Nonku Williams shares apologies to Beverly Steyn over financial disputes

Reality TV star Nonku Williams penned a heartfelt apology to her fellow reality TV star, Beverly Steyn, after their friendship came under public scrutiny.

This is after Beverly claimed that Nonku owes her a substantial amount of money. Recently, The Real Housewives of Durban star took to her Instagram page to sincerely apologise to Beverly.

In her statement, Nonku began by saying “I want to take a moment to speak openly and from the heart. First, I owe Beverly Steyn a sincere apology. I know I should have handled this situation differently, and I take full responsibility for my part. I’m not here to deflect, blame, or hide; I’m here to be honest,” she said.

Nonku also shared the pressure of being a single mother, and how this public fallout took a toll on her children.

“I’m a single mom for the longest time, and anyone in my shoes knows how heavy that responsibility can be. There’s a constant pressure to provide the very best for your children, especially the things you never had growing up. I can go without anything- I always have – but my kids have to be taken care of. That has always been my priority.

“What hurts the most is that the person who shared this publicly doesn’t understand or didn’t consider the mental and emotional toll this has taken on my children. My child has just started a new campus, and this should never be the first thing she’s known for. My children are innocent. They didn’t ask for this. The damage this has caused them is deeply unfair,” Nonku added.

She also said that the payment was delayed, and she had intended to pay Beverly back fully.

Beverly, who is known from The Real Housewives of Cape Town, had said the following prior Nonku’s apology: “Done creating a narrative to protect your image when people ask me what’s going on between the two of us. I can tell you one thing: whatever happens in the dark comes to light, and I’m done.

“I’m done with allowing you to betray me. I’m done with allowing you to use me and I’m done with covering up your shame.

“But anyway, back to you. I’m also done with allowing you to behave like the victim in all of this, and I’m done creating a narrative to protect your image when people ask me what’s going on between the two of us. Look, I’m just done.”
