Minnie Ntuli faces legal trouble over Londie London assault claims
Minnie Ntuli accused on assaulting Londie London on RHOD
South African media personality and Real Housewives of Durban (RHOD) cast member Minnie Ntuli is under growing pressure after singer and co-star Londie London announced plans to pursue legal action for assault and defamation.
The incident reportedly took place during filming for the latest season of RHOD and has quickly escalated beyond reality TV drama into a full-blown legal and public relations crisis.
Hidden RHOD Clips Allegedly Show Violent Confrontation
Sources close to the production have confirmed that unedited RHOD footage reportedly captures the moment Minnie Ntuli physically confronts Londie London during a heated off-script exchange. While the final cut of the show aired a toned-down version, the raw footage, viewed by insiders, reveals a more aggressive encounter, now being used as evidence in Londie’s legal case.
Londie’s legal team has formally requested access to the unaired tapes, which are expected to be key in proving the alleged assault. The footage could also trigger regulatory investigations against the show’s producers for withholding potentially incriminating content.
Londie London Pursues Legal Action Over RHOD Altercation
Londie London has formally revealed that she is “serving” Minnie Ntuli with court papers, citing physical assault and reputational harm during their time on the reality series. According to Londie, what began as an on-screen argument turned physical, leaving her with emotional trauma and personal damage.
Her legal representatives confirmed that charges of common assault and defamation will be filed in the coming days. Londie also stated she is fully prepared to take the matter as far as necessary, including pursuing civil damages.

Petition Launched to Remove Minnie Ntuli from TV and Radio
Public backlash has followed swiftly. A petition launched on Friday calling for Minnie Ntuli to be removed from radio and TV has garnered thousands of signatures in less than 24 hours. The petition cites concerns over Ntuli’s alleged violent behavior, questioning whether she remains fit to hold public-facing roles.
The campaign is gaining traction on social media, with hashtags like #RemoveMinnieNtuli and #JusticeForLondie trending across South African platforms.
Minnie Ntuli Yet to Respond to Allegations
As of publication, Minnie Ntuli has not issued a public statement regarding Londie London’s claims or the growing petition. Repeated requests for comment from her management have gone unanswered.
Ntuli’s silence has only intensified speculation, with some fans accusing her of avoiding accountability. Others, however, have urged for a fair legal process and warned against a premature “cancel culture” response before a court ruling.
Meanwhile, her employers at Gagasi FM and RHOD producers are facing calls to suspend Ntuli pending investigation. Both parties have yet to make public statements on the matter.
RHOD and Reality TV Ethics Under Scrutiny
This latest controversy has reignited debate around violence and accountability in reality television. Critics argue that reality shows like RHOD often blur ethical boundaries for entertainment value, enabling real-world harm under the guise of scripted drama.
Broadcasting regulators have received complaints, and watchdog groups are now calling for stricter guidelines governing the conduct of reality TV stars, especially when violence is involved.
What’s Next for Minnie Ntuli?
With legal proceedings looming and public sentiment shifting, Minnie Ntuli’s professional future appears uncertain. If Londie’s case proceeds, the outcome could have wide-ranging implications for how celebrity misconduct is handled in South Africa’s entertainment industry.
For now, Ntuli finds herself at the centre of a storm that has moved beyond the screen, where courtrooms and public opinion will likely determine her next chapter.
