Speaking to TshisaLIVE on how fatherhood changed his life, Mpumelelo revealed that he is now a family man and fatherhood has changed the way he carries himself.

“Becoming a dad changes you, you have to change everything. From the way you carry yourself and the stuff that you usually do. You understand that you are a family man now and that your children are now looking up to you,” he told the publication.

Mpumelelo was also interviewed on The Venting Podcast, and he revealed he had lost babies in the past due to miscarriages.

“I have a small child growing, and now I will get another one. There were others that died through miscarriage,” he said.

Mpumelelo also opened up about his decision to follow in his father Musa’s footsteps by having two girlfriends.

“We have a lot of girlfriends and then there would be one you choose as a woman you could take home to introduce to the family. You can’t just have one girlfriend and make that girl your wife only for that person to betray you. You have to date a lot of women, then choose,” he said.

“I love women. I would be lying if I said my father convinced me into being a polygamist. If I was doing it for my father, I would not be able to continue doing it. I am still going to continue. I won’t say how many women I plan to have, but they are more than my father has,” he added.
