Which housewife is this?
They have a Range Rover but live in an apartment?
This isn’t a real housewives couple. Click bait.
Real housewives of Pretoria south Africa, hence the accent
Jail them!
She looked so defeated, guilty and fu3335ed
What kind of craziness is this? What "Housewife" drives a RR but lives in an apartment that looks like a cheesy motel? And how she’s so calm and casual about being arrested, when they’ve told her nothing, tells me she knows EXACTLY why she’s being arrested. 😳 How utterly embarrassing!
The lies they’ve been spewing about “white genocide” in South Africa 🇿🇦,”…. then coming to steal in the US 🇺🇸…. Shame shame shame 🚮 🚮
Who are these people
You think the producers of VH1 would vet people who are homeless and have to steal groceries before casting them lol
You would think they would have learned their lesson casting lil scrappy😂
I don't know of these ppl, but I can tell you that these days, even though you walk out, these businesses are keeping records and will arrest you for previous crimes committed in the store.
Felony theft is the least of their problems. ICE will probably take an interest in this.
And the detective is BLACK😂😂😂😂😂. Karma baby!!!
Invoke TRUMPS NAME😂😂😂😂he’ll come to the rescue 😂😂😂😂
lol what pathetic creatures
Nikhona zinja? 😂🇿🇦
