The duo have since faced a backlash from fans who have accused them of glossing over Dejon’s flirty behaviour with bombshells in the villa and “enabling” the curt way he has spoken to some of the girls like Billykiss and Yasmin.
On one occasion Dejon bluntly told Billykiss that she was after 15 minutes of fame by commenting on his relationship with Meg.
He rudely rated Yas’s kissing skills zero out of 10 during a challenge and didn’t like it when she claimed he was acting up just to keep partner Meg happy.
While on another occasion he refused to speak with Yas when she politely asked him for a conversation.
Gene insisted she gave Dejon a dressing-down during her visit and called out his more controversial moments, however none of it made the cut.
Speaking on TikTok, she said: “Me and mum, literally straight away, went in on him. I grilled him for five minutes straight and they didn’t show any of it. Not even a single second. I just think it’s crazy what they actually choose to put in the show.”
She continued: “I told him about himself ‘the way you handle situations sometimes you should handle in a better way’… I told him there’s a lot of things you have to change when you come out of the villa.
“So many things in that conversation were spoken about and they showed 10 seconds of the conversation. We grilled him so much.”
She finished by saying that while people can believe what they want to believe, she is “not an enabler” and will tell her brother and her siblings how she really feels.
There was a giveaway clue that Dejon had been on the receiving end of some home truths in the episode when he told his family: “You lot just come in to cook me or what?”
Viewers of Gene’s video seemed to back her version of events, with one commenting: “Tbh I believe her. I actually noticed when Shakira was having a conversation with her mum about Harry how choppy the editing felt. If you go back and watch it’s very obvious at times that they cut away from her mum talking mid-sentence.”
Another said: “Fair enough! I’ll give her the benefit of the doubt – his mum still didn’t need to add that bit about apologising to Yasmin.”
A third said: “It’s not that his family didn’t say things that excused his behaviour because they did, we heard that, but I do believe they grilled him too. Dejon seemed quite shaken after. They don’t always show that balance though, because it’s not as entertaining.”
