In the comments, several social media users criticised Que for smiling at The Don’s pain. Others slammed The Don for overreacting.
Here are some of the comments:
@jane_nonye predicted:
“And he is even smiling lol after all this, he won’t even see top 5, I mean Que🥹”
@LetsoaloRant asked:
“This kid likes to overreact. When one person is evicted, it's one step closer to R2 million. What's he crying for?”
@YolandaSiv42137 argued:
“If it wasn’t for Didi, who provoked Que, then they wouldn’t be in this situation. Que would not have responded that way he did, and Neliswa would not have intervened. Another thing she chose to react with violence, whereas she could’ve used her words, but unfortunately, she didn’t.”
@ray_vhala asked:
“Does he know that the language he's using isn't allowed there in Biggie's house? He will now do something foolish and get himself disqualified, too. This is a competition here, not a place for mjolo.”
@MsKayG33 questioned:
“So, the victim of abuse is a terrible man? Is this how you think every day? Victim blaming?”
The Don's team releases statement after Neliswa's disqualification
Meanwhile, The Don’s team released a statement on Sunday addressing his emotional reaction and the use of strong language to insult Que. The team justified The Don’s reaction, saying that it was about principle.
On the use of strong language, the team said it was a result of emotions and emphasised that The Don is against violence against women.
“We acknowledge that strong emotions can sometimes lead to strong language, but the heart of the matter remains important. The Don will always stand firmly against GBV and in support of victims and survivors,” part of the statement reads.

Fans react to The Don's statement
In the comments, social media users slammed The Don’s team for taking sides and not acknowledging that Que was a victim of GBV after being assaulted by Neliswa.
Here are some of the comments:
nqobile_nontombana criticised:
“Performative and selective activism is not activism.”
ndeshi_hafela said:
“The problem with Don is that he hotspotted Neliswa's ranting and ran with it. 😮”
maela.lethabo asked:
“The part where you apologise to Que's mom and grandma? Was that not against women? Or is the Don allowed to be selective, for whatever reason? Is it ok for him to swear at people who said and did nothing wrong, people who didn't sign up for the Big Brother house?”
sentle_robs gushed:
“Thank you for standing against GBV, The Don. We need more men like you in this country 🙌❤️”

Meanwhile, Briefly News spoke to clinical psychologist Michele Naude, who shared ways in which communities respond constructively after gender-based violence instead of turning to blame or moral judgment.
She shared that communities must work together to fight gender-based violence healthily and constructively. Naude said the first step is for a community to clearly and strongly agree that gender-based violence is wrong and unacceptable.
She pointed out that blaming people or turning them into scapegoats only creates division and conflict and doesn’t solve the problem. Naude suggested that instead of pointing fingers, people should focus on working together to find real solutions.
