Netizens criticise Nadia Nakai's photo dressed in skimpy outfit: "AKA dodged a bullet here"
"Many couples share snaps of their life and partner on social media, reflecting how they feel about their partner and wanting to share it publicly. When under public scrutiny, something as small as an unfollow can be interpreted as a major issue or statement, resulting in fans and followers speculating and projecting their narratives onto what might be a personal or strategic choice. This external pressure can cause tension between a couple and turn private conflicts into public ones. Social media can place additional emotional pressure on a couple more so than in-person behaviour because it is visible, ca be tracked and left wide open to interpretation."
Fans react to Sweet Guluva and Ashley's rekindled romance
Social media was ablaze with heartfelt messages from fans who celebrated the star's love. Many wished the couple well and hoped they would get married, as Ashley speculated in a previous interview. The star who was evicted first from the reality show revealed that she was planning to tie the knot with Sweet Guluva, real name Akhonamathemba Mbele, after the show.
Here are some reactions from fans:
@TepuL15501 said:
"Ash is just like any other girl. We delete our partners' numbers on silly fights sometimes, but in her case, she needs to mature and not chase clout because too many people are involved. They are celebrities."
@osman_marc84731 commented:
"One thing I don't understand is why people make it such a big deal? Does following end and following on social media define one's relationship? Will that make any difference in the love we have toward each other? A Confused Lover of Love."
@KhadarHannah wrote:
"Yes, so happy for this 👏 💃💃💃💃💃"
@Nandie_Ket04 added:
"They must continue, we are here for them📍Team privacy in the building."
