Netflix dropped a spicy trailer for the third season of Young, Famous & African, revealing a tantalising glimpse into the drama, decadence, and chaos set to unfold on 17 January 2025 when the series launches. Eight episodes pull back the curtains on fractured marriages, fragile friendships and fresh connections. It all ends in premium tears.
South African content creator extraordinaire Kefilwe Mabote, Nollywood superstar Ini Edo, and entrepreneur Shakib Lutaaya are shaking up the ‘richest square mile in Africa’ as they join returning continental faves, including Zari “The Boss Lady” Hassan, Swanky Jerry, Annie Macaulay-Idibia, Diamond Platnumz, Naked DJ, Kayleigh Schwark, Fantana, Luis Munana, Nadia Nakai and also featuring Khanyi Mbau.
The first two seasons of the SAFTA-winning unscripted series are available exclusively on Netflix.
