WHAT started out as verbal sparring between Vuyokwazi Nciweni and Tirelo Kale on the Izingane Zesthembu reality TV show ended up in a physical bust up.

Izingane Zesthembu is a reality show that follows the lives of polygamous businessman, Musa Mseleku’s children, with his oldest son Mpumelelo Mseleku, the leading protagonist. Mpumelelo, 23, is in pursuit of emulating his father as he strives to convene a polygamous relationship with both Nciweni, Kale and other women.

The show gives us a glimpse of their lives and how they navigate life within a polygamous family. Other cast members include Mpumelelo’s siblings, Lwandle, Abongwe, Mpilo and Sne Mseleku.

Both Tirelo and Vuyokazi have children with Mpumelelo, Tirelo has one child while Vuyokazi has two children.

In the latest episode which aired on Sunday night, viewers witnessed a brawl between Vuyokazi and Tirelo after the crew had been in a fuelled dinner at the Sun City Resort.

The drama unfolded when Vuyokazi, who is no longer in a relationship with Mpumelelo, wanted to have conversation with her regarding things that were happening while they were in a relationship.

However, the conversation was disrupted by Tirelo who walked back in the room and joined in their discussion.

The conversation escalated to Tirelo and Vuyokazi shouting at each other after Vuyokazi was now mentioning things that happened in the past, saying Mpumelelo was previously infected with an STI and that this had been hidden from her.

Things escalated very quickly as they hurled insults at each other. Not only did they hurl insults at each other but their verbal fight almost turned into physical fight.

Viewers of the show took to X shared their opinions regarding the fight that transpired between the both of them.

X user Jabulani Macdonald commented, “Notice how he is impressed about Vuyokazi and Tirelo fighting over him …Those girls made themselves clowns in front of him. He was laughing about it”.
