Now, there is something that people want MaKhumalo to know and it is totally fine that they want what is best for her, but surely, they do not expect her to just take action without any proper analysis on all of this.
The thing is, there are instances where a person cannot have a child with their partner and they think that there is something really wrong with them, only to find out that they actually can have children, but they have to be with someone else.
It is unfortunate, but it is what it is, so what does all of this have to do with MaKhumalo? Well, it turns out that there are people who are looking forward to the day when MaKhumalo leaves her husband, Mseleku. They have their reasons, some have continually mentioned how Mseleku does not care about what MaKhumalo wants.
To some people, it has always been about him and only him, so the people who brought this thing up are probably hoping that MaKhumalo would find the strength to leave her marriage.
And one thing to keep in mind is that, there is no way that she can be sure that she can have children with someone else and besides, MaKhumalo probably knows about a similar story to that of Dr Winnie Mashaba.
Let us assume that MaKhumalo thinks long and hard about this, it is not like she will immediately find someone who she will be willing to have children with. This will take time and the more time it takes, the more her mind lingers, she might be over Mseleku, but she cannot have any guarantee that the man she ends up having kids with will not be worse than Mseleku.
And it is not like Mseleku is a monster, people make it seem like he is this really bad person who do not deserve to have a wife like MaKhumalo, but we do not know the reality of those two people.
Watching the show might make it seem like you know them, but you do not and if the issue here is about MaKhumalo finding her voice, then she can do that, in fact, she has started talking about the things she does not like about Mseleku’s ways.
It does not seem like MaKhumalo is being ill-treated, what we see on the show are normal misunderstandings that most people have with their partners, there are meant to be arguments.
Now and then, Mseleku will be reminded how lucky he is to have MaKhumalo, but it should be more about how lucky they are to have each other. Life is not perfect for MaKhumalo or any of the other wives, but it is all about being grateful that she has what a lot of women do not have.
People are so focused on what she does not have, they overlook everything that she has, the life she has. What do you think about this? Please share your thoughts
