Multi-award-winning singer and media personality Kelly Khumalo recently had social media users talking when she shared her views on polygamy.

Khumalo, who previously revealed that she was pregnant with twins, slammed polygamy.

Fans of the musician predict the reality TV star may be referring to her sister, Zandie Khumalo, who recently accepted her husband's second wife.

Entertainment blogger Musa Khawula shared a video of the singer on his X account on Sunday, 14 December 2025.

"Kelly Khumalo expresses her views on polygamy," he captioned the clip.

In the video, the singer says that women who have children in polygamous marriages are the same as single mothers because their husbands have to attend to 5 or 6 other women in the marriage before they can attend to them and their children.

@lungy_Madonsela commented:

"I hate to say this, but she’s right, the sports days, the meetings you will go alone like a the single mom. Sometimes he won’t even be there to celebrate the birthdays, and my observation is that the kids of these polygamous marriages don’t get along well."

@Thebaddie02 said:

"Slowed-cooked like oxtail, soon to fall off the bone. She is looking like uMshoza now, I must say."

@Ndaba_2025 responded:

"Uya creamer ngalo cream wase Zimbabwe, I just can’t prove it!"

@Minni_Darque said:

"Ukhuluma ikak (she's talking nonsense) lo! Polygamy is way better than a kid raised by a single mother."

@Kgosetsile wrote:

"Kelly Khumalo, one of those people who are born black but die white."

@ChriExcelTrans reacted:

"So uyabona oku wrong noku right kodwa (so, she can see that she was wrong), she can't see that Meyiwa's family is still in pain and attending court till today because she doesn't want to confess."
