Popular breakfast show co-hosts Unathi Msengana and Glen Lewis might be on the verge of a split. Rumours have been making rounds that Glen is not happy with unathi’s “condescending” ways.
According to Sunday Sun he’s been trying to break away from Unathi for several years and the only thing keeping them together is the contract he’s signed.The legendary DJ had allegedly lodged a complaint in the past but was told he’s contract-bound to work with Unathi. This allegedly happened after Glen officially requested to be removed from the breakfast team in 2012. Apparently, he was told that his contract ends this year.
They've had a great relationship on air for years. Their show, The Avenue with Glen & Unathi has been an authentication of Metro FM’s reign as one of South Africa’s best radio stations.
SA gossip website Zalebs.com reports that Glen clearly feels disillusioned with his life on The Avenue at the moment, and Unathi who scored a gig as idols judge two years ago has since “changed.”
A senior staff member at the station told Sunday Sun that they might no longer work together when the new line-up gets announced in April. The tabloid newspaper reported that a producer at the station said things are tense in the studio.
“The sad part is that Unathi won’t have The Avenue show to herself. If Glen is out, it means she’ll have to go somewhere else, but Glen feels Unathi antagonises everyone. He feels that she is rude to the listeners.
“And even the marketing team feels that Unathi is too much,” added the producer who reported on a case of anonymity.
