PALOMA MLUNJWANA CONFIRMS REALITY TV SHOW Zimbabwean blogger Paloma Mlunjwana took to her Instagram to confirm that filming for the show has begun and announced her co-stars.
When I started filming the show the title made me feel awkward. Me a QUEEN? The term we casually use in group chats and memes suddenly became heavy.
This journey and the ladies @luckymthembu_za @futtie_mthembu @spheshvoluptuous_me @iamsamkemhlongo has shown me that every woman is wearing an invisible crown. The cast is relatable and they openly share the trials and dreams most women experience.
The publication adds that the SABC1 reality TV show will handle topics such as new romantic relationships, balancing single parenting, and managing businesses and relationships as a group.
