Can u post memet and vita from champion on netflix.Thank uu

Just posted! Sorry, it's taken so long. I saw this suggestion and then watched the show, but forgot to post it when I did! By the way, great suggestion, the grip that show had on me? I watched in one night. The family's narcissism towards Vita was so stressful and Memet had me a bit concerned with how hard he rode for the brother, but I'm glad he came through in the end.

When 2 of my faves on different soaps meet & hook up.

Elite's Ivan spent some time in South Africa in S4 of Blood & Water and had fun with Puleng. 💋 🥂 🪷 🌺

(I enjoyed it for what it was, a fun fling that was mostly unproblematic and angsty especially compared to their other romantic relationships. They didn't try to make it more than it was considering Ivan's limited time at Parkhurst but they definitely found something special and appreciated in each other. Good chem too.)
