Reality television personality Happy Simelane said she is thrilled that justice and karma are finally being served on controversial social highflyers Melany and Peet Viljoen, who were arrested in the United States earlier this week.

Speaking to Sunday World, Simelane said the arrest felt like long-over-due justice.

"This is just the beginning. I'm thrilled because the justice system failed us, and they ran away to America. I reacted the way I did because karma finally caught up with them, and I'm still going to rejoice," Simelane said.
