Izingane Zes'thembu is back, and it wasted no time delivering the drama fans signed up for. In the very first episode of Season 4, Tirelo Kale sat down for a candid interview and confirmed what many had been speculating about: her polygamous husband, Mpumelelo "Sbindi" Mseleku, has a new girlfriend — and she even revealed the woman's identity.
The clip, filmed partly in a lush outdoor garden restaurant setting and partly in a brightly decorated studio interview space, shows Tirelo speaking directly to the camera with her signature composed demeanour.

The segment carried the playful on-screen caption "Wawuza la nomunye usisi," which translates loosely to "you came here with another girl," underscoring the lighthearted yet pointed tone the show's editors leaned into.
Sbindi Mseleku confirmed that his girlfriend's name is Fortunate Xaba. He previously sparked a frenzy when he reshared another woman's video on his Instagram stories.

Thando Dlamini couldn't hold back the laughter:

With the Mseleku family no stranger to public scrutiny, Season 4 appears set to deliver its most talked-about instalment yet, and it's only episode one.
Mpumelelo Mseleku's relationship history
Mpumelelo Mseleku’s romantic journey has continued to attract attention as his family grows and his relationships evolve. He shares two daughters with his first baby mama, Vuyokazi Nciweni, whom he once planned to include in his isithembu before they went their separate ways. Vuyokazi later got engaged to Xolani Sabelo in August 2024, as reported by Briefly News.
Mseleku also shares a child with former fiancée Nompumelelo Makhanya. He is currently linked to long-term girlfriend and baby mama Tirelo Kale, who was previously expected to become his first wife. However, lobola was reportedly paid for Amahle Gasela, whose relationship with Mseleku later became the subject of breakup speculation. The current status of that relationship remains unclear.
