From TV Reality to Global Stage
When fans first met Ashley Ogle on the reality-TV show Big Brother Mzansi, she was the promising newcomer who won hearts while navigating the house. Fast forward to 2025, and she has added a new milestone to her story: taking home the Brand Impact Award at the Chery Global Summit in Wuhu, China.
A Win That Reflects Her Rise
In a social media post on 21 October 2025, she broke the news to her supporters, affectionately known as the Ashes and Ash Angels. She thanked her fans and invoked faith and perseverance: “It can only be God, Ashes and Ash angels… May we never be so tired that we give up, because it is within our breaking that we learn how to build.” The message prompted a wave of congratulatory responses from across South Africa.
Why This Matters in the Brand World
The Brand Impact Award recognised her work for Chery South Africa, which elevated her from the local influencer scene to the global brand ambassador stage. Her partnership with Chery, especially around the launch of the Tiggo Cross Hybrid, positioned her in a space where lifestyle, tech, and influence converge—something increasingly common among South African digital personalities.
Social Media Buzz and National Pride
The Instagram announcement lit up timelines. Comments ranged from “Extremely proud of you, Ash” to “God’s timing is perfect.” Fans lauded her authenticity, her work ethic, and the fact that a South African influencer was being celebrated abroad. On X (formerly Twitter) and Facebook, hashtags like #AshleyOgleInChina and #GlobalAshleyOgle began trending among support communities.

A Broader View on Influence and Opportunity
South Africa is no stranger to global talent being recognised overseas. What Ashley’s win underscores is how local reality stars and digital creators can now transition into international brand partnerships. It also signals how influencers from our shores are viewed not just within Mzansi, but as global players.
What’s Next for Ashley Ogle
With this award under her belt, Ashley’s profile looks ready for even bigger collaborations and perhaps more international exposure. For her Ashes and Ash Angels, the message is clear: this is not just a win for her but a moment of collective pride—for one of their own representing Mzansi on the world stage.
