Tweeps are once again weighing in on DJ Zinhle’s grief over the death of slain musician Kiernan “AKA” Forbes, the father of her first daughter, Kairo.
After the Last Time rapper was assassinated on February 10 in Durban, the Umlilio hitmaker was chastised for mourning him. Zihle went to the memorial service a week later and the funeral on February 18. She has also paid tribute to AKA and asked fans to keep praying for their daughter.
Some Twitter users believe the businesswoman’s decision to mourn is inappropriate because she is married. The mother of two is married to former Black Motion member Morda (formerly Murdah Bongz), with whom she has one daughter named Asante.
On Tuesday, 28 February, Zinhle took to her Instagram stories to share that her accessories brand Era by DJ Zinhle turned 11 years old; adding that it also marks 11 years of knowing AKA.
While Zinhle’s fans have expressed they understand that she is showing support to Kairo, others feel she is doing a little too much.
“Is she still mourning or that’s part of co-parenting🤔 I need myself [sic] an understanding husband like Bongz,” @tumi_kennatumi asked.
“Zinhle is not the first person to lose an ex that they had a child with. However, I’ve never seen a married person mourn an ex in this manner. ‘We mourn differently’ seem to only apply when folks are doing weird and messy things on social media chasing clout,” said @chrisexcel102_.
“Dj Zinhle is definitely disrespecting Bongz as her husband, also Nadia as well …. This is not about Kairo anymore … AKA choose [sic] other Women over her while he was still alive.. she must rest now. Shuu!!! Madness,” @african_lucas wrote.
@mthoko_nhlapho said: “Dj Zinhle is slowly turning Murda Bongz into Will Smith.” This comment is based on a social media narrative that although Will and Jada Pinkett Smith are married, her late close friend and rapper, Tupac, was the love of my life.
