Melany and Peet Viljoen, former *Real Housewives* stars, were arrested for allegedly stealing $5,300 in groceries using a ticket-switching scheme.
Melany and Peet Viljoen, former stars of *The Real Housewives of Pretoria*, were arrested in Boca Raton, Florida, on March 10, 2026, on felony charges of aggravated grand retail theft.
Authorities allege they stole over $5,300 in groceries from a Publix supermarket between August 2025 and March 2026 using a "ticket-switching" tactic at self-checkouts, failing to scan 392 items across 52 transactions.
Surveillance footage showed Peet distracting staff while Melany scanned low-cost items and bagged high-value goods like wine, sparkling water, and toilet paper.
Both were held on $10,000 bonds, with Melany claiming she acted alone due to immigration and employment barriers, though evidence suggests collaboration.
The case may lead to deportation, as a felony conviction could trigger removal under U.S. law.
