Halala: Wedding bells for Zodwa Wabantu

Zodwa recently unveiled her 'brand new' man. Controversial socialite and reality TV star Zodwa Wabantu may soon be walking down the aisle. Earlier this week, the 39-year-old introduced her new man on Instagram, posting pictures of their lunch date. 'UBrand New usase u Brand New [my brand-new man/boyfriend],' she captioned the images. Zodwa Wabantu has made dating younger men a notable part of her brand. In 2019, she made headlines when she proposed to then-boyfriend Ntobeko Linda on stage.

'I'm not a side chick' — Tirelo Kale on why she is not married to Mpumelelo Mseleku

Tirelo Kale has shed light on why she has not tied the knot with Musa Mseleku's son Mpumelelo. The reality TV star, who is Mpumelelo's first girlfriend and has a son with him, was recently questioned by social media users after Mpumelelo paid lobola for his second partner. During a recent Instagram live , Tirelo revealed her parents did not approve of her getting married while she was still in school and had nothing to show for herself. 'There was a letter sent to my family but they refused; the letter is still there. I pleaded with my family, I even rolled on the floor,' she said. 'My family said because I'm not done with school and I'm not working, if I get married? What are you leaving with? That's why they declined the proposal and my mother said she would observe us. I was hurt when my family refused.' While social media trolls have resorted to calling her Mpumelelo's side chick, Tirelo said she is comfortable with her position in his life. 'I'm not a side chick. There's no VIP in relationships.' On Mzansi Magic's Izingane Zes'thembu, Mpumelelo showcases how he navigates polygamy. Previously speaking to TshisaLIVE, Mpumelelo said he was following in his father's footsteps, adding he understood polygamy was not about money, but he was making sure he could afford more than one wife. 'I got an opportunity to showcase what I do. How to structure polygamy and make people understand you don't start polygamy when you are old. You have to start it now and grow with it to understand the dynamics. It's not forced. It's something I was raised in. People are failing to understand that.' Mpumelelo said having witnessed his father, who has four wives, run different relationships smoothly, he knew how to do the same for his growing family. 'What I learnt from my father is to be truthful, humble and respectful and know how to apologise. 'In Zulu we have a saying that a person does what they witnessed from their father when growing up. It's like someone who grows up in a family where they have a taxi business, a person who grows up in such a home would never turn down that business.'
