1st series of bake off he seemed likeable.
Then he got a bit of attention, bit of fame and he turned into a cock. That series with ruby (I think) was positively creepy. I can’t even watch him now.
His ex wife seems lovely, the girlfriend seemed to (on the whole) keep herself out of stuff when they were together, it’s only now Paul’s being a cock she’s fighting back.
Some people are clearly money grabbing but I also think it’s very easy to fall in love when your being treated well, being shown affection with flowers and thoughtful nights out etc. Doesn’t make you money grabbing, but it can feel like love when there’s more cash to physically show that. It’s also harder to bring up issues about stuff when they’ve just bought you a Range Rover or taken you on an amazing holiday.
