It is time for Babes Wodumo to become Mrs Maphumulo officially after the payment of her lobola a couple of months ago.
Local publication Zaleb has received confirmation from a close source to the couple that their traditional wedding ceremony is set to take place this weekend.
A couple of months ago Mampintsha proposed to Babes Wodumo live on air at the premises of Gagasi FM on their drive time show, hosted by DJ Warras, Nomalanga and Clarrisa.
A source close to the couple revealed, “Yes the wedding is this weekend, they haven’t confirmed the location as yet but I can confirm that they are getting married. This is going to be a traditional wedding.”
A close friend of the couple Sandile Makhoba also hinted that the wedding preparations are in full tilt when he took to Instagram to reveal that he has been chosen to be the Best Man.
“#umshadowodumo Thank you guys for trusting me with a position ehlonipheke kangaka (that is respected greatly) #Bestman,” Makhoba wrote.
The couple inked a R3 million deal with Showmax, who will be broadcasting their reality series titled Uthando Lodumo. The reality show was set to premiere early 2021 but it seems the couple wanted to document their entire wedding ceremony including the lobola negotiations.
According to a press release by Showmax, a part of it reads, “Babes and Mampintsha’s relationship has not been a fairy tale romance,” says Nomsa Philiso, MultiChoice Channel Director – Local Entertainment. “They’ve had serious issues as a couple, yet have chosen to remain together. The show focuses on how they have overcome their challenges, working through them with their families.”
