Sneziey posted a touching picture of their joined hands in what looks like a hospital bed with her grandmother’s drip on her hand. The musician said she will hold onto the words of her last prayer where her grandmother said only God is faithful.The musician and her grandmother were tight-knit and Sneziey always wanted to make her proud. She recently released her debut album Izulu, following her smash hit Ungubaba, which is an urban gospel song of praise, that speaks about God’s love and mercy to his children

New mommy Zenande Mfenyana is clearly trying to lose the baby weight but the Fergusons won’t let her.

Not our breakfast pack at work having amagwinya 😩😩 have mercy @Ferguson_Films we trying to shed some kilos hle…fire fire fire 🔥

— Zenande Mfenyana (@Zenande_Mcfen) January 12, 2021

The actress took to Twitter to lament the fact that although she is trying to lose weight, their work breakfast is making it difficult for her to stay on track. While most of us would be over the moon that we are getting such a hearty breakfast at work, Zenande is not happy at all. Fans hilariously told her to not give into temptation because Connie Ferguson, the producer of the show actually has a six pack. The Queen actress has opened up about losing a friend last year. She did not go into detail about how the friendship ended but the break up is taking it’s toll on her. Not revealing the identity of the once close friend who broke up with her, she said “Unrequited love happens even in friendships kanti? It’s my first time experiencing heartbreak over a friend. I guess I must take my L in peace and let her be..The broody mom probably will not let the friendship affect her that much since her daughter is the center of her universe. The new mom gushes over her daughter a lot on social media and she does that without posting any of her pictures.

The actress also revealed that she is really loving motherhood. “This is the heaven she imagined. I see it in how happy my daughter is. It’s lovely here at mommyville.”

The new mom also said that she’d like to meet up with some of her friends from pre-school. Out of her own curiosity, she’d like to see where they are in life right now. “I have this deep longing to meet up with people I went to kindergarten with, I just wana see them and see how they’re doing and stuff you know? That’s just my curious nature playing out I guess.”
Zenande took to social media to reveal which song she doesn’t want her baby knowing, it’s the popular baby song called Baby Shark.

“One of the songs I’m not introducing my daughter to is “Baby shark” that song is annoying.” Tweeted Zendande. “She doesn’t ever have to know about it. Her swimming instructor started singing it when I took her for her floatation and I said “no ma’am, pick another song please”

Mfenyana will be making her big come back on the popular telenovela The Queen late this year. Unlike her friend Rami Chuene who bad mouthed The Fergusons, she is keeping her mouth shut. She has to keep her job afterall.
