AMY KLEINHANS-CURD REVEALS SHE WAS ONCE IN JAIL

On the latest episode of the Real Housewives van die Wynlande (RHOWL), the ladies are still on vacation in Mauritius. While there, they decided to play a game of “never have I ever”.

So, when the “never have I ever been in jail” statement came up, both Amy Kleinhans-Curd and Michelle van Zyl had to drink! While Michelle revealed that she was in jail over assault, Amy revealed that she was in jail over “stealing a lipstick” from a pharmacy.

“So uhm, yes, I’ve been in jail. Hmm they thought I stole a lipstick in 1997. On that day I was thinking ‘wow, I feel pregnant’. Then I noticed a pharmacy and thought ‘ah, I’ll get myself … I walked through security and the security thing and the alarm went off. They take my bag and the lipstick falls out. Long story short, and later I’m in a cell,” she said.

BUT… IT WAS PLANTED

Amy then revealed that the three women who were in jail as well gave her a dog blanket. She thereafter revealed that she didn’t actually steal the lipstick, but it was planted on her.

The person confessed this in an interview with someone Amy knew and that was how she found out.

“But the sweet part of the story is that someone told me three years ago, ‘Amy, I was interviewing someone. I’m looking for employees and she’s sitting right in front of me. She’s exactly what I’m looking for. And then she says I did something terrible,” she said.

“She says you know when I was 21/22 years old, I planted a lipstick in a pharmacy on Amy Kleinhans,” she continued.
