Reality TV star Pheladi Madungandaba says she has no interest to making a return to The Mommy Club after her stint in season 3.
Pheladi's absence from the show's reunion episode had already sparked speculation, with her citing health reasons for her non-attendance.
Despite being part of the show's third season, Pheladi's experience seems to have left a lasting impression, leading her to rule out a potential return.
On the show, the audience saw Pheladi engage in verbal altercations with two cast members: one with Nokwethemba “Noksie” Khumalo and the other with Kabelo “Mrs J” Jantjies, which got heated when her children were brought up and she was called a hoe because she mentioned she previously dated a married man.
In a candid interview with Palesa Madisakwane, Pheladi shared her reservations about the dynamics behind reality TV. She said she was initially reluctant — having been approached before to do The Real Housewives of Johannesburg — to join the show but wanted to share her story.
“We get into these things thinking there's an open policy, there's transparency. It's not the case, people have their own agendas. Also us as the cast, we came in with our own agendas, production have their own agendas, whatever they want to achieve, the audience and the media have their own agendas,” she said.
“It's unfortunate. It's not a space where I have control. I like to be in a position where I can control.”
Here's why Pheladi will not return to 'The Mommy Club' for season 4
