Viewers are always sitting on the edges of their seats in this season of Uthando Nes’thembu. They also can’t help but feel that Thobile MaKhumalo Mseleku is sucking up to her husband simply because she can’t give him kids.
In this week’s episode, the wife number five issue came up again. Mseleku went to visit Makhumalo to discuss the issue of taking her time to entertain the fifth wife. According to them the husband of five allocates a number of days to spend with each wife.
Now that there’ll be wife number five these days will be affected and other wives might not take it lightly. So Musa asked MaMkhumalo to give up some of her days as she’s the most understanding wife.
She responded by saying she can gladly give away her days as this wouldn’t be the first time. When MaNgwabe came into the family it called for her (Thobile) not to spend time with her husband for a full year.
Not only that she went as far as saying she’s ready to meet number five and she would have preferred if her husband came with her instead of coming alone for discussions. Hayibo! does this mean she understands the dynamics of polygamy more than the other wives? Well, viewers seem to think that she trying to compensate so it won’t be noticeable that she can’t give Mseleku kids.
Whooo!! Makhumalo would even sell her soul for this man hey!😳…🚮🚮#Uthandonesthembu pic.twitter.com/GLwfCK4AWI

I feel like MaKhumalo is overcompensating that she can’t bear children. I don’t know man ,it feels that way #Uthandonesthembu

Mseleku has a soft spot for MaYeni and you can tell by how he looks at her. MaKhumalo has a soft spot for Mseleku, who doesn’t even value her that much#Uthandonesthembu

Makhumalo’s infertility will forever make her live in her shadow in this marriage. No matter how hard she tries to make herself visible to her man but he’ll continue to not respect her fully. #Uthandonesthembu

One thing about maKhumalo, she’ll never hold Musa accountable for anything and will back him up at all costs…Her name should be Ceng’umzi😭😭😭😭😭#Uthandonesthembu

I haven’t watched the episode but Makhumalo unfortunately is the type that got married to attain a better life. Musa is her license to wealth plus she was told “nyamezela ikaka yase mzini mtanam”! She is the type that dies inside to be perceived as a humble and respectful wife🤮 https://t.co/rPQ8eTfsgj

I have no respect for MaKhumalo, how do you allow yourself to be played by a man like that #Uthandonesthembu

You took another turn and proved that Musa doesn’t rate MaKhumalo. Why would the woman sacrifice to please the man but the man can’t do the same?? She’s doing everything to make him happy because she feels bad that she can’t give him kids

If we’re being honest, MaKhumalo couldn’t really say to no 5 because she was used as an excuse to take the wife in the first place! And I think her being so ‘accepting’ pisses of Mbali and MaYeni. #UthandoNeSthembu

I feel MaKhumalo is overcompensating & making things life too easy for Mseleku because she feels she doesn’t have a right to be ‘difficult’ like the other wives as she doesn’t & can’t have children. I won’t judge her. She just deserves better than that man. #Uthandonesthembu

Makhumalo is sacrificing so much for Mseleku who cant even sacrifice to give her children of her own. #Uthandonesthembu

Am I the only one who thinks that Mseleku has successfully manipulated MaKhumalo into being okay with the idea of the 5th wife🤔 #Uthandonesthembu

Makhumalo is the type that will be okay with a 3sum just to please her husband. #Uthandonesthembu
