Controversial X personality Chris Excel has waded into the Limpopo Boy scandal, throwing his full support behind the dancer while directing sharp criticism at married influencer Matshidiso Shai.

The leaked footage of the two has been making rounds on social media, and Chris Excel did not hold back in sharing where he thinks the blame should fall. Writing to his followers on X, he posted:

"We stand with our brother Limpopo boy in these difficult times. He is not married … the one who's guilty is a married one! That girl is guilty!"
