Tsholofelo Makgalemele-Mbane and Christa Kgamphe-Jane, stars of the reality show Sports Wives, recently revealed that they were paid a measly R15,000 for their three-month stint on the show.

In an episode of Promise Makunyane’s Own Narrative Podcast, the two women opened up about their experiences and shed light on the behind-the-scenes reality of the show.

Sports Wives focuses on the lives of women married to football players for Banyana Banyana, South Africa’s national women’s football team. However, Tsholofelo and Christa expressed their disappointment with how the show’s producers misrepresented their stories for the sake of drama.

Tsholofelo, who is married to Bambanani Mbane, expressed her frustration with the producers’ exaggeration of her parents’ feelings about her marriage. She clarified that while her mother initially struggled to accept her sexuality, she never outright rejected her.

It took time for her family to come to terms with the situation, and eloping with Bambanani was a way to avoid forcing her mother into something she wasn’t ready for.

On the other hand, Christa found it relatively easier to come out to her family, as one of her aunts was already aware of her relationship with Refiloe Jane-Kgamphe.

However, she still faced resistance from her mother, who initially thought they were just best friends and worried about societal judgment.

Aside from the misrepresentation, Tsholofelo and Christa also revealed that the cast members of Sports Wives were paid a mere R15,000 for three months, which was supposedly for petrol expenses.

This revelation raises questions about the fairness and value placed on the participant’s contributions to the show.

While Sports Wives aimed to showcase the lives of these women, it seems that the reality was far from what was portrayed. Tsholofelo and Christa’s stories highlight the importance of authentic representation and fair compensation in reality television.
