Rebotile Mametja reacted:
"Is Scandal a reality show these days?😂😂😂"
Noe Gabula said:
"Musa can't even handle his own Sithembu. How will he help Nhloso? He has even developed high blood pressure. His women are showing him flames😅😅. This is a disaster. Nhloso must just run like Murife😅😂."
Minenhle Mthiyane commented:
"This is why I no longer watch Scandal!".
Manxuba Ntshanga said:
"Mseleku nearly died because of this polygamy; now he's advising people."
MaEu Malatji reacted:
"It's not easy leaving your marriage. They've been together since she was young; having to start over at an old age is not easy."
Kulani Maluleke wrote:
"Dintle and MaDlomo can be good friends if Dintle is not selfish when it comes to Nhloso's time, before marrying her. She wanted him at her place all the time; that's got to change."
Enah Bogatsu said:
"Nope, this is selfishness. I don't want them to get along because Dintle can not be trusted. She said she only wants Nhloso for herself, that's why she agreed to this."
