Johannesburg - Reality TV star Londiwe "Londie London" Zulu has solicited the services of a private lawyer to issue fellow cast member of The Real Housewives of Durban Minentle "Minnie" Ntuli with a letter of demand.

The open letter which was posted on Zulu's social media pages has urged the now embattled media personality, Ntuli, to "record a sincere video apology".

"We demand from you as we hereby do, that you record a sincere video apology, which you should send to us and post on all social media accounts by 17h:00 on Wednesday 16 July 2025, failing which we hold instructions to sue for damages and open an assault case with the South African Police Service," read the statement.

The letter states that Ntuli's prior apology shows no remorse for her conduct and is intended solely to salvage her working contract with Gagasi FM

"Ex facie your statement, it is clear that it was released to save your working relationship with Gagasi FM. Your statement was released before you sent an SMS to our client."

Earlier, Zulu had made it known that she was not happy with the apology she got from her fellow cast member.

"I don’t accept her apology, and I don’t want to see her. I will open a case of assault and defamation of character. If she was at the reunion, I’d be serving her with papers already. She’s vile and deserves to spend at least two weeks behind bars," she said.

Johannesburg - Sultry songstress and reality TV star Londiwe "Londie London" Zulu is set to open up a criminal case against fellow reality TV star member Minnie Ntuli of The Real Housewives of Durban (RHOD).

This action comes after a short clip video shown on RHOD's reunion season 5 episode - hosted by MaBlerh - went viral on social media.

The video which has now sparked an online petition against Minnie Ntuli from the show's viewers shows an angry Ntuli confronting Londie and poking her forehead.

After much public outcry over her conduct Ntuli has since come out to issue a public apology to Zulu expressing her remorse.

 "I want to sincerely apologise to the affected cast members. I know my actions hurt others, and for that, I am truly sorry," said Ntuli.

However, Zulu is not deterred by the apology and is planning on sticking to her guns.

"I don’t accept her apology, and I don’t want to see her. I will open a case of assault and defamation of character. If she was at the reunion, I’d be serving her with papers already. She’s vile and deserves to spend at least two weeks behind bars," Londie made the remarks during the show's reunion over the weekend.

Meanwhile, Gagasi FM - where Ntuli has a morning slot - has issued a statement on the matter.

"We actively engaged with Minnie to address the matter responsibly and constructively. She took full accountability for her actions. She expressed deep remorse and wrote an apology letter to the show’s production company and cast members. It is intended to be read at the show’s reunion," read the statement.

Johannesburg - Disgraced former Home Affairs minister Malusi Gigaba has lost the bid to block the airing of an episode of his former wife, Nomachule "Norma" Gigaba from sharing details of their failed marriage on Showmax's reality TV show Untied. 

Untied is hosted by TV and radio personality Relebogile Mabotja

The show is said to explore the deeply personal and often complex experience of divorce, told through the voices of women who have lived it.

“We welcome the court’s decision to dismiss the interdict application brought by Mr. Malusi Gigaba regarding the airing of the Showmax episode of Untied featuring Ms. Norma Mngoma. 

"We remain committed to responsible storytelling and respect for the legal process," said Multichoice.

According to The Citizen, the airing of the episode was temporarily halted by the former minister out of fear that his ex-wife would speak out on his alleged infidelity during their marriage, his addiction to adult content and the misuse of public funds.
