Former Big Brother Mzansi star Ashley Ogle is at the centre of a brewing scandal after more allegations about her private life surfaced online.

The social media sensation and influencer is facing a wave of backlash from critics who claim her rapid rise to viral fame has negatively impacted her relationship with her family, specifically her mother.

"I sent my daughter to big brother thinking she would showcase her skills and funny personality, and she’s rich and has turned on me and replaced me with rich online moms."

In other posts, those who were part of the stream detailed more shocking claims, where the family's private laundry was aired for thousands to see.

"Ashley Ogle’s mom went live on FB and said a whole lot of things, including that Ashley called them dogs and that another guy she was involved with claims that’s his baby and not SG’s."

In several screen recordings, her mother said Ashley said terrible things about her to her fans and "other mothers":

"It was heartbreaking to hear the things they used to say about me: I'm a lowlife, I'm not worth it."

This follows months of headlines surrounding the birth and paternity of her son, Kenzo, adding yet another layer to the star's ongoing public drama.

Within minutes, the latest controversy sparked a heated debate among fans and critics alike, as the topic shifted from Ashley's professional success to her personal conduct. While loyal supporters argued that family issues are rarely as simple as they look online, critics argued that her rapid rise to fame was what triggered her alleged behaviour.

Social media reacts to Ashley Ogle allegations

Critics argued that Ashley's rise to stardom and army of supporters influenced her alleged behaviour.

Pam829069183938 noted:

"I blame Big Brother fans, sometimes they turn a blind eye when their fave is wrong. Those mothers are supposed to sit down with them."

Lola1235053 added:

"Her fans are making it worse. Those rich aunties should ask themselves one thing: if she can turn on her own family and someone she claimed to love, who are they?"

Meanwhile, supporters defended the star, arguing that the public should not be so quick to judge a situation they only see from the outside.

arishahillz argued:

"Would she have preferred Ashley to be unsuccessful after BBM? I bet she will keep reminding her how useless and unsuccessful she is. People pray to God to show them mercy, favour, and destiny helpers. God favoured Ashley despite her imperfections. Besides, Ashley is 27 years old."
