Controversies unfold: Nandipha and Reverend Mlombi get a reality show
The controversial life of Nandipha Mlombi and her husband Reverend Mawuzole Mlombi returns to the small screens. The couple was introduced to the public when Nandipha - affectionately known as Queen Nandi - joined the reality show Pastors' Wives. Now, they and their seven children have snagged their own show on Mzansi Magic called Nandi and The Rev, set to debut on Sunday, 24 August 2025. The reality show will follow their controversial story after their short-lived separation and being removed from their church mission house and Bedfordview mansion. Now, with their marriage under duress and their children's trust hanging in the balance, they face the task of repairing their lives as the public watches closely. Driven by Nandi's fierce tenacity and Thabo's battle for redemption, the series poses a heartfelt question: can love, faith and willpower help this family find their way back to wholeness? View this post on Instagram A post shared by MzansiMagic (@mzansimagic) Nandipha initially grabbed South Africa's attention as the unconventional mam'mfundisi and former beauty pageant queen who wasn't afraid to show some skin and speak out against the church they were a part of. In 2024, the couple temporarily went their separate ways after 15 years of marriage. Speaking on their separation, Reverend Mawuzole explained to DRUM, 'It was a combination of things that led us to splitting up. There was a lot of stress from work or church related things. I was overwhelmed. She and I disagreed on how she handled things on social media, and I also had health issues.' Viewers will now get a chance to see how the contentious couple and their family pick up the pieces of their lives as they face the onslaught of public scrutiny.

Controversial pastor's wife, Queen Nandi, forcefully evicted from her mansion
She's known as the pastor's wife that stirs up debate and doesn't conform to the typical 'Mam'fundisi' image. Her latest predicament has sparked public sympathy and scrutiny, with many questioning her lifestyle. Many believe that the way she lives does not align with her role as a pastor's wife and Christian values. Read more | EXCLUSIVE | Rev. Mlombi finally speaks: 'I love her dearly' Nandipha Mlombi affectionately known as Queen Nandi is a reality TV personality and wife to Reverend Mawuzole Mlombi whom she shares 7 children with. The couple gained attention after making a debut on 'Pastors' Wives,' and have been embroiled in a lot of drama since then. Queen Nandi has always been vocal about her experiences and struggles within the Bedfordview Methodist Chruch. Her most controversial scandals involved her claims that her disqualification from the Mrs. Southern Africa beauty pageant was influenced by a church member, as well as the circumstances surrounding her short lived separation from her husband. Read more | Christopher Jaftha denies being father of Pabi Moloi's child To add to her many controversial incidents in 2024 Queen Nandi and her family were instructed to vacate the church mission house following her husband, Rev. Mlombi being dethroned from his position, but she did not comply with the order which ultimately resulted in them being forcefully removed with their belongings thrown outside as she revealed on a live video on Facebook. It seems as though history has repeated itself as Queen Nandi once again took to Facebook Sunday 29 June to share that she was being forcefully evicted from a Bedfordview mansion house she claims she bought through a 'real estate agent' last year named Vuyiseka Mpeqeka. It turns out that the house did not belong to her but to someone else who claims the property is theirs and Queen Nandi is an illegal tenant. She went live on Facebook showing her belongings being thrown out yet again as the supposed owner of the property told her family to evict his premises. Queen Nandi said on the live video she only found out about this recently as they were preparing to use the house for a shoot. Social media users have since weighed in on the matter with many scrutinising her while some show sympathy for her kids.
