“That belly is telling me a different story 😂😍”

maonza cautioned:

“People are too forward 😮 maybe she is bloated, it happens to most of us.”

akhonaloliwe fumed:

“I have never been annoyed by a comment section like this. Are you guys okay upstairs? Zozi is a better human than I, I would have blocked you all with your “congratulations”, Niphapha too much👏👏”

angel._gumbi recounted:

“In 2019, I was so inspired by you to become 'That girl' ❤️🙂, an unstoppable force that is known by the world. Making a brand out of myself. As I grew older, life just got tougher, and that's all now, a little girl's dream. But hopefully one day life becomes kinder, and I regain my spark. Anyway, you look absolutely stunning, ma'am, and I still look up to you❤️🌸. Just a bit of hope lost along the way of life.”
