Young, Famous & African star Kefilwe reflects on her friendship with Zari

On Young, Famous & African season 3 episode 8, Kefilwe shared a toast to Swanky appreciating him for being a "wonderful" friend at the get-together. She also appreciated Naked complimenting him on sharing good advice. Kefilwe said:

"I mean, this party is about everyone and Swanky, thankyou so much. You have been such a wonderful friend Swanky and I think everyone else here can attest to that."

She continued shifting the conversation towards Zari. The Young, Famous & African star stated that Zari had called her marriage "fake." Kefilwe elaborated that at first, she thought she would establish a strong friendly bond with Zari but that wasn't the case. According to Kefilwe, Zari had an energy that "didn't rub off well." She said hinting at Zari:

"My life is so dramatic, hopefully, you can give me some advice. I mean with my 'fake marriage' like some people assume. I mean it has been trending quite often. Zari asked about it the other time while we were at the safari remember?"

Zari on the other hand didn't understand why this was being brought up at the dinner table. She told the cameras that it happened a week ago and that addressing this at the dinner table was not the right place or the right time. Then, Zari responded to Kefilwe calling her out on her behavior and denying that she called Kefilwe's marriage fake.

According to the Young, Famous & African star said that Kefilwe was the one who had discussed her relationship and divorce. Their argument escalated when Kefilwe and Zari were about to get into a physical altercation, but were interrupted by their fellow cast members. Kefilwe ended up declaring she had no intentions of becoming friends with Zari anymore.

Both previous seasons as well as the newly released season 3 episodes of Young, Famous & African season 3 are available to stream on Netflix. Viewers can follow the show's reality TV stars Zari and Kefilwe on their official Instagram accounts.
