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.

@tistheseason17 and how do you know said incident with Ryan and the dress actually happened as she said? Many people who know her and have worked with her have come out and said she's a liar and not a nice person.

TwistedStitch · 02/09/2018 19:23

Tbh whatever Ryan may or may not have done in the past is irrelevant here anyway, unless only saints can be falsely accused of something. The fact is she completely lied about an assault, and it was caught on camera. Ryan possibly being a shit partner 5+ years ago has nothing to do with it.

TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross · 02/09/2018 19:23

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. Men and women, not just blokes having each other’s back.

And I’m sorry, but relationships break up all the time and when they do, surely there’s always an element of “you don’t do it for me any more”. I hardly think that makes him the world’s greatest villain.

And the irony of using that dress story as reason to condemn him in the same post that you tell us not to believe everything we see in BB! 😂

GreenTulips · 02/09/2018 19:26

Well we saw the clip
We saw her reaction
We saw the tears
We heard her lie

BB didn't intervine - they will have lawyers to advise I'm sure.

He wouldn't have been convicted f assault by that video

TwistedStitch · 02/09/2018 19:27

Yes even his girlfriend's exes are tweeting in support of him and saying he's a decent bloke. His daughter did a video message for him earlier and he said in the house the other day that his daughter's mum and stepdad 'have his back.' I think people are scraping the barrel a bit trying to think of ways for him to be the villain here.

@Dentie @BitchQueen90

Everybody else does, why can't I? Grin

BitchQueen90 · 02/09/2018 19:35

To be honest I'm not keen on Ryan, I actually think he fancies himself a bit and that's off putting but nobody deserves to be labelled a "woman beater" when they're not.

I also know somebody who has been on BB and I'm aware that sometimes situations can be manipulated but she has told bare faced lies.

If so many people who know her personally have said she's a nasty person - numerous co stars, people who knew her at school (even the bloke who played her husband on Emmerdale has described her as "evil") - that's not just going to come out of nowhere.

TomHardysNextWife · 02/09/2018 19:46

Her name is better known today than it has ever been. She's a barely known ex-soap actress, let's not forget. She's achieved far more publicity in the last 3/4 days than she's had in the last 10 years. Her exclusive "I am a misunderstood victim" to one of the Red Top papers will earn her more than she's earned in the last 10 years too. She's given the show massive publicity, and C5 must be loving the headlines. Everyone comes out a winner - even Ryan, who will now surely win and also get massive coverage on his exit.

I can't help but feel we've all been played to a degree..........

IHaveBrilloHair · 02/09/2018 19:52

Ryan dumped his wife and baby?
I'm fairly sure he's never been married and his only child has publicly supported him, and given her age that would be arranged by her Mum, Ryan's ex Confused

rainbowsandsmiles · 02/09/2018 19:55

Everyone comes out a winner..
I can't help but feel we've all been played to a degree..........

Nah, if you were on twitter and seen the sheer VOLUME of stars coming out and saying their piece on her, other alleged victims saying she's done the same to them, and the fact she's been caught out..... there's no way she's coming out a winner on this. I can't see anyone wanting to work with her at all after this.

ManicUnicorn · 02/09/2018 20:08

Ryan's never been married, he has a daughter with Tina O'Brian but they were never married and are on good terms. He even attended her wedding.

Ive watched Big Brother since the first series on Channel Four, and was an avid live feed watched back in the day . I'm perfectly aware that it's edited and lots of stuff gets missed out, thank you very much. However we saw what happened, it even happened in front of the other housemates. He'd have been thrown out in the blink of an eye if he'd had been violent in any shape or form, people have been removed for aggressive behaviour several times over the years.

Certain posters needs to wind their necks in and stop projecting their own issues onto what's happened with Ryan and Roxanne, especially when they quite blatantly didn't watch the relevant episode. You might not like Ryan, you don't have to, but if he's an abuser of women then I'm the Queen of England.

Roxanne is the very definition of the word 'cunt' in my opinion. She's apparently quit the Bear Grylls show because the smoke from the campfire 'triggered' memories of her family home burning down ( which I don't think even happened).

birdsdestiny · 02/09/2018 20:12

It's difficult to not project our own issues when people use the word cunt to describe a woman, however she may or may not have behaved.

user1483875094 · 02/09/2018 20:14

Digsy Diner has it right. The thing is, WE SAW what happened, and it WAS just a play "tickle" but the princess, who shows all the symptoms of a very troubled personality, turned it badly into something she could USE, which was so very far from the truth. Yes, she had a car accident, and there was, again, a great deal of excessive drama from her, drama, and guess what? - She left the hospital with ONE SPRAINED WRIST!! She, however, would have the media believe she was seconds from death (by sprained wrist) - so nothing has changed. The film is available for ALL to see, over, and over again. He did not TOUCH HER RIBS, he basically "patted her left upper arm" - and she is now screaming ASSUALT - This is disgusting beyond belief, but in fairness, I do believe she is unhinged and needs psychiatric help, and that BB is very much the wrong place for a woman with her personality problems. As such, being allowed in there, to do what she has been doing, she is a very dangerous person indeed.

Zippitydoodar · 02/09/2018 20:15

I agree for BB and Ryan this is excellent publicity but for that Roxanne, and no matter how much money she makes in the coming weeks her career is over, noone will ever want to work with her again. As a pp said she seems very much disliked by everyone who's ever worked with her.

It's not about the what Ryan may or may not have done In the past it's the fact that she lied and manipulated the situation to try and ruin him. The poor lad was genuinely very upset and it was horrible to see.

dentie · 02/09/2018 20:19

Everybody else does, why can't I?

You can. But if you do, it works both ways. Don't tell people not to believe everything they hear/read/see about person X and then proceed to say you heard whatever about person Y.

Makes no sense.

dentie · 02/09/2018 20:21

It's difficult to not project our own issues when people use the word cunt to describe a woman, however she may or may not have behaved.

Is it? I said she was being a cunt. Because she was being a cunt. Having a vagina does not excuse cuntish behaviour.

ManicUnicorn · 02/09/2018 20:25

I'd call a man cunt if he behaved in the same way.

birdsdestiny · 02/09/2018 20:38

Would you? I 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.

ManicUnicorn · 02/09/2018 20:42

Hardeep doesn't dress too young for his age though, and Dan hasn't really done anything in the house. So no, no one is going to start threads about them.

worridmum · 02/09/2018 20:46

People get called dick heads all the time yet your not up in arms about it cunt is the same as calling some a dick head they are both names of sexaully organs.

dustarr73 · 02/09/2018 20:49

Would you? I 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.

At the end of the day this thread is about a woman being caught lying.She said one of the 2 things that ruin people.Being abusive is one and rape is the other.

She wasnt worried about the effect it would have on Ryan.So you get what you deserve.

Plus everyone online says the same thing,they all cat be liars.

MycatiscalkedElvis · 02/09/2018 20:49

Wow!! How refreshing your post is! Too many people in the media would believe that cont! You are spot on!

thismeansnothing · 02/09/2018 21:06

So apparently she's going to be on Jeremy Vine 2mrw morning. That's being set to record. Be interesting to see what she comes out with when he and a panel interview her

Zippitydoodar · 02/09/2018 21:06

What I don't get is why noones ever said what a nasty person she is before? These things normally trickle out and she was in Emmerdale for three years so they kept renewing her contract. Surely if she was that bad they would have sacked her.
I'm not saying I think she's right by the way oh no! She's vile! Maybe she's got worse over the years?

youarenotkiddingme · 02/09/2018 21:19

Yes it's edited.

But they give the time of day each thing happened. So we get a chronological version of events and even when they skip from day to day the clothes they are wearing indicate which bit they are referring too.

And this isn't someone who had people defend her. This is someone who's had a whole host of previous colleagues state that karma was going to bite her in the end.

Eg. Eventually her personality would be revealed and people will know what she's really like and she won't get away with it anymore.

She needs a lot of counselling. I hope she gets it and I hope she reflects and changes.
