Tumi Motsoeneng, also known as Gogo Skhotheni, has stated that she will not pursue a polyandrous marriage unless her husband agrees.
Gogo Skhotheni, who appeared on Moja Love’s Dlozi Lam and Mzansi Magic’s iZangoma Zodumo, ignited a social media outrage when she confessed she had accepted a second spouse after her ancestors advised her to do so.
During her recent sit-down on Nkululeko n Cultr, however, Gogo Skhotheni said while she liked the idea of having more than one partner, her husband did not approve of it.
“It was a fun experience. If my husband would allow me to have a second husband, I think I would. It was fun seeing him get angry because I hardly do anything to my husband. My husband and I have never fought about mjolo (dating); we fight about serious stuff. So seeing him when I approached him about a second husband with him getting angry was a turn-on,” she said.
“It would be a nice experience, but no, there’s no second husband.”
Viewers saw her husband and mother questioning her plan to take on a second husband on the reality show, but she remained resolute.
“I feel like my mom, she felt embarrassed as my mother. She’s not buying it till this day. I’ve never disrespected her in any way, so I think she will understand as time goes on,”
It was difficult for her to adjust to the new dynamics of her relationship, especially since she had never heard of a sangoma pursuing polyandry.
“Nothing like this has ever happened before.” I’ve also never seen a sangoma go through it, so it’s new to me as well, but it’s fine. It’s not without its difficulties, but I’m learning a lot every day.”
While receiving dislike on social media, Gogo Skhotheni stated that, while she recognizes her situation is uncommon, she is eager for the challenge.
