Nonku Williams bids farewell to 'The Real Housewives of Durban'

“NO REUNION, NO RETURN, JUST PEACE’

- ALYSSIA BIRJALAL

NONKU Williams has chosen to “break free” from the The Real Housewives of Durban reality TV show, citing that the series pits women against each other in the pursuit of relentless drama.

Williams recently issued an official statement where she outlined various reasons for her decision to exit the franchise and not be a part of the season 5 reunion.

“Watching myself on screen, I am confronted with a reality that’s hard to accept. The woman I see isn't someone I recognised or respect,” wrote the show's OG.

Williams continued to share that although she’s played a role in shaping the show’s narrative, she believes she’s also a product of the show’s dynamics.

“The relentless pursuit of drama, the pitting women against each other, the gossip and the put-downs - it’s a toxic cycle that wears me down.”
