‘Life With Kelly Khumalo’ season three: Four bombshells from episode one!

The third season of South African singer Kelly Khumalo’s reality show released on Showmax on Tuesday 5 July and the episode was nothing short of dramatic! Here are four bombshells from the first episode alone. 

KELLY KHUMALO SAYS SENZO’S FAMILY DIDN’T LOVE HIM 

Kelly Khumalo and later South African soccer star Senzo Meyiwa share a daughter named Thingo together. So, Senzo is the singer’s ex-boyfriend and “baby daddy”. Thingo was only a few months old when Senzo was killed on 26 October 2014. 

Kelly did not shy away from the drama she has with Senzo’s family. She head on addressed his mom going to a witch doctor to get rid of her and she claimed Senzo’s family never loved him but instead just used him for money.

“That family did not love Senzo. They never loved him, he was the cash cow. You know the first thing that women said when Senzo passed on? She said who is going to feed us. Your son is dead, the only thing you are thinking about is food,” she said.

A MIDDLE FINGER TO JUB JUB 

Kelly also addressed her other “baby daddy” TV host Jub Jub’s controversial Mother’s Day post to her. The singer and Jub Jub have a son named Christian together. 

Jub Jub leaked voice notes between himself and Kelly on an episode of MacG’s Podcast And Chill. He gave off the impression that the Empini hitmaker did not allow him to see his son. So, when he dedicated a Mother’s Day post to her she was less than impressed.

“Everyone is wishing every mother in the world and then boom! Christian’s father…,” she said.

Kelly says she reacted with a middle finger to the former Uyajola 9/9 host.

“I know a man who wants a relationship with his child when I see one. I will never stand in the way of that. However, don’t disrespect me,”

KELLY SAYS HER DAUGHTER ‘NEEDS’ SENZO 

She may not have had many good things to say about Senzo’s family but she praised the former Bafana Bafana captain for being an amazing dad. Kelly went on to say that their daughter Thingo needs her father.

“Senzo, I mean really… she needs you. I’m saying this because I experienced Senzo as a father. What an amazing dad. He would have those moments where he would say, okay if you are not going to talk to me, I’m going to talk to Ma, but if anything I’m going to be present in my daughter’s life,” she said.

THE SINGER AND HER MOM RECONCILE 

Kelly and her mom Ntombi have had a rocky relationship and at the end of season two the singer claimed her mom failed as a mother. However, the pair have reconciled at the start of season three and are at peace.

“Where am I relationship wise with my mother? Personally I’d like to think and believe that we are in a better place than we were last time,” she said. 

“We talk more, we laugh more, we love each other more and there’s less commotion,” she continued.
