An extremely polarizing character, Dayane was considered the villainess of the season and was the cause for most of the main house conflicts and dynamics, especially towards the end.
She was either loved or hated by the public: some thought the inconsistency in her attitude and decisions made her unbearable, while others were fascinated by her difficult life story and deemed her the most prominent character of the season.
Starting the game as an under-the-radar personality, Dayane started to become a fan favorite after her conflict with Francesco Oppini, which caused her to isolate from most of the housemates and find shelter in the friendship with Rosalinda Cannavò. The two women were extremely close, to the point where Dayane revealed she had felt love for her.
Their relationship, however, became more and more rocky as time passed: as Rosalinda got close to housemates Tommaso Zorzi and Stefania Orlando, who Dayane was not in a good relationship with, the latter decided to develop friendships with the newer entries of the House like Samantha de Grenet.
In a pivotal move of the season, Dayane decided to send long-time friend Rosalinda in a public vote against Stefania, in order to protect Samantha. The decision was extremely controversial and Rosalinda ended up being eliminated.
Reaching the finale thanks to the support of her dedicated fanbase, Dayane chose to challenge Pierpaolo Pretelli in the Final 4 public vote duel, and was surprisingly eliminated, finishing in 4th Place.
Her treatment by both the housemates and the show itself was a topic of discussion in Brazil, Dayane's home country, and a Brazilian audience started to support Dayane more and more both on social media and in the public votes, ultimately falling short in the finale.
