Kelly Khumalo has seemingly broke off her longtime friendship with her bestie Wanda Baloyi.

In the final episodes of Showmax's Life With Kelly Khumalo where she reconciles with singer, Zandie and meets her nephew for the first time, Kelly also allowed fans into her “friendship troubles” with Wanda.

Though fans are given details of how the cracks in the friendship started, they got to see Kelly and Wanda attempt to address their unresolved issues. However, instead of reconciling Kelly decides to end Season 3 vowing that she wants nothing to do with her friend. 

“I’m very mad at Wanda, and I don’t want to see her at this point,” says Kelly, expressing her lack of interest in nurturing any friendships from now on.

“Friends actually exhaust me. They are a lot of work, especially when everything is about them,” says Kelly.

“Wanda can f*ck off. I never want to hear about her again. Even my clothes that I left in her house, I don't want them she can burn them. I want nothing to do with her.”

This is not the first time that Kelly has had a fallout with her friends.

While she might have a friendship tattoo with Thami and Wanda that reads 'Always and Forever', throughout the seasons of her reality show, fans have witnessed her friendship with previous bestie Thami Dish and gospel star Brenda Mtambo come to an end. 

Kelly has admitted that it did concern her to see people she was friends with for a long time exit her life.

“The reality of losing friends as you grow older is a tough one. Maybe I'm also the problem because I mean, we keep losing the same friends ... Thami, now it's Brenda ... I don't know, a part of me is concerned.”
