The unfolding issues stem from Married At First Sight South Africa even after the conclusion of Season 2. Palesa Mphakhi is currently under scrutiny due to comments made in her interview on MacG’s Podcast and Chill.
In response to public backlash, her management team has taken steps to manage the situation.
Mphaki’s team reaches out to fans
Bepro Management Consultancy addressed audience reactions to Mphaki’s comments in a statement. They conveyed their disapproval of remarks that may have caused distress to individuals.
However, the statement did not specify the nature of the apology being issued.
“We also recognise that Ms Mphaki has been navigating deep personal pain and unresolved trauma, which unfortunately surfaced during this interview. Bepro also apologised to those directly affected,” the team wrote.
Palesa Mphaki mentioned several individuals, including her ex-husband Tshepo Miya; her team extended an apology to him as well.
“We sincerely apologise to Mr Tshepo, the individuals affected, our brand partners and the public who have supported her journey thus far,”
The reality television star is expected to issue an apology to her followers and those impacted by her comments.
“Palesa Mphaki will be issuing a personal apology soon and still remains committed to rebuilding trust, demonstrating accountability and emerging from this experience with greater emotional awareness and maturity,” they said.
Tshepo Miya raises serious concerns
Also appearing on the show was Tshepo, who candidly shared his feelings about the disappointments with the show.
“I wouldn’t say I had beef with the production, but it was along the lines of disappointment. We were sold something close to nothing. We were told during the interviews that ‘We will get you an amazing wife and you will have an amazing experience.’ But the moment you get into it, the script changes.”
Miya expressed concerns about the production team’s ability to match couples effectively. He noted that some participants were appropriately evaluated, while others seemed to be included solely to generate drama.
“It made me question if production really went all the way to find us a good wife, or did they do what they confessed and say they wanted to bring drama to the show.”
