Donovan Goliath to host The Real Housewives of Durban reunion

After a teary, water-throwing finale, Season 2 of The Real Housewives of Durban wraps up with a two-part reunion on 6 and 13 May 2022, hosted by Comics Choice’ nominee Donovan Goliath.

“I’ve always been intrigued by this concept and this show,” says Donovan, a well-known comedian, presenter, MC and facilitator, who also acts in the hit film One Night Kwa Mxolisi. “I was excited to host the reunion because I really wanted to meet the wives and get to know more about this world from them.”

“Donovan was the perfect host because he came with the right amount of humour, the right amount of compassion, and the right amount of love for all of the ladies and the storylines on The Real Housewives of Durban,” says Let It Rain Films executive producer Sam Kelly. “Some divides are going to be cemented and some bridges are going to be built, so it’s a great reunion.”

Season 2 topped Twitter regularly on Friday throughout its run, with stars Annie, Jojo, LaConco, Londie, Mabusi, MaKhumalo, Nonku, and Sorisha also trending. As Zalebs says, the show “never ceases to amaze the viewers” and is “nothing short of sassy, glamorous and dramatic.”

After Nonku’s mother, Queen, faced off with Ayanda Ncwane in the controversial Season 1 reunion over damages, the Season 2 reunion has a lot to live up to – but there’s no shortage of tensions that need to be resolved from Season 2, especially after Indaba Ka Petal about LaConco’s mystery man, Jojo throwing water at Mabusi, and MaKhumalo being called out for distancing herself from the group.

With no The Real Housewives of Durban for fans last Friday, The Real Housewives of Lagos took centre stage, trending in both Nigeria and South Africa. Carolyna’s bohemian-inspired dinner party went from 0-100 real quick, with Carolyna and Laura getting into a heated argument about Laura’s sister, blogger Linda Ikeji, who Carolyna blamed in part for the breakdown of her marriage. New episodes drop every Friday, to fill that Durban-sized hole in fans’ hearts (and Twitter timelines).
