In an exclusive post-reunion interview, OG Durban housewife Sorisha Naidoo opens up about her emotional walkout during the jaw-dropping Season 4 finale of The Real Housewives of Durban. With tensions running high and accusations of being a “puppet master” flying, Sorisha reflects on the tumultuous season, her strained relationships with co-stars, and the lessons she learned along the way. As fans eagerly speculate about her return for Season 5, Sorisha reveals what it would take for her to come back to the drama-filled world of Durban’s elite.
In her first interview post-reunion, Sorisha spills the tea on her current state of mind and how she feels about her co-stars.
How do you feel about everything that was said about you in the finale?
It was very hard to watch the final episode and not feel a certain way about it. I feel very disheartened that nobody felt that they had to apologize to me. By the time the apology was trying to come through at the reunion, I was over it. I was already checked out.
Since filming the reunion and leaving in the middle of it, have you had a change of heart?
Yes, the minute I came back to my family, my friends and my inner circle, I felt so calm and balanced. I left everything that happened at the reunion. I am in a good place, surrounded by love and positive energy. I am not even thinking about anything from that day.
You left the reunion early. Is there anything that was unsaid on your part?
I was there for 90% of the time. I was hoping that we would clarify some issues and be able to amicably work some things out but that did not happen. People were very hard in their mindsets and they weren’t going to change their minds, so there was no point in saying certain things.
You previously said that you knew who your friends were and you knew the people who you did not want to be around. After the reunion, do you still feel the same way?
For me, my friends are the awesome foursome. We are still tight. We still chat on the daily and, now more than ever, I have cemented how I feel about everyone else.
What did Season 4 teach you about yourself?
Season 4 gave me some lessons. Watching the show, there were things I uncovered about myself. I learned to trust in myself more and not always want to please people.
As one of the OGs of Durban, are you going to be back for Season 5 if there is one?
If there is a major shakeup, and the show is more aspirational, and we see each other as women and not anything else, I would be back.
