Clayton and Wilfred faced challenges even before Love Never Lies: South Africa
Clayton and Wilfred entered the show Love Never Lies: South Africa after one year and eight months together, determined to resolve the insecurities and jealousy that had affected their relationship. For Clayton, this was his first serious partnership, and he admitted it took time to adapt to exclusivity.
Their journey was marked by challenges, including Clayton's confession of infidelity early in their relationship. Though Wilfred chose to forgive him, trust remained low, according to Clayton. Wilfred revealed he was hurt when Clayton continued speaking with an ex despite assurances to the contrary, a revelation that further strained their trust.
During the lie detector rounds, Clayton showed reluctance to fully admit forgiveness for Wilfred's past mistakes, fearing it might encourage differences between them. Meanwhile, Wilfred struggled with his doubts about Clayton’s interactions with others, leading to tension between them. In the finale, Clayton said:
"I won't do anything that like, makes him feel any type of way. I won't flirt with people, because it's me and you now."
Despite these challenges, their connection deepened as the experiment progressed in Love Never Lies: South Africa. Wilfred admitted he had plans to propose but hesitated due to constant doubts. On the other hand, Clayton spoke about his role in making Wilfred fight for their relationship and expressed commitment to improving their bond.
