In the most recent episode of season four of Faith Nketsi’s reality series “Have Faith” on MTV, the drama-filled wedding to wealthy businessman Nzuzo Njilo was depicted.
Despite being pregnant at the time of the episode, Nketsi appeared to receive very little assistance planning and organising all the details surrounding her wedding.
Nketsi’s mother also shared a tearful diary entry in which she claimed that Nketsi’s father, with whom she is no longer in a relationship, had abused her in the past and that his attendance at the wedding had been upsetting.
On social media, a lot of users expressed sympathy for her mother. Others believed that Nketsi’s lack of assistance throughout was justified given that she had previously neglected to support those close to her, including her best friend Kim during the course of her own pregnancy.
“#havefaith,” wrote @Bongeka. @bongeka___ tweeted, “kinda sad to hear that the only person assisting faith is the helper. “And none of her relatives are providing assistance. Just let’s hope she realises how crucial it is to be there for others.
Yenziwe Dhlomo continued, “Nothing against Faith, but Kim went through her pregnancy and her friends weren’t around.
It has been reported that she never appears, just like her cousins. Now that everyone is aware of how busy she is, let’s not blame those around her for expending the same amount of energy. #havefaith.”
Despite all the controversy, some people praised Nketsi’s bridal attire.
“Can we just take a moment to admire the beauty of our bride? ” said @Leslee ZA. “But I didn’t expect anything less though #MTVHaveFaith #HaveFaith”
The actual wedding took place in April. Nketsi shared some of the images from her big day on Instagram shortly after.
In a recent interview with IOL Entertainment, Nketsi shared how this season of “Have Faith” will see her sharing more of her family dynamics.
There is undoubtedly more family-related material, she remarked. We really don’t sugarcoat anything, especially when it comes to black families and how things really is.
“I absolutely want to improve things every season, and I also try to be more present and interact with people. It’s more about myself, evolving, and forming a new family.
