Are the potential brides ready for the next chapter, or will they crumble under the pressure?
The previous season was full of drama and some heart-warming moments as we saw how the couples navigated their relationships while the potential brides tried their best to blend in with the families.
From cultural expectations and different backgrounds, the journey was not as smooth as some of the potential brides like Refiloe Lesia, Sophie Ngwenya and Pinky Makgwale, thought it was going to be.
This season promises to escalate the drama, with unexpected twists and emotional confrontations set to captivate audiences.
• “Makoti, Are You The One?” season 3 is set to air on Mzansi Magic (DStv channel 161) on Sunday, March 30 at 6pm.
