Although Mandisa Mkhize claims she has “forgiven” her late husband for her affair with Kelly Khumalo, it hasnt always been that way.
Last year, Kelly’s sister Zandie Khumalo testified during his murder trial that Mandisa had assaulted the singer after Senzo Meyiwa was shot and killed in October 2014.
She said during her testimony of the incident: “Mandisa kept saying ‘you have killed him,’ and we separated them”.
She added: “I told Mandisa that this was not the time.”
A year earlier, Kelly and Zandie were both arrested on charges of assaulting Mandisa. According to IOL, the incident occurred on the side of the road of the M1 South highway.
