Queen Nandi Dragged to Court Over Facebook Feud – Show ‘Cousin’ Exposes Her As Paid Actress

Reality TV star Nandipha “Queen Nandi” Mlobi has officially landed herself in legal hot water. Following months of messy back-and-forths, Queen Nandi has been slapped with a protection order by Vuyiseka Mpeqeka after a heated Facebook feud spiraled out of control.

The order, which was obtained at the Randburg Magistrate’s Court in July but only recently made public, requires Nandi to delete all her scathing posts about Mpeqeka. She’s also barred from contacting her directly or indirectly, verbally or emotionally harassing her, or posting about her on social media.

The court even gave Nandi 72 hours to take down her Facebook rants… but by Monday, 1 September, those posts were still sitting right there on her page. Mpeqeka has since warned that if the drama queen doesn’t comply, things will escalate to the next level.

Not Blood, Just Business

If you thought the feud was wild, wait until you hear this: Mpeqeka has revealed that she and Queen Nandi are not even related — despite the reality show introducing her as Nandi’s cousin.

According to Mpeqeka, it was all staged! She confessed that the producers of Nandi & The Rev paid her to “play cousin” and welcome Nandi into the rented home.

“Queen Nandi is not my cousin; we’re not related. The producers of the show offered me a role to act as her cousin, and I accepted it. I was paid to act that role. I was also happy to help out,” she told Sunday World.

Queen Nandi’s Facebook Feud & Reality TV Lies

The feud stems from the controversial house drama that has been haunting the reality show. The house, owned by Malawian national Juliet Nyasulu, was rented to Mpeqeka — who then sublet it to Nandi. But when tensions rose in July, Mpeqeka evicted Nandi.

Instead of letting it go, Queen Nandi jumped online, dragging Mpeqeka in Facebook posts that have since landed her in front of the courts.

And now? Fans are side-eyeing the entire show, asking how much of it is “reality” and how much of it is just scripted smoke and mirrors.
