GOSPEL music diva Fungisai Zvakavapano-Mashavave is now a mother for third time!<\/p>\n

This came to light after reports that she failed to turn up for a show in South Africa at the weekend.<\/p>\n

Unnamed sources said the sultry voiced singer gave birth a day before her scheduled trip to South Africa leading to in the cancellation of her concert.<\/p>\n

Fungisai and her husband- cum-manager Courage Mashavave now have three children – Tawananyasha (five), two-year-old girl Matipanyasha also known as Nysa and the latest arrival.<\/p>\n

Speculation had been rife as to when the diva would give birth after she performed at the 21st Movement Gala at the National Sports Stadium in February.<\/p>\n

Fungisai put up a flawless act despite her pregnancy and left many wondering when she was due.<\/p>\n

Now, it seems the long wait is finally over.<\/p>\n

According to one Zimbabwean fan based in South Africa, Fungisai was supposed to perform at a concert in that country but could not make it after she delivered a bouncing baby.<\/p>\n

“I am a Zimbabwean citizen residing in South Africa and I am bitter about what happened to us last weekend.<\/p>\n

“We saw a gospel show advertised here featuring Zimbabwean diva Fungisai and bought tickets for R120.<\/p>\n

“On the morning of the show news went round South Africa that she was no longer coming because she had given birth a day before,” the fan who spoke on condition of anonymity said.<\/p>\n

Efforts to seek a comment from Fungisai proved fruitless as her mobile phone went unanswered at the time of going to print.<\/p>\n

Her husband was said to be out of office when the Herald paid him a visit.<\/p>\n

The fan went on: “Could it be true that she was ever meant to come here or it’s one of those tsotsis trying to make money from us?<\/p>\n

“The confusing thing is that she wrote on her Facebook page that she was coming here a month before the date of the show.<\/p>\n

“If it’s true then how could they have signed a contract when they knew she was pregnant (and) wouldn’t make it? Or was it a marketing strategy between the promoter and her managers?”<\/p>\n

Fungisai is one of the country’s most popular female gospel musicians with a string of hit albums to her name.<\/p>\n

She recently launched her album, “Highway” while others like “Chandisimudza” and “Toita Zvedenga” among others, are part of her catalogue.<\/p>\n
