Award-winning Gqom queen Babes Wodumo is set to make a highly anticipated return to television with her latest venture, a deeply personal reality show titled Wena Wodumo. Premiering on Moja Love (DStv channel 157) at 8.30 pm on Saturday, 29 March, this groundbreaking series marks a new chapter in her life and career.
A New Chapter in Babes Wodumo’s Journey
Following the heartbreaking loss of her husband, the late music star Mandla “Mampintsha” Maphumulo, Babes Wodumo is ready to share her story with the world. In this new Babes Wodumo reality show, she opens up about her journey from the very first day she became a widow. “This season is different — it’s my journey from the first day I became a widow. My aim is to tell my story because I won’t get a chance to tell it again,” she confides, promising an unfiltered look into her life after loss.
The Emotional Depth of the Babes Wodumo Reality Show
Wena Wodumo delves into the raw emotions of grief, conflict, and healing. Unlike her previous television ventures—where she shared the screen with her late husband on Uthando Lodumo—this reality show is entirely centered on Babes Wodumo. The series exposes the emotional conflicts, bouts of depression, and moments of heartbreak she has experienced, while also revealing her day-to-day life as a dedicated mother and a dynamic artist.
“This time, there’s no Mampintsha — it’s just me, my family, and my in-laws. There are so many conflicts, moments of depression, and heartbreak from our loss. It’s really different from my other shows. I have poured my heart out to the public for this show.”
Finding Strength in Family and Faith
One of the most challenging aspects of her journey has been adjusting to life without her partner. Babes Wodumo candidly discusses the pain of returning home to an empty space, a stark reminder of the love she once shared. Yet, amid the sorrow, her family has been her steadfast pillar of support. “They have been my pillar of strength. Seeing me go through so much, they went through it with me,” she explains, emphasizing that family and prayer have been her refuge during these testing times.
Honouring a Legacy Through New Music
In addition to revealing her personal journey on screen, Babes Wodumo is set to make waves in the music industry once again. The upcoming season not only showcases her resilience and vulnerability but also heralds the release of her new music.
