Netflix’s’ Young, Famous & African’ set for season 2

 

The first season of the unscripted reality series, which Peace Hyde co-created, premiered on the streaming service on March 18.

Young, Famous & African, the first unscripted African series to air on Netflix, will return for a second season.

Co-creator Peace Hyde posted on Instagram to confirm the continuation of the program:

“The Love for ‘YOUNG, FAMOUS & AFRICAN’ Africa’s first @Netflix unscripted original series has been incredible! Thank you to each and everyone of you all for the love and support. Well it’s official! Season 2 of #YOUNGFAMOUSANDAFRICAN is coming!”

The show, which is set in South Africa and includes 2Baba and Annie Idibia, Diamond Platnumz, Zari Hassan, Khanyi Mbau, and DJ Naked among others, chronicles a brief get-together of the African stars as friends.

The unscripted program made its premiere in March to a roaring response from viewers. How much of Annie & 2Baba's marriage was depicted on the show was at the top of the list of contentious reactions that followed the program.

For weeks after the premiere of the show, footage of Annie talking about the pain she experienced in the beginning of her relationship with the celebrity circulated online.
