According to Khumalo, the rapper has not made enough effort to fight to see his son. Taking to Twitter, she said:

“All I hear is excuses… any parent who wants to be present in their kid's life will fight tooth and nail for that to happen, no matter the circumstances, if not the court is always there to mediate in such situations. Fullstop. ‪#LifeWithKellyKhumalo”‬

Jub Jub had previously expressed that it was Khumalo that was doing her utmost to keep him away from the child. Social media users weighed in with their thoughts on the family dispute.

“Well said Kelly.”

@jahlady1 said:

“And you can't force someone to have relationship with their kids if they don't want to. It's emotionally draining...”

@mtakajesu1 said:

“Kelly, all I wanna do is meet you one day... DO NOT TALK, give you a tight hug, smile... and we go separate ways... sister love.”

@nkulerrh said:

“I think he doesn't want to piss you off cause he knows you well rather stay low-key as much as he would likes to see his child but he doesn't want to intrude because I once read where it said you did not want him to see or be anywhere with your child.”
