The post left many feeling truly sad for Kairo who had a loving relationship with her father. Many of them sharing kind words with both the mother and child.

Others however slammed Zinhle for taking a video of the touching moment and accused her of chasing clout.

“I’m just imagining this!! The child started crying, tells mom she misses her dad, and mom quickly sets up a video or asks someone to take a video then started comforting her child. Hey akunzima,” one person said while another wrote:
