The emotional visit marks a significant milestone in her journey of remembrance and mourning. Together they have a son Hlelolenkosi ‘sponge’ Maphumulo.

The couple got engaged in October 2020, announcing the news with a video on social media of Mampintsha going down on one knee with a ring in his hand.

They celebrated their traditional wedding in 2021, as reported by Timeslive.
