Speaking about the rumours of the second wife, Zandie shared that she has no problem with polygamy as she is African and was raised in a polygamous home. She further shared that she got direction from her husband.
She said:
"I am an African, and completely for iSthembu; I grew up in a polygamous home through my grandfather. I am here to build the Gumede name, and uGumede is this family's leader and head. I take direction from my husband, who loves me dearly, and I love him even more. I love that man, and I care about him, and I want nothing bad to happen to him, and the lobola negotiators from the Gumede's did ask that I leave the door open as a second wife might need to enter at some point."
