One thing about Yolanda Gumbi, she will vent on social media when something is bothering her. On Thursday, 12 March, the good sis publicly called out her ex-husband, Mpilo Mdletshe, over an array of issues, including not providing child maintenance for their son.

SOMK IS PROVIDING FOR YOLANDA AND MPILO’S SON

In a video posted by blogger Musa Khawula on X, Yolanda shared some jaw-dropping details about the realities of raising her son.

She mentioned that her father, Lucky “SomK” Gumbi, is the one actually taking care of her son since Mpilo is not fulfilling his responsibilities as a father.

Yollie Gumbi reveals that her good-for-nothing deadbeat husband Mpilo Mdletshe is refusing to handback her belongings including her textbooks.

An Instagram user sent a private message to Yolanda, stating that it seems irresponsibility runs within the Mdletshe family, because she is also going through the same with Mpilo’s brother.

The young mother also revealed that when she arrived at Mpilo’s apartment, she discovered that someone else was living there now. The purpose of visiting his apartment was to fetch her clothes and textbooks, since there are rumours that she’s going back to school.

A TUMULTUOUS END TO YOLANDA AND MPILO’S MARRIAGE

Yolanda and Mpilo’s divorce was far from amicable, as the pair dragged each other on social media. Based on the new bombshells from Yolanda about her ex-husband, it seems that their drama is far from over.
