Tumi Morake Reveals The Horrible Treatment She Received During Her ‘OPW’ Time

Tumi Morake Reveals The Horrible Treatment She Received During Her ‘OPW’ Time! Tumi Morake was the host of Mzansi Magic’s hit reality show, ‘Our Perfect Wedding’ when it started.

After two season she left the show but we’ve never known why she left when she was a fan favorite. Now the star is spilling all the tea on what happened behind the scenes and the horrible treatment she experienced in her book, ‘And Then Mama Said‘.

“It looked like I was winning at life. What I went through on OPW however, would prove to be worse than any treatment I had ever received at the hands of my male counterparts in the industry. As a comedian, writer and MC I had never been told that my weight was an issue. It only ever cropped up on social media or at family gatherings, but never quite as humiliatingly as it did when I presented this show,” a portion of the book reads.

Tumi shared how comments flew back and forth between the executives and production about her body and the intense work that needed to go into hiding her ‘big belly’.

“I heard things like, ‘But we need to cover that stomach’ and ‘Her stomach is a problem.’ I knew I was quite heavy after having my baby but this felt unnecessary,” Tumi revealed.

Tumi claimed that she came under fire for her natural hair and broke down after everyone had left.

“One of the cast members was next door and overheard the entire exchange. When everyone had left, she came in and hugged me. She was shocked at how I had been spoken to and could not believe how gracious I had been. I felt like a toddler who’d fallen down.

“I left the show after two seasons and there was an overwhelming demand for my return. I felt like I had won. My worth had been taken into account and nothing they threw at me could break me.”
