The drama started when Pearl suggested that Lerato failed to return her shades.
Pearl’s fans then went in on Lerato and demanded to know why she was being so shady by not returning what does not belong to her?
Some even used the hashtag, “Bring Back the Shades”, when tweeting Lerato.
But Lerato's fans hit back and accused Pearl of embarrassing Lerato on social media.

A few hours later Pearl tweeted:
What am I supposed to be looking at here? And when are you returning my shades? 😞 https://t.co/094hoDWDlE

*Notice, how Lerato deleted the tweet Pearl was replying to. Hmmm, interesting!
But it seems neither Lerato or Tweeps got the joke:
😂 Your shades? 😂😂 https://t.co/8PB0bNAIZ9

Pearl tried to set the record straight:

But fans were not buying it…

Well, whether you believe Pearl was joking or not, it is water under the bridge between the two stars.
They’ve kissed and made up, and are probably laughing at the joke gone wrong over a glass of wine.
