The Bala Family is a new Mzansi Magic reality show that has been a must-see for television audiences since its debut in April 2023. Since then, it appears that an increasing number of viewers are becoming interested in the reality show, which is marketed as being comparable in terms of the dynamics of a nuclear family.
As a result of the show’s popularity. Viewers have begun to form archetypes out of the various family members. As a result, it has been determined that Sis Pinky and Zwai, the oldest, are the family’s leaders.
Veronica Jafta is viewed as the love-first character, prioritizing her own happiness over that of her children. This is because Veronica has been honest about her desire for love, even if it means endangering her children in the process.
Then there’s Phelo Bala, the last born, who is rightfully regarded as the entitled spoilt brat.
Their honest conversations are so hectic… Hope they find their togetherness as brothers yhooo #TheBalaFamily pic.twitter.com/sdNfH7HDrN

However, the latest episode seemed to shine a light on the dynamics of Loyiso Bala and his marriage to his wife and mother of his three children, Jennifer. A fact which has led to the belief that the real villain of the reality show might be Jen…
Is Jen Bala the villain of The Bala Family? During the start of The Bala Family, the matter of Jennifer Bala and her alleged failure to be the exemplary wife figure in the family was already alluded to by Sis Pinky.
However, it was during the most recent show that viewers became enraged by Jen’s apparent lack of effort in bridging the already poor connection between her husband Loyiso and his family. Veronica, his mother, in particular.
As a result, when Jen seemed uninterested in having her children bond with their grandmother, fans turned to the timeline. As she said, the children’s “schedule” and routine would be disrupted if they stayed at their grandmother’s.

Mother in-law's have had a rich history of being toxic that we have focused on condemning it so much we didn't notice WE ARE ENABLING SUCH BEHAVIOUR…

Jen appears to have changed her mind since filming the show. This is as she used Mother’s Day to reveal how she dressed up, drove with her kids, and spent the day catering to her mothers. Maybe after watching the show, she realized her mistake and is altering her ways…
