Manaka, Mpumi, and Dineo Ranaka didn’t talk for a year due to conflict between them.
The siblings didn’t reveal why they were not on talking terms.
However, they’ve reconciled and they briefly talked about the incident to Zimoja.
“We fight and we are not pretentious towards one another,” says Mpumi
“It would have been sad for me to get married, which is something that is happening soon without my sisters being there. So, I am happy that we have reunited,” she added.
Manaka’s mind was muddled with various questions after the three sisters were invited to be guests on Festive Get-Together in the Life Artois: “Firstly, I asked myself, why they would want the three of us; myself, Mpumi and Dineo? What do they know? Do they know besingakhulimisani? (Did they know that we were not on speaking terms) We didn’t know we would go through some healing process that we didn’t ask for,” she admits.
The actress further explained how they reunited at their dad’s 80th birthday.
” We have just started talking slightly after a year of not speaking because of our dad,” Manaka says. “God works in mysterious ways. We were not talking when my dad turned 80. We arrived, ate and at the end of the birthday lunch, we were talking. We didn’t even bicker, as one would expect. At the end of that evening, everyone was in tears, we were talking and bonding. Yes, there are some unresolved issues, but we love each other, after all, we are siblings.”
The sisters didn’t disclose why they were not talking, but being able to reconcile and reunite back as sisters excited them.
