG. PPG's success last year was a gradual climb. As each new week passed we saw through subtle and grand gestures how their sisterhood became infallible. It wasn't on day one and it surely wasn't finalized by day twelve. Lest we forget the small fights between JaNa and Leah over the indiscernible Connor Newsum, something fans still bring up in shock when they see that the two are still friends after the villa? JaNa and Leah made mistakes when it came to how they handled exploring a connection with the same man, but they resolved their issues through honest communication. Small tiffs are bound to happen throughout the six-week social experiment that is Love Island, but acting as if women you've just met owe you more than the men you're actively pursuing isn't how you form a sisterhood. After season 7 episode 12's fallout, it is painstakingly clear that forming a 'sisterhood,' especially one that operates with dogmatic loyalty, has actually become more harmful than helpful for all the girls in the house. As the women carefully walk on eggshells to soothe Huda's deteriorating emotional state, we're watching in real time how poorly-built, forced closeness is disrupting everyone's villa experience. The friendships they're forcing onto each other — that are rightfully valued in the outside world — are magnified to an uncomfortable dimension in season 7. The contestants are taking the best parts of PPG, Liv and Kaylor, and even the Casa Amor girls, and perverting it into something else. I'd much rather watch a show filled with morally gray, self-aware women open to the idea of building real connections with the other women on the show, all while following the main mission of Love Island: pilfering romance and affection from a large assortment of people at the same time. Further, on a show where there are only five to six women in play at a time, trying to form an overarching group sisterhood isn't realistic. PPG was a trio and Liv and Kaylor were a duo — this idea that all the season 7 women should have undying allegiance to each other defeats the purpose of dating multiple people. Toes are bound to get stepped on, and not everyone can be in your corner all summer long. More times than not, a friend to all is a friend to none. Sisterhood comes with time and real bonding, not forced cliques. Just because you repeatedly say it, doesn't always make it true. No one wants to be the girl who cried sisterhood.
