The 24-year-old bride, who’s been dubbed “the villain” by viewers, was accused of stirring conflict and spreading false information about others.
Nompumelelo’s husband, Hlulani Nobeni (28) wrote down a list of all the bad things she said about him and other contestants. He then shared it with other people.
A sit-down was then held with the contestants and experts.
In her defence, Nompumelelo said things she said were twisted, adding it wasn’t how she delivered them.
“Hlulani has a problem with me. And because he wants to be the petty king, he’ll go out there and say whatever I say in a different manner, so that it’s portrayed in a certain way.
“And he looks like the good guy,” she said.
