The Queen: Vuyiswa’s traumatic experience hits home with viewers

This week’s episodes of The Queen resonated with a lot of viewers who have had to deal with the traumatic experience of sexual assault.

By Xabiso Ngqabe

What was meant to be a night out with the girls turns devastating for Vuyiswa.

Vuyiswa is left vulnerable and alone

Tembisa police station was filled with joy after Vuyiswa is given a recognition award for the highest number of cases solved. She and Georgina decide to celebrate at The Corner House. Unfortunately, the happy night soon turns into a nightmare …

Oh Vuyiswa bethuna. 😭💔#TheQueenMzansi

When she wasn’t looking, someone spiked Vuyiswa’s drink. She manages to get herself home but it is evident that someone followed her and while she’s passed out, the intruder sexually assaults her.

Triggers everywhere

It’s a sad fact that many viewers relate to what Vuyiswa is going through, and were triggered by the heartbreaking scenes as Vuyiswa tries to process the ordeal that she’s gone through.

That Vuyiswa scene triggered my feelings 😭💔 #TheQueenMzansi

Where were Thato and Jackal?

Thato is still heartbroken about Mpho and Schumacher’s new relationship and his father, Jackal, insists they go on a weekend trip, leaving Vuyiswa alone at home.

Viewers are still in the dark about the identity of the rapist, but the voice sounded to many like the new copy, Eric (portrayed by Sisa Hewana).

Immediately after forcing himself on Vee, his phone rings and the voice of the caller on the other end sounds like Jackal. Could it be that Thato’s father is behind all of this? If so, why?

Im so hurt 😭😭

Guys Jackal? Hes the one on that phonecall right? Yhoo 😭😭😭#TheQueenMzansi

Vuyiswa’s struggle

No matter how much she wants to avoid or forget what happened, the intensity of the nightmare still lingers in her mind. And the more she avoids it, the more she takes it out on those close to her.

Vuyiswa is in pain and nobody knows why. 💔#TheQueenMzansi
