Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it Mzansi aren’t happy with the fact that Gaisang K. Noge will play the role of Naledi in The Wife ShowMax (Qhawe’s partner). (Read More Here).
From the novel written by Dudu Busani Dube, it shows a plus size woman or a kind of fat woman would fit best in the role for The Wife ShowMax.
According to most Mzansi, they are saying Gaisang K. Noge isn’t plus size enough to play such role. Also, Mzansi suggested Paballo should have been called to play the role, instead of Gaisang K. Noge

In the book, Qhawe tries to hide her phone from her because of the body shaming posts & thinkpieces on social media & tabloids. Naledi’s story would’ve brought back viewers bc it would’ve been a story many related to but hardly experience on SA TV. Yoh, a mess.

No but her weight played a significant In showing how plus sized women find it difficult to fit in and believe that there is actually someone who can actually love them. Naledi was made to represent us plus size women.

Nywe, nywe, nywe book readers are hating. Of course I’m gonna hate, they’ve turned a good thing into a mediocre storyline. Naledi’S weight played a SIGNIFICANT role in her story. That’s one of the elements the producers should’ve stuck with but nooo. #TheWifeShowmax.

Paballo Kgware would’ve been the perfect Naledi as described by the book . I’m disappoint tbh.

Pretty from Gomora or Paballo from TikTok would have played a very good thick Naledi that we read in the book. Stain glass should have never been given this deal from the beginning cause all their shows just go left at times. Sis Dudu deserved way better and the fact that her books were disrespected in this way is annoying. Those books are still a huge part of my life and they ruined it.
