Is there a Rebecca Humphries thread? Her public statement about the end of her relationship is awesome.

Amazing. What a bright, strong woman. For Rebecca Wine Gin Cake

Got it, thank you - I knew I was missing something...

Gemini69 · 08/10/2018 23:08

Credit to her.. and I loved her statement... he's a DICK ... he treated her like shit.. called her a psycho.. gas-lighted her fears and undermined her calling her names.. whoever captured those photos.. Well Done too you too... Flowers

Never trust a man who looks that much like Justin Lee Collins.

Well, it seems that Katya and Sean(n) ( pretentious prick) have been carrying on for a while.
Why the hell should Rebecca keep quiet.?
She has taken back the control that this man has taken from her. He’s been gaslighting her , telling her she’s nuts for suspecting that he was having an affair.
He’s obviously a serial cheat, but now she has video evidence.
Good on her
The best thing is that she got the cat

Well done to Rebecca for putting the record straight on what a nasty piece of work he really is!

Calling her a psycho and getting really angry with her because she called him out on his behaviour!...classic cheater response!

Glad she has dumped his sorry arse and took the lovely cat!
I hope Rebecca has a great life cos she deserve's a lot better than that smarmy git!

SukiPutTheEarlGreyOn · 08/10/2018 23:41

By playing the ‘silent and dignified’ role she would have allowed someone else (Sean(nnnn), Katya’s PR team, random media commentators etc) to steer the narrative (apologise, minimise and move on). Instead she took back control, refused to take the victim role assigned her and nabbed the cat. Actually, I think her response showed a great deal of dignity but also a quiet anger that articulately communicates ‘stick your half arsed apology-bot response. You don’t get to tell my side of the story, I do.’ Hope we hear more from her (not on this subject - she’s already done the mike drop moment on that) as she sounds great.

Chickenitalia · 08/10/2018 23:41

Well done Rebecca. A classy and erudite response, far above the way she’s been treated. He sounds like a complete tool, and she is well rid. Good that the cat is also rid of him. I just hope Neil is also getting support as he must be struggling at the moment, poor guy. Let’s see Tess and Claude brush this under the glittery carpet. Cheating on your partner’s birthday is a special form of low.

Calling her a psycho and getting really angry with her because she called him out on his behaviour!...classic cheater response!

For sure, generally followed by 'but it's your fault that did it because of the way you go on'.

Wonder what the odds are of Sean(n) going into 'rehab'? That's what celebs usually do when they get caught behaving like a twat, isn't it? Magically wipe the slate clean, with the added bonus of a ready-made cadre of comeback interviews / spin-off shows.

Couldn’t agree more WinterSunglasses

PolkaDoting · 08/10/2018 23:55

I completely cringed when she referred to herself as (not a) victim in the first sentence. cringe

AssassinatedBeauty · 08/10/2018 23:59

Why, PolkaDoting?

TheFormidableMrsC · 09/10/2018 00:00

I think it's an excellent and dignified statement and I wish I'd had her fortitude when it happened to me. Further, they ALL tell you're "mad", a "psycho", "nuts" if you dare question their behaviour. This doesn't surprise me at all, it's texbook gaslighting.

She got the cat though...good lass!

I have noticed on Twitter tonight that Katya's husband has changed his header to one of himself and Katya entwined. He must be feeling like shit. I hope he bins her off. That was a "one off drunken mistake", it was a full on snog and not for the first time I'd suggests. What an utter pair of bastards they are.

HooseRice85 · 09/10/2018 00:20

Amazing statement. All that’s missing is a mic drop 🎤

Katyas husband proper gives zero fucks doesn’t he?!

Togaandsandals · 09/10/2018 00:39

I had never heard of him until recently. Last week I looked him up on YouTube. The start of his standup routine was taking the mick out of people who are overweight. I wasn’t impressed and turned it off. This latest saga confirms he is not a nice person.

Rebecca36 · 09/10/2018 00:43

I'd never heard of either Seann Walsh or Rebecca Humphries before Strictly; from what Rebecca has written, he sounds like a real piece work!

I honestly don't know if she was right to write or if it would have been better to just maintain dignified silence. However she may give confidence to other women in a similar position so that's a positive. She was with him for five years! Who'd have thought it.

I'm more disappointed in Katya who is such an amazing dancer and seems so nice (or did); she was great last year with Joe. The Matrix dance on Saturday was fabulous. It's such a shame.

PickAChew · 09/10/2018 00:47

Lucky cat.

tobee · 09/10/2018 03:23

I think it's great that she reaches out to other women who might be going through similar. And clearly states how cheaters seem to behave when accused.

I only know of Seann Walsh on the periphery of my brain iyswim, but I always thought he's likely to be a nob with his self regarding hair.

Doobigetta · 09/10/2018 06:13

Good for her. I always thought Sean(n) Walsh came across as a nasty, self-obsessed, misogynistic prick.

NicoAndTheNiners · 09/10/2018 06:30

Just a drunken kiss?

If I was her I’d have been upset about the drunken kiss but I’d have been far more upset about his nasty, abusive behaviour calling her a psycho and nuts, etc when she voiced her suspicions.

She’s done the right thing.

NicoAndTheNiners · 09/10/2018 06:32

I also don’t under stand the (n) thing.

Lallypopstick · 09/10/2018 06:36

Someone has explained it at the top of this page Nico

TokyoSushi · 09/10/2018 06:37

Just read it, she's fabulous!

NicoAndTheNiners · 09/10/2018 06:37

Thanks, missed that post. Found it now. He sounds like a total tosser.
