While some viewers commended Marie-Claire for her vibrant energy and embracing life, others felt that her behaviour was not the best given the relatively short time since her husband's tragic death. These individuals believed that she should have shown more restraint and respect for the memory of her late husband, as per Ghanaian cultural norms.

Critics argued that Marie-Claire's conduct seemed disrespectful, especially since Ghanaian customs encourage a more subdued expression of grief and mourning. This sentiment was shared on various social media platforms, where numerous comments criticised her actions.

However, there were those who defended Marie-Claire, pointing out that cultural differences should be considered when evaluating her behaviour. They emphasised that Marie-Claire's background and upbringing may have influenced her more lively and celebratory approach to life, even in the face of tragedy.
