Babes Wodumo put up a brave front at the funeral of Mampintsha's mother on Saturday.

There was great speculation that the singer was banned from attending the service following her public feud with Zamanguni Gumede.

The Wololo hitmaker spoke well of the deceased and said Zamanguni was like a mother to her because she gave birth to her late husband Mampintsha.

She said the issues she had with Zamanguni and her in-laws are in the past because God has taught her forgiveness. Babes joked that it's also normal for families to fight and have drama.
