Headline: Polygamist’s Son Reveals Desire to Continue Father’s Legacy as New Reality Show Premieres
In an exclusive interview with Drum magazine, Mpumelelo Mseleku, the son of renowned polygamist Musa Mseleku, has opened up about his upbringing in a polygamous household and his passion for women. As the firstborn son and second child of his father, Mpumelelo is determined to carry on his father’s legacy and is set to feature in a new reality program, Izingane zeS’thembu, alongside his siblings.
At just 22 years old, Mpumelelo expresses his belief that polygamy is not a choice but rather a gift that one is born with. Drawing from his cultural beliefs, he states, “You cannot choose to be Is’thembu. It is a gift from the ancestors.” He emphasizes that it is not about wealth or financial means, as many people often assume, but rather about the blessings and approval bestowed upon an individual by the elders of the community.
When asked about his own aspirations for a polygamous lifestyle, Mpumelelo reveals that he is uncertain about the number of wives he would like to have, as it is not solely his decision but also depends on the guidance and blessings of the elders. Nonetheless, he is resolute in his desire to live a life immersed in the cultural practice of polygamy.
In an interesting twist, Mpumelelo discloses that his current primary girlfriend, Vuyokazi Nxiweni, was not his first choice when he first entered the world of polygamous relationships four years ago. He admits that as a young person, conflicts arose among the women involved, but he has since grown older and wiser. The beauty of is’thembu, according to Mpumelelo, lies in honesty and being a man of his word. Vuyokazi, understanding the dynamics of their relationship, accepted that she was not the only woman in his life. The couple now shares a three-year-old child.
Adding complexity to Mpumelelo’s relationship dynamics, it is revealed that he has been seeing Tirelo Kale, his second girlfriend, for approximately two years. However, recent news of Tirelo’s pregnancy has sparked controversy and disapproval among some members of the public.
As Mpumelelo prepares to share his family’s journey through the upcoming reality show, Izingane zeS’thembu, set to premiere this month, the spotlight on his polygamous lifestyle continues to attract both curiosity and criticism. With the show’s launch, viewers will gain insight into the daily lives, joys, and challenges faced by Mpumelelo, his siblings, and their father as they navigate the intricacies of polygamy in contemporary South Africa.
