AmaZulu King to wed his third wife
2y·
By Limpho Nonkonyane
Another royal wedding is in the works, as AmaZulu King MisuZulu KaZwelithini weds his third wife.
According to ZiMoja, the AmaZulu King and third-born son of the late King Goodwill Zwelithini kaBhekuzulu and Queen Mantfombi Dlamini Zulu will pay lobola for his third wife Nozamo Myeni who hails from the royal family in Jozini. The King also has two other wives, Queen Ntokozo kaMayisela Zulu and Queen Nozizwe Mulela.
A close source told the entertainment publication that although King MisuZulu had paid lobola for his second wife, Queen Nozizwe, he would not proceed with the marriage, adding, that she was allegedly forced by senior royal officials in the Kingdom of eSwatini to marry the King.
As per reports by the above-mentioned source, the pair met at a bank and have been together for the past two years. The entertainment publication states that they had to keep their relationship on the low until it was announced that the AmaZulu King would marry her.
The lobola negotiations are said to be taken place on Sunday where the two families will meet and form a union.
SundayWorld reports that the AmaZulu traditional prime minister Thulasizwe Buthelezi told members of the royal house that,”Your Highnesses, the King has found the beautiful rose in the royal family of Myeni in Jozini. He has instructed me to request all the royal family members to accompany him to pay lobola to the Myenis on 5 May 2024,” adding, “The date of the royal wedding will only be announced after both families had accepted each other as relatives.”
