The new host is not really worried about the negativity that might come with being on the show.

We've all see how cruel some people were to Ayanda Mpama on social media. The TV presenter received a lot of hate from viewers, with some calling for her to be replaced. 

The former Our Perfect Wedding host didn't even finish her season when she was replaced by Tumi Morake, who had left the show.

Tumi is currently wrapping up season five and will be replaced by Thembisa Mdoda, who officially starts in January 2016.

Now the question on our minds is: will Thembisa cope with the hate tweets? Is she ready for people's comments on social media?

When asked about this on CliffCentral's The Buzz on Tuesday morning, she said: "Of course I'm nervous. I'm nervous about it. But I think I need to handle it the same way I've been handling my life, with utmost respect for me, my family, my children and the show that I'm working on."

She added: "We've seen what people can do to people social media. We all talk, we all gossip, I mean really that's the facts of life. It's up to you what you decide to do with it. I've decided to chuck it out the window."  

At the beginning of the interview, the mother of twins, expressed her excitement about being part of the show. "It's insane, I have to pinch myself every time. It's such a great great show and the numbers are impeccable."
