MABLERH AND THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF DURBAN
MaBlerh is ready for the challenge. “I am here to represent the viewers and get to the bottom of all the drama,” he says.
“The show has a lot of loyal viewers, and I intend to step in and represent all of their views. They have burning questions that need answers.”
He is the first African to host multiple reunions within The Real Housewives franchise. His previous credits include The Real Housewives of Gqeberha S1 and The Real Housewives of Johannesburg S3.
“Being back for the third time is an honour I don’t take lightly, it’s a big job that requires sensitivity, because these ladies are opening up and sharing their lives with us. Some of the topics are deeply personal,” MaBlerh explains.
THE GO-TO HOST
Known for his calm approach and tough questions, MaBlerh has become the go-to host for South Africa’s Real Housewives reunions.
He promises not to hold back this year: “This year, I’m making sure that no stone is left unturned. Everyone needs to be held accountable for what they’ve said and done, so we can reach a real resolution.
Accountability is key. This is not just about drama for the sake of entertainment, it’s about honesty, clarity, and sometimes even healing.”
MaBlerh is also paying close attention to viewers’ voices. “I’ve seen the tweets, I’ve read the comments and concerns – and trust me, everything will be addressed.
TOUGH QUESTIONS ON THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF DURBAN REUNION
People have been asking the same questions week after week. I hear them. And I’m going to ask those same questions in that reunion chair,” he assures.
With the promise of tough questions and real answers, fans can expect an unmissable reunion.
