Life with Kelly Khumalo S3: Are Kelly and Zandi ready to reconcile?
If there is one thing we’ve learned from Life With Kelly Khumalo S3, it’s that no matter how bleak things may seem for Kelly and her family, she will try to make amends by any means possible.
After three years of not having a relationship with her sister, Zandi, Kelly wants to make things right. The siblings had a public fallout, with Zandi taking to social media to announce that she was “divorcing “ her “toxic” sister.
She released a statement on her Instagram page and wrote: “If I was divorcing my husband maybe it would have been a little bit easier and lighter but I am separating from a person I have known for all my life and have shared laughs, pain, excitement and disappointment with all my life with, my sister.” Their public separation got tongues wagging and it now looks like Kelly feels the gap left by Zandi’s absence.

A family meeting
Kelly explained on the second episode during therapy: “I lost three years of my relationship with my sister. I lost seven months of my relationship with my godson. I can’t just overwrite it, hence I’m fighting for this to be done properly.” On the latest episode of her show, Kelly told her mother to organise a meeting with Zandi. “You will decide when and if it means we must get like a neutral place where we can all meet. I can plan that. And then you can speak to her and check both out availabilities,” she told her mother.
Kelly added that Zandi just has to show up. She then told her mother, Ntombi: “And also ask her how she feels about having a therapist there.” Ntombi seemed happy about Kelly’s suggestion and agreed to arrange the meeting. While Kelly has experienced a lot of pain in her life, losing her sister has been one of her worst experiences. “Nothing has ever hurt me as much as my sister. That was a low blow,” she shared.
Finding a way forward
She added that she would have been happier if her sister had communicated about her issues with her. “I’m suggesting that everyone should address what didn’t sit well with them without the interference of anyone defending themselves. We should all listen to the one who is speaking.” Kelly feels that it’s important to have a mediator in the room when the meeting happens so that they can calm the situation. The most important thing for Kelly and her mother is to find a solution and a way forward.
We don’t know how you feel, but this meeting is long overdue. Kelly and Zandi used to be very close and have missed out on a lot in each other’s lives. Will the meeting happen? We hope so and we’d love to see it on camera! Continue to follow the singer’s journey on Life with Kelly Khumalo right here on Showmax. New episodes air every Tuesday.
