South African TV and Media personality Thaamir Moerat will star in a German Reality TV show called "Wo die liebe hinfällt" (Where Love Falls) which will air on the popular VOX channel in Europe.
The show centers around couples whose love is unusual being exposed to society's gaze every day and how they deal with criticism and opposition.
Thaamir currently hosts the lifestyle show Prime Culture in South Africa, Sunday nights on DSTV 345 and is the owner of the global 1-minute film festival.
Wo die liebe hinfällt focuses on his life with German model and TV personality Nadja Cleven in Germany and South Africa, and the difficulties of integrating into a different country and adapting to the German culture and customs.
"When I was approached by the network I just laughed and thought why not. I did reality TV back in South Africa before with the 2 season 13 episode sales show "Sell Hard" years ago, and then again with Mr South Africa "The Journey" where I was head judge in 2013/14. So, I know what I'm getting myself into. Wo die liebe hinfällt will be fun and entertaining as it was a difficult transition for me setting up a base in Aachen with Nadja and our son Naeel. I'm just having a laugh anyways," said Moerat.
Nadja added that she was hesitant to show their lives on national TV but warmed up to the idea eventually.
"Thaamir's life is a reality TV show, and he loves the public persona, but I prefer going about my business and keeping my private life private. I'm very German in that sense," said Nadja.
The show will be filmed during October at their residence in Germany and back in South Africa during November and December and will be aired on the Popular Vox network in Germany during January 2023.
Local viewers will have to wait for the YouTube episodes to be uploaded.
