Not sure about this as it is highly irritating to have someone jumping around you pretend to 'box' and he could have poked her by accident. She was in a car accident recently and could be tender there. Some could say she had a right to complain even though he was obviously not deliberately trying to hurt her.

The asking for him to be removed from the house (if she did that) and claims that he'd 'beaten her up' were a complete overreaction of though.

won't hold my breath for the threads calling hardeep a cunt or a bitch or saying he dressed too young for his age. I won't hold my breath for the threads talking about dan.

They haven't behaved like cunts. So therefore have not been called cunts. It's quite simple really.

Certain posters needs to wind their necks in

Absolutely no poster needs to do that. Everyone is allowed to have say here.

I did think the car crash thing was odd, I was in hospital myself at the time, and the headline in the sidebar was that she nearly died or similar, yet she was discharged the same day with just a bandage on her wristConfused

GabsAlot · 02/09/2018 21:49

shes done it before4 theres only one fact he didnt do anything apart from slightly catch her with his ring which he apologised for

shes a nasty malicious cow

IHaveBrilloHair · 02/09/2018 21:50

From what I've seen Hardeep and Dan have behaved fine in the house, and this is about BB
I know what they've both done, but in the house they've been fine.
Roxanne has not.

birdsdestiny · 02/09/2018 21:50

Hardeep is in CBB because he was suspended for sexually harrassing people he worked with. Dans behaviour includes threats against his partner.

GabsAlot · 02/09/2018 21:59

whatever their storms for being in there theyve been finein th house

roxanne has not

and nor has jermaine but thats another story

Whilst I'm not justifying her behaviour at all, I do find it quite sad to read so much abuse and name calling across the internet and social media. Personally, I am a firm believer that there are always reasons why people behave the way they do, be that because of genetics , how their life experiences have personally influenced and affected them or because of things such as mental health or personality disorders.

If RP has a history of behaving as badly as people are starting to say she has, then I think she sounds like quite a messed up person and I doubt she has lived a very happy life or gotten to experience relationships in a healthy and fulfilling way. Therefore, I actually have a degree of sympathy for her.

Of course, I also feel sorry for RT and what he has been put through and to reiterate, I am not excusing what she has done. However, whilst I think it is fine to judge her actions, I don't agree with personal attacks and abuse when no one really knows what complex reasons might be behind her actions and personality.

IHaveBrilloHair · 02/09/2018 22:08

I believe some people are just not very nice, and I think she is one of those people.

TomHardyswife · 02/09/2018 22:10

What turned my stomach was the conversation she had in the garden with Dan, Ben and Jermaine saying "the only thing I would like you to do is to believe me as everything that Ryan will tell you will be lies"

And when she had all the lads believing her, she was using words like "woman beater" and "Ryan was violent towards me" and trying to get him thrown out..she actually said she didn't feel safe around him.
Hence the second trip to the diary room asking for production to throw him out yet again.

But when the tables turned and people were questioning her, she changed tack to "well that's what it felt like" all in a meek voice.

It's sad that if BB hadn't dropped some major hints to Dan in the diary room to basically let him know that truth, then the rest of the housemates (except sally perhaps) would continue to believe her lies.

I still feel shocked that Ryan received the formal warning from BB.

Sibsmum · 02/09/2018 22:16

Think she is mentally unwell. Hope she gets help.
I hope Ryan knows he is vindicated .

I've finally got round to watching last nights.

Poor bloke Sad

gluteustothemaximus · 02/09/2018 22:24

From the start, I said she wasn't quite 'right' (to DH). I said that she was acting the entire time, and that it was like reality to her, being in a soap. But in real life.

Either way, she needs help. Her reality is distorted. If you can claim that someone repeatedly punched you, when cameras are all around, then your head is not in a normal place.

  • She immediately said 'woman beater' when Ryan barely touched her
  • She joked about not doing his washing
  • She went into the bedroom holding the WRONG side, saying it hurt
  • She referred to Ryan as his soap character, and that she'd been beaten up
  • She asked Big Brother to request to see her in the diary room, instead of just going by herself
  • She then explained to Big Brother she had been beaten up like a boxer hits a punch bag

It goes on obviously.

What she has done has MASSIVELY undermined real victims of abuse. Victims that are used as a punch bag.

Woman's Aid tweeted and were saying play fighting could be a trigger for her. That's all well and good. I have triggers. I get it. But never have I twisted reality to say that someone playfighting with me actually punched me/was violent/beat me up.

Again, she needs help.

LyndorCake · 02/09/2018 22:28

Did they show the housemate the footage? I know loads of people have called for them to do it including rylan.

I actually can't believe this. I'm utterly appalled and disgusted by her.

rainbowsandsmiles · 02/09/2018 22:29

I don’t think Ryan Thomas is perfect. But the sheer volume of support from his co-workers, past and present, on social media is interesting

That's what I thought. Emmerdale co-stars unanimous in their tweets with #karma etc, and backing him (Coronation Street) instead of their own. Everyone saying he's a decent bloke. Whatever they've been on, whoever they are, loads of support for him, barely any for her (seriously, you'd struggle to find much, if any, support for her.)
People coming out and saying she's done the same type of thing to them. From public interactions to celebs who have worked with her.

rainbowsandsmiles · 02/09/2018 22:36

Yeah, I get that, I do. Life experiences can define how you will react to certain circumstances, mental health is complex.
However, you can't just seemingly set out to destroy someone else because of your own demons - that's giving a free pass to anyone to do whatever the hell they like. There has to be consequences.

DigsysDiner · 02/09/2018 22:40

If he had actually punched her would the bloke have had excuses made ? Hmm

I think he's been extremely gracious considering. And she's finally shot herself in the foot.

IHaveBrilloHair · 02/09/2018 22:41

Yes gluteus.
If she was really triggered, she'd have said that, at least in the diary room, and she certainly wouldn't have said how much pain she was in.

ToftyAC · 02/09/2018 22:47

Can’t believe anyone watches it TBH

GabsAlot · 02/09/2018 22:48

bolocks to triggers i cant believe womens aid are defending her its abhorrent

she didnt just say wow that reminded me of so and so and how upset it made her-no she decided to t5ry and dest5roy someone else for a paqst grievance that had nothing to do with it

GabsAlot · 02/09/2018 22:49

shes apprently doing an interview with emma willis aswell as jeremy vine tomorrow

shes going to milk this for all its worth

rainbowsandsmiles · 02/09/2018 22:52

If she was so triggered by play boxing, what was she doing in the garden play boxing with another Big Brother contestant?

rainbowsandsmiles · 02/09/2018 22:54

Is the Jeremy Vine interview on The Wright Stuff? Just asking as I usually watch that but I certainly won't be tomorrow if she's on it.
Or is it a radio thing or something?

rainbowsandsmiles · 02/09/2018 22:57

Can’t believe anyone watches it TBH

I usually watch CBB as I love people watching, and it shows the real person behind the celebrity. Hard to keep up a persona with cameras on you 24/7.

Allthatsnot · 02/09/2018 22:59

The backlash against her from fellow celebs and co-stars is incredible.
She appears narcissistic enough to think she could convince everyone that this actually happened.
She would have eliminated competition, gained a sympathy vote and paid him back for any feud they allegedly had all in one go.
