Reality star and businesswoman Melany “Mel” Viljoen is set to captivate audiences as part of Showmax ’s new spinoff, The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip – South Africa . Mel will be sharing the screen with an impressive roster of housewives from across the country, including Christall Kay, LaConco, Lethabo Lejoy Mathatho , Liz Prins, and Londie London, among others. The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip – South Africa is scheduled to premiere next Monday, 27 May, on Showmax.
Speaking to The Citizen , Mel shared her excitement about being part of the show and gave a glimpse of what fans can expect. “The scale of the show was much bigger than the local Housewives of Pretoria. I was removed from my comfort zone and far away from my husband and soundboard, Peet Viljoen.
“The production was Hollywood-style, and it seemed like they had a limitless budget. There were cameras everywhere, and the crew was incredibly professional, eager to capture every moment. It was the reality on steroids,” she said.
Owner of Tammy Taylor Nails SA Mel also proudly shared that throughout the filming, not only was she the only married housewife on the show, but her diamond-encrusted nails remained flawless. “For four weeks, my nails did not lift, break, or discolour,” she added.
