From going on awkward blind dates, to the possibility of kissing plenty of frogs before finding Prince Charming, getting back into the dating scene after a divorce can be daunting. But six divorcees who’ve been unlucky at love put their fears aside and give dating another shot on new reality love show The Single Wives SA. It’s the local version of single-season Australian series Single Wives (2018), and host-coaches Justin Cohen and Mapaseka Mokwele will guides these women hopefully on the way to love.

The six will be living under the same roof for six weeks while taking part in activities like speed dating, that will not only draw them closer to meeting Mr Right, but also discover their selfworth. “The Single Wives SA is more than just a dating show. It’s about transformation,” says Justin, who is a motivational speaker, self-help book author and also hosted talkshow Guru (2017) on CBN Africa (*410). “The focus is helping these women become the best versions of themselves so that they can live happy and purposeful lives. The guy is a bonus,” adds Justin.
