Minki exercises on set ’cause that’s how supermodels roll

When push comes to shove, exercising on set is the most normal thing in the world – especially when you are Minki van der Westhuizen.


Life as a television presenter and supermodel can undoubtedly become chaotic quite quickly, limiting the time you have available to spend at the gym. Minki van der Westhuizen doesn’t allow that to get in the way of getting her steps in, though.

The mother of three recently shared a video of herself lunging all the way onto set, ensuring that she works out those glutes. And, she did it in style, wearing a fashionable green jumpsuit and heels for the filming of one of the episodes of her VIA programme, MINKI.

This video is no longer available.

In the video, the person behind the camera laughingly asks Minki what she’s doing. “I’m exercising,” Minki says, explaining that she doesn’t have time to exercise. “That’s how hard I am working,” Minki says.
