Corpse War Breaks Out As Amwene Accuses Muroora Saying You Were Not Married At All, Kaycie’s Body, His Wealth Are MineMeanwhile, logistical issues also compounded the delay. A message from a relative said the funeral directors needed final confirmations, including a signed estimate by a Thursday deadline, in order to proceed with a scheduled Friday the 4th of July burial. Due to the confusion and interference, the funeral parlour has since demanded full payment for continued storage—now totalling £11,065 for over eight weeks.

■ Rumours, Threats, and Postmortem Claims
What has further complicated the case are wild accusations made by some relatives, including Kumbirai Chipadza, KC’s brother. In several messages, Kumbirai engages in heated exchanges, at one point threatening that “the truth will come out” in what some interpret as an attempt to intimidate Beverly.
There are also unsubstantiated rumours circulated online and within the family alleging that KC was murdered and that Beverly had tampered with his body. However, reliable sources have confirmed that the body was only handled for toxicology and postmortem examinations in line with standard Coroners office procedures when a person suddenly dies who was otherwise seen and deemed healthy-and not for any nefarious reasons.

■ The Legal Irony
In a twist of irony, while Privatus Law argues that unmarried partners lack legal standing, their entire legal challenge hinges on excluding a legally married spouse from her rightful role as next of kin. Beverley was married to KC both traditionally and legally.
According to UK law under the Non-Contentious Probate Rules 1987, if a person dies intestate, the estate is managed in the following hierarchy:
Since Beverly is KC’s legal spouse, she outranks the mother, siblings, or other relatives. Also from a recent hospital attendance in March 2025, KC in his own writing stated that Beverly Hanyani was his next of kin
Privatus’ own argument falsely states that “no spouse exists” and relies on the assumption that there is no marriage certificate. However, all evidence reviewed confirms the contrary.10 July 2025, Ms Glory Chipadza, the deceased’s mother, through her solicitor at Privatus Law, served Beverly with a Pre-Action Protocol Letter demanding she stop all funeral arrangements. The letter accused Beverly of falsely claiming to be next of kin, despite being KC’s wife and mother of his eldest children. It insisted that because the couple was not married at the time of death, she had no legal right to direct the burial.
“You were not married to the deceased at the time of his death and have no automatic legal entitlement to act as next of kin,” wrote Sampson.
“You have acted unilaterally… Presented yourself as ‘next of kin’ to Walton & Taylor without legal authority.”
But these claims contradict reality. Multiple messages and forwarded communications reveal that Beverly does have a marriage certificate and that the UK coroner’s office formally recognised her as the legal spouse, granting her custody of KC’s body.

■ WhatsApp Evidence Paints a Different Picture
In WhatsApp messages reviewed by this publication, a clearer narrative emerges—one where Beverly is actively trying to organise the burial, only to be obstructed by members of the Chipadza family who are pushing for KC’s mother to be declared next of kin.
“They paid 6000 for KC funeral then they went and took their money back because the mother wanted to be next of kin,” reads one forwarded message.
“But now we have paid £11065… she [the mother] went and told the council that Bev is lying…So that’s what’s stopping the burial.”
Another message notes that the mother and her representatives even wrote to the Zimbabwean embassy alleging that Beverly was refusing to release the body—a claim the coroner’s office itself invalidated by releasing the body to Beverly on the basis of her legal status as wife and mother.

■ KC Wanted to Be Buried in Zimbabwe
The conflict is not just legal—it’s also cultural. Beverly has consistently maintained that KC had expressed his wish to be buried in Zimbabwe, not the UK, where his mother now insists he must be laid to rest. Family members admit in group Mrs Chipadza was contacted for comment and she was still to respond at the time of writing. An emergency meeting was still in motion on Sunday afternoon called for by the Zimbabwe embassy in London to resolve the impasse.
As of now, no burial date is confirmed. And while accusations continue to fly, the real issue may be this: Is this about love for the deceased, or a power struggle over control, culture, and grief?
