Dineo Ranaka is back

Dineo Ranaka is perhaps one of the few South African stars who has made a success of a reality TV show.


Despite the drama which came with her break up from rapper Lesego Moiloa aka Black Les; her journey as a single mother and conflicts with her family, Ranaka is still not sure of the formula for Dineo’s Diary’s success.

“I’ve always asked myself: what did I do to keep the cameras rolling?,” she says.

“Even though I’m ecstatic about about the show, I’m also nervous because its hard to maintain success on TV.”

Ranaka’s break up with Black Les last year made headlines. Black Les even accused Ranaka of using the show to paint him as a bad father who does not support his child.

In the new season, Ranaka shows off the new “love of her life.”

Limiting the number of interviews she does with regards to her personal life, Ranaka says the answers are on Dineo’s Diary.

“I want people to make their own conclusion about my relationships and not from elsewhere.”

With a contract as the face of Legit, a new boyfriend and another opportunity to be on the small screen Ranaka hopes to move on and focus on the positive things in her life.

Dineo’s Diary’Season 3 premiers on Friday, June 20 at 7pm. For more information visit vuzu.dstv.com
