Babes Wodumo, a popular singer and dancer, has opened up about the situation and explained why she kept her child’s face from the world.
The birth of Mampintsha and Babes Wodumo’s first son on June 16, 2021 put an end to rumours circulating at the time that she was lying about being pregnant and was in fact not pregnant at all.
Zamanguni Gumede-Zuma, Babes Wodumo’s mother-in-law, never liked her, and she accused the Gqom Queen of carrying a sponge on her abdomen so that she could pretend she was pregnant. Babes Wodumo was never pregnant.
“He will be one year old. I am overjoyed due to the fact that Sponge has very little contact with other people. You are aware that he remains hidden at all times. Today is a momentous day. As a new mother, I really don’t want anyone to see or touch my baby. This is something that a lot of people don’t realise, but it’s the truth. Strange rituals are practised by some individuals, and I don’t want my child to be around those kinds of people.
I don’t even want him to be photographed since there are other children out there who are dying. Because you discover that your husband’s girlfriend has used a picture of the two of them to cast a spell that is harmful to them. Now, for the very first time, my child will have the opportunity to communicate with other people. Because he never leaves his house and only a select few individuals know about it.
Following the delivery of her child, the singer behind the hit “Wololo” gave her child the nickname “Sponge” in response to the allegations made by Mampintsha’s mother. Babes waited many months after giving birth before revealing the appearance of her child to the general public for the first time.
She did not reveal the pregnancy to anyone until just recently, and she did so using her husband’s own Instagram account, which has already gained 60,300 followers.
Babes Wodumo and Mampintsha celebrated their son’s first birthday on the most recent episode of their reality show, Uthando Lodumo, which aired on November 3 and can be viewed online here.
