Basetsana, came to the pageant with her husband Romeo Kumalo and their two youngest children. The former beauty queen and TV mogul, has over the years protected her kids from the public. It was only during her book launch a year ago, that she started showing off their faces on social media. On Saturday, she took them with to witness the glitz and glam of the Miss SA pageant, a competition that means a lot to her. Her reasons for doing so was so that they should have a clear idea on what the competition is really about.

“…the reason I decided to take my #Tribe to the @official_misssa pageant last night, was that I wanted them to have a frame of reference of what the stage, the crown, and the title did for their mother and more importantly, the responsibility and duty of the platform that should be used for the greater good to contribute to society???,” Basetsana said.
