The Not Sorry podcast has confirmed that host Rei Nkuna is stepping away from the show. Rei became a recognisable voice on the show, contributing to wide-ranging conversations that touched on relationships, culture, personal experiences and the everyday realities of South African life. Her on-air presence helped shape the dynamic that regular listeners had grown attached to over time.

Rei Nkuna steps away from Not Sorry

The podcast broke the news directly to its audience through an announcement, confirming that Rei would no longer be part of the hosting team. However, the statement kept things brief, offering little explanation for what prompted the decision. Whether the split came down to personal circumstances, professional opportunities, or something else entirely, the podcast has not said.

What's next for the podcast

Changes to a podcast's presenting lineup are not uncommon, though they can meaningfully shift the tone and chemistry that audiences have come to expect. For Not Sorry, moving forward without one of its established voices will be a significant adjustment, both for the show and for its listeners.

The podcast has signalled that it is entering a new chapter, though the specifics of what that looks like, including the future format and hosting team, remain unclear for now. Fans are expected to learn more as the show continues to release new episodes in the coming weeks.
