Musa Mseleku's first wife, Busisiwe "MaCele" Mseleku, recently showcased her rare humour during the latest episode of Uthando Nesthembu.

On 7 May 2026, the famous polygamist was officially introduced to his firstborn daughter, Snehlanhla "Sne" Mseleku's third child, and despite having his reservations about Sne's life choices, he appeared to have made peace with the new addition to the family.

During a tense discussion with her parents about her new baby, MaCele joked with her husband that she and Sne now have the same number of children.

"Do you know that we now have the same number of children? We're both mothers of three."

Rather than a jab, the joke seemed aimed at easing the tension between a disappointed father and a daughter seeking his approval. Though it surprised viewers, MaCele’s comment served as an attempt to soften the mood by shifting the focus from judgment to family unity.

MaCele has three children, Lwandle, Abongwe, and Owami. She took over the motherly role after Sne lost her biological mother at a young age.

Despite her initial disappointment, MaCele appears to have fully embraced her new grandchild; she even named the baby.

Musa also seems to have accepted the reality of his expanding family, moving past his earlier frustrations. He acknowledged the seriousness of the situation and insisted on approaching it the right way, emphasising that things be handled with proper cultural respect and family protocol.

It was during this discussion that Sne broke down after her parents asked about the father of her child. During her diary session, she revealed that while she named her partner as the dad, it was a lie, adding another layer of complexity to an already strained situation.
