One of her fans have posted a message that reads: Absolutely DISGUSTING! Caroline Jurie it is not your place to behave like this! There was a better way to handle this situation and behave in such a manner and humiliate her like that. Pushpika plays the role of mother and father to her son! You should have handled this in a better way. Absolute 3rd class! And chula absolutely wrong how you behaved on stage! Pushpika De Silva I hope you sue them for defamation. You deserved the crown and this is absolutely horrible. You walking away showed grace. The decision should have been made by the main organization and not by you or anyone. You received the title to uplift woman and people not to bring down another woman and bring her shame in public! If there was an issue this could have been dealt with decency and respect. Not shaming a woman for being a single mother.
Another fan said: Women power and feminism isn’t bringing down and humiliating one woman to uplift another. So many better ways to have handled this.
