Reality TV drama has once again taken centre stage as Beverly Steyn from The Real Housewives of Cape Town claims that Nonku Williams still hasn’t paid back money she owes her.
Steyn recently took to her Instagram Story to express her frustration. She reposted an image of Williams wearing a luxury Gucci top and did not hold back.
“It breaks my heart that she can afford to buy these things but she won’t even call my attorneys and make a payment arrangement like she promised in her apology,” she wrote.
She also shared a screenshot revealing the price of the top, which costs a hefty R27,000.
Williams responded in a now-deleted Instagram post, addressing the situation publicly and tagging gossip blog Maphepha Ndaba.
“@maphepha_ndaba ask Ms Beverley Steyn to keep the two LV bags, red Dolce & Gabbana bag, black YSL shoes (150k+) I don’t discuss court matters publicly but since she’s spokesperson, she can consider them a gift #legalmatters,” she wrote. Her response added more fuel to an already tense situation.

On 4 February 2026, Williams released a heartfelt statement, acknowledging the situation and apologising.
“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 explained that delays in payment happen in business and insisted she had every intention of paying the money back.
“I own that I didn’t communicate the way I should have. I own the fact that I signed an agreement. I take responsibility for that.”
Despite accepting the apology, Steyn made it clear that the matter is far from over. On 5 February 2026, she addressed the situation again on Instagram, confirming that legal proceedings would continue.
“To Nonku… I have accepted your apology but my legal team is moving forward. Everything I have stated above is factual, I have receipts,” she wro
