Uthando Lodumo S2: Babes Wodumo wants a paternity test for Mampintsha
Babes Wodumo has found herself in a rather sticky situation. The mother of one, who’s been married for over a year, suspects that her husband, fellow musician Mampintsha might have fathered a child with someone else. If you’ve been following the couple’s reality show since the first season, you might be aware that they’ve had their fair share of ups and downs, with Babes even talking about infidelity in the relationship.
In episode 8 of Uthando Lodumo S2, Mampintsha got the shock of his life after Babes asked for help with a paternity test. The Wololo hitmaker requested help from Mampintsha’s lawyer, who was in their house for another matter regarding their marriage.

Did Mampintsha impregnate another woman?
After their conversation, the couple walked the lawyer out and Babes asked: “I just wanted to ask if you know of anyone that can help us with a paternity test?”
The lawyer said he’d refer her to someone and left. “Both the lawyer and I were shocked. I don’t understand what she’s talking about. I see right there that the drama is about to start,” Mampintsha shared. He asked why she’d bring this up as the lawyer was about to leave. He added: “She came in like a wrecking ball to ask about a paternity test?”

Three is a crowd
Babes believes that there’s an issue and it must be resolved. She revealed that she heard some rumours about her husband and another woman. “Someone out there has the guts to take me on and I’m interested to know who this girl is that has the nerve to come take me on. I heard Mampintsha has a child with a girl from South Beach,” she said, adding: “There’s a lot being said, but I’ve also done my own digging.” So, what’s the way forward? Well, Babes wants to meet up with the woman so that she can determine whether the rumours are true or not.
