Mampintsha’s mother takes a swipe on son and Babes Wodumo again
We can all agree that Mampintsha and Babes Wodumo have become that couple we all love to hate. Recently the power couple welcomed their new bundle of joy. Yes, last week Babes Wodumo gave birth to a bouncing baby boy. No doubt Mzansi weighed into the good news with some congratulatory messages that set the net ablaze.
However, of interest is Mampintsha’s mother who trended a few months ago after rubbishing Wodumo’s pregnancy. In the mix of things, she has pulled a shocker yet again. Definitely, Mzansi’s is happy for their fav couple but one person is not feeling the love. Mampintsha’s mother, Zama Gumede, claims her famous son is neglecting her after she spoke “the truth”.
Zama said that her famous son Mampintsha, whose real name is Mandla Maphumulo, had stopped buying her groceries and maintaining her. This after she lashed out at Babes Wodumo, in a video in April, accusing her of faking her pregnancy. Zama said she spoke the truth, which cost her a son.
“I live in KwaMashu and Mandla lives in Westville, but he no longer comes here to check on me. He stopped buying me groceries because I spoke the truth. But it’s okay. Maybe I’ll see him walk through the gate one day.”

On Wednesday, 16 June Mampintsho and Babes – whose real name is Bongekile Simelane – shared a photo of their newborn son on social media. Asked to comment on the birth after she had told Mzansi that Babes faked her pregnancy, Zama said she stood by what she said.
“I heard that Babes gave birth to a son. They didn’t tell me. I heard it from strangers. What I said on that video was true and I’ll stand by it. But if there’s really a son, I hope to see him one day and hold him as he’s my grandson.”
Commenting on the couple’s upcoming reality show Uthando Lodumo, which will be aired on Showmax later this month, Zama said she’d deal with Babes if she says anything bad about her on the much-anticipated show. Contacted for comment Mampintsha declined to comment on the matter. However, he had this, to say:
“I just got married and had a son, and I’m focusing on that. My mum is my mum. I’m not going to comment on what you’re asking me.
