The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip never fails to deliver the drama, but this time, it’s not just the on-screen catfights that have viewers buzzing.
Lethabo ‘Lejoy’ Mathato, a prominent reality TV star, found herself at the centre of public scrutiny over her recent Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) procedure.

It all started when a picture featuring Lejoy alongside fellow reality stars LaConco and Londie London went viral. Social media erupted with mixed reactions, and viewers didn’t hold back their opinions.
Critics were quick to point out the less-than-stellar results of Lejoy’s cosmetic procedure, with some even dragging the doctor responsible into the fray.
One particularly vocal critic, @lesego04081, took to Twitter to express their dismay: “Dr Pert is evil- and must account for her sins. What is this?”
It’s clear that the dissatisfaction isn’t just aimed at Lejoy; the doctor who performed the Brazilian Butt Lift is also under fire. Words like ‘horrible’ and ‘disastrous’ have been thrown around, painting a vivid picture of the public’s reaction.

As with most reality TV controversies, it’s hard to discern whether the uproar is warranted or simply exaggerated for dramatic effect.
Cosmetic procedures are always a gamble, and the results can be hit or miss. In Mathato’s case, it seems the public opinion has landed squarely on the ‘miss’ side of the spectrum, at least for now.
Regardless of the outcome, one thing is for sure: the Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip has once again proven its ability to keep viewers glued to their screens, for better or worse. Whether Lejoy’s Brazilian Butt Lift will turn into a redemption story or remain a cautionary tale is yet to be seen.
