by Bongiwe Mati

Streaming and downloading internet television service Showmax has announced a number of new shows that will get subscribers glued to their screens this new year.

Announcing that 2024 will be a big year for the streaming service, Showmax CEO Marc Jury added, “We will be kicking it off with a content slate packed with world-class entertainment from the world’s biggest brands plus more African Originals than ever before and the first ever mobile Premier League plan for Africa.”

One of those shows that will grace our screens in February is a reality show titled Widows Unveiled. 

The reality show was confirmed by the streaming and downloading service while entertainment commentator Phil Mpela shared some of the cast members late in 2023.

In a recent post Phil shared:

“The new Showmax reality show about the lives of widows of prominent entertainment industry is set to premiere in February 2024 under the title “Widows Unveiled” See the cast on my post below from last year.”

The entertainment commentator had earlier shared a post on X formerly known as Twitter with names of some of the cast members while noting that the last cast member had not been confirmed.

“Lerato Sengadi and Mpho Tshabalala in new reality show. The pair are part of new show about entertainment industry widows. The widows of Mandoza and HHP are joined on the show by actor Menzi Ngubane’s widow, Sikelelo Sishuba. Details of the show are still mum, but there is a fourth cast member I wasn’t able to confirm.”
