Mzansi’s controversial Gqom star Babes Wodumo has opened up about her tumultuous relationship with her mother-in-law Zamanguni Gumede.
Both parties are ready to put aside their differences after Zama dragged her for filth on a social media rant. Zama accused Babes of faking her pregnancy and hurled insults at her family accusing her father of being a crook.
In the first episode of season 2 of the Showmax Original reality series, Babes admitted that she was wrong for dragging her mother-in-law on social media. She said he is hurt after not being accepted well by her in-laws.
“I was also wrong. I did all that because I was hurting inside…I’m very heartbroken Not being accepted by my in-laws is painful. Other girls are loved by their mothers-in-law they embrace them. Mine has never embraced me. Instead, I was greeted with a video riddled with profanities,” she said.
Babes accused Zama of abandoning her son Mampintsha when he was only 3 days old. She also addressed the time when she referred to her grandson as spontshi, but Babes said the sponge messes it’s diapers and does all the things a baby does.
“She mustn’t f***k with me, I’ll fetch her. She’s drunk,” says Babes who then phrased her husband Mampintsha who defended her and said she was drunk, she did not mean it. However, Babes said she is drunk from the s***t she was talking.
Zama said she felt disrespected by Babes’ actions “I was really annoyed. I felt disrespected. You’re my only son and I’m your mother. I deserve to be respected.
“I’m not her friend. I’m her mother-in-law. It would’ve been better if she had sworn at me over the phone instead of on social media. She was out of hand.”
She said the only way she would forgive her is for her to pay damages.
“She needs to pay damages, For the profanities, she needs to pay,” she said, Zama said she is not Babe’s friend, but her mother-in-law. Daily Sun recently reported that Babes and her mother-in-law are still at loggerheads.
The publication reported that their fight had escalated to a point where Zama has even allegedly disowned Babes. Besides Zama disliking Babes and disapproving of her, the underlying cause of this is the alleged outstanding Showmax payments owed to Zama and Mampintsha’s sister Pinkie.
The fight got heated after Babes allegedly shared a WhatsApp status declaring how much she hates her mother-in-law. “This is why I hate my mother-in-law. It’s all the sh*t she does and she is full of drama.”
According to the publication, Zama had already caught wind of Babes’ status aimed at her, and she also said she hates her because she allegedly abuses her son.
“Babes, is not wife material.”
“I don’t want to ever see her again mainly because she abuses my son,” she said. We cannot wait for the new season of Uthando Lodumo to learn more about their feud.
