“Kelly Khumalo Breaks Silence on Tensions with Senzo Meyiwa’s Family in New Series”
In the highly anticipated first episode of *Life With Kelly Khumalo* Season 3, South African singer Kelly Khumalo didn’t hold back in discussing her tumultuous relationship with the family of her late partner, soccer star Senzo Meyiwa. The episode, which aired on Showmax, brought to light Kelly’s ongoing struggles with her in-laws, as well as her feelings about their treatment of her and their late son.
A Candid Conversation
During the episode, Kelly sat down with her close friend, Wanda Baloyi, for a candid conversation about her experiences with the Meyiwa family. Kelly didn’t mince words, describing them as “the sh*ttiest in-laws ever.” She accused her former mother-in-law of using muti (traditional African medicine) against her, but firmly asserted that she was spiritually untouchable, claiming that any harmful intentions sent her way would ultimately come back to the sender.
Kelly’s revelations didn’t stop there. She further explained that, from her perspective, the Meyiwa family had never truly embraced her daughter, Tingo. In fact, Kelly shared that they had denied Tingo as Senzo’s child, which has strained their relationship. She emphasized that Tingo should not have a connection with them, citing their lack of love and support for the child.
**Financial Motives and Resentment**
Kelly also discussed how the Meyiwa family’s motives appeared to be financially driven, suggesting that they had always viewed Senzo more as a “cash cow” than a loved one. This belief was reinforced by an incident that occurred after Senzo’s tragic passing, when his mother reportedly focused more on financial matters than mourning her son. Kelly expressed her shock, saying, “Your son is dead, the only thing you are thinking about is food?”
She also shared her perspective on how Senzo’s financial support for his family had stretched him to the point of hardship. According to Kelly, she was often forced to step in financially after Senzo’s death, taking on the responsibility of supporting the Meyiwa family, which led to a strained relationship. She revealed that some members of the family resented her for surviving the tragedy when Senzo did not.
**The Impact of the Revelations**
Kelly’s outspoken comments have sparked widespread conversation on social media, with many expressing surprise at the depth of her revelations. Some have sympathized with her struggles, while others are questioning the dynamics between Kelly, Senzo, and his family.

This candid airing of grievances highlights the complex nature of family relationships, particularly when tragedy and financial strain are involved.
