The dancers told TimesLIVE that conceiving her baby came as a complete surprise to her. Considering her age and other societal factors, Qubeka had accepted that motherhood might just not be the path for her. She said:

"I fell pregnant at 37, so already by 35, I diagnosed myself saying that maybe I'm not the type to fall pregnant and in society when you don't have a child by 35, you're a write off so I wasn't expecting that it would happen."

Khabonina further told the publication how she pulled off one of the best-kept secrets in Mzansi celeb history:

"I worked for a long time while I was pregnant. Whenever I was on the set of BET's Fix My Love it was almost like she would tuck herself in, so people didn't pick it up. When I was seven months, that's the only time I took a break after but even with the break I was still running my business ... When I had to do Generations, I took my child with me. I got her a school nearby, so it always worked out."
