PEET VILJOEN ON TAMMY TAYLOR NAILS SA CONTROVERSIES The Real Housewives van Pretoria (RHOPTA) reunion was hosted by Rian van heerden. Rian asks Peet Viljoen to explain in one sentence or two about the controversial Carte Blanche episode where presenters claimed that he and his wife do not own the Tammy Taylor Nails SA patent. Peet is married to Tammy Taylor Nails SA founder and RHOPTA star Melany Mel Viljoen.

The pair were also questioned about claims that the product they are using - not being Tammy Taylor but instead locally manufactured. Peet claimed that there was no franchise and Tammy Taylor had nothing to licence to them.

Now you need to focus because it's getting extremely technical now. I'll respond in one sentence. There is no them'. Tammy Taylor, is a small distributor of nail products, who told us that she produces the products herself. She's no franchise and she had nothing to licence to us, he said.

Just look up the dictionary definition of the word licence' on Google. You can't buy coke cans from Coca-Cola and then licence them to me. Only Coco-Cola can. Understand, he continued.

NO AMERICAN EQUIVALENT' Peet then went on to claim that the franchise was created in South Africa and there is no American equivalent of what they have created.

--

So the trademark is registered here. The franchise was created here. There is no American equivalent of what the two (of) us have created. That's what people don't understand. Carte Blanche is aware of this, he said.

The former lawyer then went on to claim that the original brand was transferred back.

On their own, a clip from the aired program, if you simply pause the clip on your television screen, you will see that the transfer of the brand, her writing form, the original one, was transferred back to her, he continued.

Ours, which we created here, was not transferred. So, it read rejected' on the screen, he added.
