South African reality TV star Ashley Ogle sure does have a very loyal fanbase on social media. The influencer stunned many people after she received a large sum of money in donations from her followers.

SA outraged by Ashley receiving R100K

Shortly after it was announced that the star received R100K from her fans, many online users weren't impressed by this, as they didn't quite understand why she was receiving such a huge amount when other people need the money. Here's what they have to say below:

@water_gift said:

"But when fellow students ask for donations for the registration fee, you guys are nowhere to be seen."

@Pearlyi_n_ stated:

"This is weird, so much money, and she was the worst housemate ever. This is obviously mental illness."

@MoreTwoLyf commented:

"Mshefane, a person who actually needs help, is right there, mind you. Instead of raising funds to support less fortunate kids to go to school, you do this. Sorry, but Big Brother fans are insane."

@chosenwani responded:

"You guys are probably going to donate over a million when she reveals her baby to you... She and Zee are living soft through their supporters."

Zee Mofokeng also received R100K from her fans

In January 2025, the former Big Brother Mzansi star Zintle "Zee" Mofokeng also received a large sum of money from her fans, just like Ashley Ogle did.
