Big Brother Mzansi’s Sweet Guluva and Ashley Ogle choose to keep their romance private

Big Brother Mzansi’s Sweet Guluva and Ashley Ogle choose to keep their romance private! After capturing the hearts of many fans with their on-screen romance during Big Brother Mzansi season 5, winner Sweet Guluva and fellow contestant Ashley Ogle have announced that they will be taking their relationship out of the public eye.

The couple, who quickly became one of the most talked-about pairs on social media, revealed their decision during a TikTok Live session and in Ashley’s appearance on the Engineer Your Life podcast.

“Yes, We’re Together—But We Want Privacy”

Despite speculation about the status of their relationship, Sweet Guluva and Ashley confirmed that they are indeed still together. However, they emphasized that they want to keep their romance private moving forward.

“We wanted to confirm we are together. We are dating, but we are requesting privacy,” Sweet Guluva told fans during their live session on TikTok.

Ashley further explained the reason behind this choice during her podcast interview, stating that their relationship had started in the public eye, but now they felt the need to shift the focus away from their romance.

“We started our relationship on a social platform, and a lot of people have been very supportive. They loved it. I felt we were obligated to tell people we are going to be private,” she shared.

Focusing on Their Individual Brands

One of the main reasons the couple has decided to keep their relationship private is their career growth. Both Sweet Guluva and Ashley are working on building their personal brands and want to ensure that they are recognized for their individual talents and ventures, rather than just being known as a couple.

“Big Brother is over, and we are individuals. He needs to focus on his brand, and me on mine,” Ashley explained.

The two former housemates have received overwhelming support from fans, with many following their journey both inside and outside the Big Brother house. However, they now feel it’s important to establish themselves separately before putting their relationship back in the spotlight.

“Maybe later we can make it public again,” Ashley added, leaving the door open for a potential public reveal in the future.

Fan Reactions to Their Announcement

The decision to go private has sparked mixed reactions from fans. While many people respect their choice and understand the importance of privacy in a relationship, others have expressed disappointment, as they had been deeply invested in their love story since the reality show.

Social media has been flooded with comments, with some fans showing support and others hoping they will continue to share glimpses of their relationship.

“We totally understand! Focus on your brands and protect your love!” one supporter commented.

“We’ll miss the updates, but we respect your decision,” another fan wrote.

However, there are also skeptics who believe that going private might be a sign of trouble in the relationship. Some fans are speculating that something may have happened behind the scenes, leading the couple to step away from public scrutiny.

The Pressure of a Public Relationship

Being in the public eye can add immense pressure to a relationship, especially for reality TV stars whose love stories unfold in front of millions.

Many past Big Brother Mzansi couples have struggled with the challenges of maintaining a relationship after the show ends, particularly with the added scrutiny from fans and the media.

By making the decision to step back from public displays of affection and focus on themselves as individuals, Sweet Guluva and Ashley are prioritizing their personal growth and the health of their relationship.

What’s Next for Sweet Guluva and Ashley?

With both reality stars aiming to establish themselves in their respective fields, fans can expect to see more of their individual projects in the coming months.

Sweet Guluva, as the winner of Big Brother Mzansi season 5, has multiple career opportunities ahead of him, while Ashley is also working on building her brand and business ventures.

While their relationship may no longer be in the spotlight, their journeys are far from over, and fans will be eagerly watching what they do next.

For now, though, the couple is asking for privacy and understanding—proving that sometimes, the best relationships are the ones nurtured away from public eyes.
