Reflecting on the conflict, Kayleigh told the cameras during her confessional interview that what happened between her fellow castmates "was so out of line." She continued:

The Young, Famous & African star implied that she was against Kefilwe's behavior and that her reaction was not justified regardless of what Zari had said.

Young, Famous & African cast member Kayleigh reflects on the clash between Zari and Kefilwe

On Young, Famous & African season 3, episode 8, Kefilwe confronted Zari for calling her marriage fake. Zari decided not to respond to Kefilwe until she addressed her again to clarify the matter. Then, Zari denied the allegation, stating that Kefilwe herself was the one who was discussing her relationship problems and talked about divorce.

The heated conversation led to them talking over one another despite them being interrupted by their fellow cast members. Soon, the argument led to a verbal fight, and Kefilwe threw her drink at Zari. Other friends in their group intervened and tried to stop Kefilwe and Zari, who immediately left.

After seeing this scene unfold, the Young, Famous & African cast member Kayleigh told the cameras during her confessional interview that Kefilwe's behavior was unacceptable. She said:

"You don't throw a drink at anybody. That's just f*cked up. I need to get myself out of here."

She and Naked decided to leave the event as well after Zari. Kayleigh informed Swanky that she had to go too, as the entire conflict was "a bit too much." She continued:

"I also think we're going to leave. That was just, like, a bit too much."

Later in the episode, Naked and Kayleigh discussed this major conflict between their friends Zari and Kefilwe. Kayleigh shared that she never thought something like this would happen:

"Like, I never thought that would happen."

The next season will focus on whether Zari and Kefilwe will continue to clash or come to a resolution by finding room for reconciliation.
