WI Natal province did a secession?

I spotted a interesting info about the South African referendum of 1960 where South Africa became a republic instead of being a dominion like Canada and Australia.

The Ulster Covenant was used as a template for the 'Natal Covenant', signed in 1955 by 33,000 British-descended Natalians against the nationalist South African government's intention of declaring the Union a republic. It was signed in Durban City Hall – itself loosely based on Belfast's, so that the Ulster scene was almost exactly reproduced.

The Natal province didn't do a secession but we could wonder what if they did a secession in 1961?
