In as much as this is one of South Africs’s favorite Telenovela’s, fans have mixed reactions whether the show should come back with a new plot twist that would bring back interest to the drama or not come back at all.

According to fans, Season 3 has just been confusing, fans have been sharing on their social media pages about the storyline dragging for too long and not making sense, concluding that season two and three are no match for season one.

I don’t know about yoll but the wife doesn’t give me the excitement anymore I mean this week’s episodes were not as exciting as season 1 made us feel…. So disappointing.#TheWifeShowmax

Perhaps this is exactly what the channel needs, to go back to the drawing board and bring back the excitement of this show.

I used to be 5am gang, but now I first “watch” on Twitter to see if the episodes are worth watching 💔
I wonder how the actors feel about the direction of S3… sigh 🥴 #TheWifeShowmax

The plans have not yet been announced about the show when it comes back, but for now, the loyal gang of the Telenovela should cross their fingers for a prime time worthy show.
