‘My son is not a prop!’ Chelsea hits out at Holy Ten, Kim for exploiting sick child
Holy Ten’s baby mama, Tariro Chelsea Hlomayi has hit out at the rapper and his wife Kimberly Richards of using her son for publicity, after his picture was used as part of the album cover of the wordsmith’s latest album, Proud Father.
The album cover features Holy Ten with his two sons, Mufaro and Mukudzeyi Junior, who were born just eight months apart.
The photos, taken at Skate World in Borrowdale, Harare, show the rapper bonding with his children, a move that won him praise online, as many felt he was showing maturity given that he has not always been on good terms with Mufaro’s mother, Chelsea.
However, in an Instagram post, Chelsea took exception to the behaviour of both Holy Ten and Kim, who she said was now portraying herself as a good person despite also neglecting her son.
“It’s very unfortunate that you would choose to exploit a sick child for content. A child you have neglected since he was born mukazotya kutukwa nevanhu ma poster cover ine mwana one paye mukati can I “borrow” uyo for a few hours tite album cover.
“Even though you knew he was sick at the time I was fine with the album cover being done, thats my child’s inheritance but dzimwe content dzaakubuda idzi Proud Mother my foot,” she posted.
Chelsea said that Kim was now trying to portray herself as the opposite of Daisy Mtukudzi, who has been recently portrayed as a mean-spirited step-mother.
“We’ve never talked, we’ve never met all I know is what you go around telling people kuti chi bastard mwana wangu. This child would rather use my son to boost her image than to actually show up and show love in real life.
“You don’t owe my son anything but using him just for content is way too low chero iko kubhadhara ma blogger kuti vati hausi Daisy is weird man.
“Isusu tiri ma ghetto yuts hapana paticharamba tichiti bhoo muchitibhowa, be a good person in real life all this fakeness just for marketing your image is not okay! My son is not a prop!” she wrote.
In response Holy Ten denied that he had ever abused his son, describing Chelsea’s outburst as noise meant to derail the album rollout.
“It’s really just a little noise that’s trying to (disturb) the album. I feel like we should all be adults and ignore this stuff,” Holy Ten said.
