The Real Housewives of Durban Season 5 reunion has taken a scandalous turn after shocking unseen footage aired, revealing a violent altercation between cast members Minnie Ntuli and Londie London. The scene, which had previously been cut from the show, ignited a storm of criticism and legal threats and Minnie wasn’t even at the reunion to respond.
A Tense Moment Caught on Camera
In the explosive video released during Part 2 of the reunion special, Minnie is seen aggressively confronting Londie. With her voice raised and emotions flaring, Minnie violently thrusts her finger into Londie's face and forehead, shouting about her family and past. Londie, visibly shaken, later recounted the moment, saying, “It felt like time stopped.”

The scene previously unaired has been widely condemned by fans and castmates alike. Sorisha Naidoo described the footage as simply “disturbing,” while Jojo Robinson called it “worse than anything viewers have seen.” Their sentiments echo a growing public outcry about what many are calling Minnie’s “violent and unprovoked” behavior.
Minnie Absent from the Reunion
Notably, Minnie Ntuli did not attend the reunion taping. Sources close to production say she was upset about her portrayal during the season and opted not to face the rest of the cast. Her absence did not spare her from the backlash, however, as the footage went viral shortly after airing. A trending clip of the moment has circulated widely on social media (X.com), with fans calling for her to be removed from public platforms.
Legal Action and Public Fallout
Londie London has since confirmed that she is taking legal steps against Minnie Ntuli, including charges of assault and defamation. In an interview with TimesLIVE, she stated: “She deserves to spend two weeks in jail for what she did.”
A petition demanding Minnie’s removal from her positions in media, including her role at Gagasi FM, has already gained significant traction. The petition describes her actions as “unacceptable,” “violent,” and “damaging to women empowerment on screen.”
In response, Gagasi FM issued a statement expressing their concern, noting that the incident does not align with their values. They confirmed that Minnie has taken responsibility for her behavior and is seeking professional help. However, no public disciplinary action has been announced at this time.
Minnie’s Apology Too Little, Too Late?
Before the reunion aired, Minnie issued a private apology to Londie and later addressed the public via social media and interviews. She admitted to being “mean” and acknowledged that her actions “spiraled out of control.” She also claimed that there was no longstanding feud between the two women, asserting that tensions developed naturally during filming.
Despite her apologies, many viewers and castmates remain unconvinced, especially after seeing the full extent of the footage.
What’s Next?
As the dust settles, questions remain about Minnie’s future in media and whether this altercation marks a turning point for the Real Housewives of Durban franchise. Will Minnie face criminal charges? Will she be removed from her radio and television gigs? And can Londie London find resolution and justice after the very public confrontation?
