To be fair, I’ve stopped watching 7de Laan lots of times in the past. Sometimes for a few weeks. Sometimes for a few months. I may even have stopped watching 7de Laan for a few years at some point. There’ve been many reasons why I stopped watching the show. Storylines or life. At some point,
So I watched the first episode of The Estate on YouTube earlier today and there’s not been any sign of 7de Laan’s Vince and Bonita yet, but it’s been mentioned in various spaces online that Vince and Bonita will be reunited and together again as husband and wife on SABC 3’s new soapie/telenovela.

We’ve been teased enough times with gay relationships on 7de Laan, but tonight they took it up a level when Shawn and Emile shared a sweet but passionate kiss. I really couldn’t be happier!

I’ve recently written a post about how much I actually like 7de laan these days, which in the era of hating everything, I know is a bit of a rarity. However, nothing good and positive lasts a lifetime. I must admit that I do not like disaster storylines. I barely even like disaster movies. So
So recently 7de Laan hit us and Justin with the bombshell that De Wet Basson aka Ben Cronje, Sandra Stutterheim’s former henchman, is his biological father. I seriously loved the reveal and laughed with delight. Not so much the fact that Justin is now all of a sudden De Wet’s biological son, but just the
