Kelly Khumalo – “I’m done with broke and unhealed men”

Kelly Khumalo says she’s done dating men without money or vision

Singer and reality TV star Kelly Khumalo has made it clear that she is no longer entertaining relationships with men who lack financial stability, spiritual grounding, or emotional healing.

During her recent appearance on L-Tido’s podcast, the award-winning artist spoke candidly about the standards she now holds when it comes to love and partnership.

“If you’re not spiritually aligned, I don’t want you. If you’re not financially stable, I don’t have time for you. If you have not healed your childhood traumas, I do not have time for you,” Kelly said firmly.

Discussing the role of money in relationships, she explained that she’s reached a point in her life where dating for fun is no longer an option.

“I’m at the point where I would never compromise being with a guy just for kicks. I’m speaking from a place of understanding. It is highly frustrating to be in a relationship with a man who has no vision, who is not even planning to be anywhere, and who is also broke. A broke man will make you broke, a broken man will break you,” she said.

Reflecting on her past, Kelly admitted that her previous relationships often mirrored her own unhealed experiences.

“I was dating from a broken place. When you date from a place of not understanding yourself, you tend to pick from a place of trauma and brokenness, not from a healed version,” she added.
