Out of interest, a fan asked about the procedure the star was doing and Jojo said “I’m doing a abdominoplasty with lipo (mini tummy tuck basically).” Reflecting on the surgery, Jojo he was finally able to shower 5 days later after the surgery.
“5 days post though and I’m slowly feeling more human.. I managed to finally shower last night for the first time since surgery ( I wasn’t able to because of the foam wrap around my stomach and the blood pipe coming out my hip) I was also able to come off the morphine painkillers and switch to just normal myprodol. I’m still extremely swollen and I can’t really do much, but the best part for me is that each day I’m better then the day before. The wrap I still have to wear for the next 5 weeks is extremely uncomfortable and I’m also still stuck wearing the ugliest compression socks to help with blood flow for the next week.. But we move… upwards and onwards and one day closer to the sexiest Jojo that ever lived,” she captioned a post.
She also admitted that the procedure was painful “The pain is quite bad, I’m not going to lie. But you manage it as long as you take your painkillers. Getting up and down is very difficult.”
Mrs. Robinson also showed love to her fellow RHOD cast member Nonku Williams for paying her a visit in hospital.
“Thank you for the visit and flowers my beautiful @nonku_williams , you always make me laugh. One of the things I’m most grateful for lately are my beautiful friendships I’ve formed with my housewives girls. All I ever wanted was more friends and I can happily say my tiny circle really has grown 💚💙 durban is so lucky to have this incredible group of women to represent the warmest place to be in South Africa, and I’m so grateful to be apart of this group.”
