😢 SHOCK CONFESSION! Tirelo Says She REGRETS Having a Baby With Mpumelelo – Fans STUNNED by Her Painful Truth 💣💬
Tension has been rising for weeks on Izingane Zesthembu Season 3, but nothing could have prepared viewers for the moment Tirelo, one of Mpumelelo Mseleku’s baby mamas, broke down and admitted she regrets having his child.

The emotional bombshell didn’t just shake the room—it ripped through the hearts of fans, sparking an online storm of sympathy, outrage, and disbelief.
In a private sit-down interview on the show, Tirelo’s voice trembled as she spoke her truth.
“If I could go back, I don’t think I would’ve chosen to have a child with him,” she said, tears streaming down her face.
“It’s not that I don’t love my child—I do, with my whole heart.
But this life? This drama? The broken promises? I didn’t sign up for this.
Her words were a direct hit to Mpumelelo, who was not present during the emotional confession.
But viewers could feel the weight of everything Tirelo has endured—the loneliness, the lack of emotional support, and the sense that she’s become just another number in a growing list of baby mamas fighting for scraps of attention from the polygamy-proud Mseleku son.
Fans who’ve been watching closely knew Tirelo’s pain wasn’t new.
From early in the season, she’s often appeared distant, frustrated, and emotionally drained.
While she has never fully clashed with Mpumelelo on screen, the tension between them has been undeniable.
Now, that underlying pain has erupted into a full-blown reality check—and she’s not holding anything back.
Social media has since exploded with reactions to Tirelo’s heartbreaking confession.
Hashtags like #TireloDeservesBetter, #MpumeleloMustGrowUp, and #IzinganeZesthembuDrama have been trending non-stop.
“She didn’t say she regrets her child—she regrets the man who gave her the child.
Big difference,” one user posted.
“Tirelo is speaking for so many women who feel trapped in broken dynamics.
Another added: “Mpumelelo thinks fatherhood is just about dropping off gifts and showing up with cameras.
Tirelo is raising that child alone, emotionally and mentally.
Critics of Mpumelelo are not holding back either.
Many are calling him out for his carefree attitude, his dismissive behavior toward the women in his life, and his seemingly unbothered stance on the responsibilities of fatherhood.
While he often presents himself as the charming, modern-day polygamist, the reality—according to Tirelo—is far from the romanticized image he’s curated.
In a preview for next week’s episode, Mpumelelo appears visibly stunned as he’s told about Tirelo’s comments.
His response? A smirk and a shrug—followed by a dismissive “She’s just emotional.
” That single moment has already sparked fresh outrage, with fans accusing him of gaslighting and emotional neglect.
But some fans are now wondering: Is Tirelo done for good? Could this confession be her final straw? Insiders close to the production have hinted that she may be considering stepping away from Mpumelelo’s complicated web entirely—choosing peace over the constant chaos.
“She’s tired,” one source said.
“This isn’t the life she imagined for herself or her child.
And honestly, who can blame her?
As the drama continues to unravel, Izingane Zesthembu has gone from family docu-series to emotional war zone—highlighting the raw, unfiltered pain that often hides beneath the glossy surface of modern polygamy.
And in the middle of it all stands Tirelo, a young woman who dared to say what so many suffer in silence: “I regret who I chose to have a child with.
Whether this moment marks the end of her chapter with Mpumelelo or the beginning of a new one, one thing is clear: Tirelo has taken back her voice—and the nation is listening.
