Self-proclaimed Gqom queen Bongekile Babes Wodumo Simelane has received some tongue lashing after it was announced that her mother-in-law Zamanguni Gumede has passed on.

Tweeps believe worsened Zamanguni's illness after the passing of her son by not following tradition and mourning Mampintsha as expected. Zamanguni spoke to Zimoja early this month and expressed her unhappiness after she saw videos of Babes trending on the internet for dancing and performing at nightclubs just days after her son's funeral.

@MaabuleM wrote: I'm glad Babes Wodumo and Mampintsha's mom had made peace before she passed on. Those who blame Babes for the death are fools to the core. How is Babes responsible for anything? The mother was sick and got more sicker when Mampintsha died. Leave Babes alone She's also hurting .

Mampintsha s mom passed away she enabled her son to abuse wombn through physical abuse, cheating and spreading diseases up until his death and she had the odesity 2 have a big mouth about respecting culture for her d ad son instead of Babes celebrating her freedom. Good riddance

In most cases when a child dies, one of the parent follows within a short period of space, it's understandable right, I mean the pain of burying a child is unbearable. Babes Wodumo is not to blame people, stop being insensitive. #Mampintsha #BabesWodumo

HOURS BEFORE ZAMANGUNI'S DEATH According to Mampintsha's sister Pinki Maphumulo, their mother, Zamanguni was fine during the day when they visited her, she was even making jokes and everyone was laughing.
Barely a day later, Pinki says the hospital then called her back because her mother had asked to see them but when she arrived at the hospital she was already surrounded by doctors in drips.

She told me she was old and that she was leaving. She asked if everyone was around, and I said yes. She wanted to see Sponge, Mampintsha's son and I told her he was not around. I could see the sadness in her eyes, but she did not say anything. She gave us her blessings and we spent a bit of time with her. We then left. At about 10:00 pm I received a call informing me that she's dead, continued Pinki.
Pinki also told the publication that she was not coping with the deaths of her brother and mother, I am definitely not coping, it's a double sword for me. I lost two important people within a space of three weeks. But what makes things even harder is that we were not financially prepared for this. As far as policies are concerned, Mampintsha took care of everything. We were still trying to get things in order, but I guess the time was not on our side .
