The third season of Kelly Khumalo’s reality show on Showmax has not shied away from the hot topics and in the latest episode, the musician heavily criticised the media.
She has openly talked about the Senzo Meyiwa murder trial, and what an amazing father he was, including divulging more information on her contentious relationship with Molemo “Jub Jub” Maarohanye, the father of her first child – Christian, .
The second episode of Life With Kelly Khumalo, started on an emotional note after her recording label Universal Music informed her that certain songs from her successful album Voice of Africa (VOA) had gone platinum. Singles such as Ngathwala Ngaye and Esphambanweni went platinum, whilst Empini went four times platinum.
Khumalo was highly emotional when she received the news and said she is preparing for new music, and that the success of VOA doesn’t put pressure on her new album.

The episode then tackled Jub Jub’s Happy Mother’s Day message to Khumalo, after he shared they needed to put their differences aside for the sake of their son.
Video clips were shown about them, including media reports, that Christian was reportedly suspended from school, after allegedly being caught with weed.
Khumalo said the media coverage of her life is an attempt to try and prove that she is a “monster” and she blocks her son from seeing Jub Jub.
Jub Jub has claimed in the past that Khumalo has not allowed him to see Christian, a claim she has repeatedly denied.
“How do you allow someone who’s never made an effort? So if you think my son, being suspended or expelled from school is based on weed, [he should] take that to court [as evidence],” she said.
