AIBU Paul Hollywood is a bit of a twit?

Unkind of me but can't help laughing as girlfriend has given him the elbow now his divorce has been finalised. Apparently she refused to sign a gagging order that would have prevented her speaking about him. Ker -ching! How unreasonable. Nevertheless, I predict a monster magazine wedding in the future and much, much more to read about life with lovely Paul. And cake too, of course 🎂

Ruby Tandoh wasn't a fan either....

The mum is in on the act now. Latest staged pictures of her and her mum walking dogs in matching ripped jeans. His ex young gf does not look remotely heartbroken. The NDA included her not speaking about their relationship with her family. I think he could see that the mum wanted to be famous on the back of his relationship (that earlier cringe video) and had suspicions of both their intentions. He has been played, karma for the arrogant tosser.

He really puts me off GBBO.

longwayoff · 09/08/2019 13:10

An yes, new season GBBO, predict tight lipped mums and grans will be turning off in droves. Last season was pretty poor actually, didn't it finish up with sossage n beans on a campfire?

Last year was rubbish.

Elliebellbell · 09/08/2019 14:10

Just read an article with Ruby's tweets about him, she really doesn't hold back!

bellabasset · 09/08/2019 14:16

I thought asking for the £560 he paid for the ex and her dm to do a charity sky dive was a bit much.

longwayoff · 09/08/2019 14:24

Good for Ruby. I don't really consider PH to be a twit, he is an obvious masterbaker and merits a far more pithy description, however, how much fun can we have if first post gets deleted for being too frank?

I've just searched Ruby Tandoh and realised she's a former GBBO contestant but can't find what the previous posters are referring to with regard to Pork Hollywood - can someone link or enlighten the rest of us??? thanks

CoffeeQueen24 · 09/08/2019 20:12

He’s an absolute tool.
His ex wife deserves far far better than him.

Sarcelle · 10/08/2019 03:29

Can't stand Paul but not so keen on Ruby either. A bit charmless, and always snivelling on GBB.

OpheliaTodd · 10/08/2019 09:36

Oh god yes. Ruby. All that faux angst, with downcast eyes and a barely disguised smirk while murmuring “OMG it’s all gone wrong. It’s disgusting. Don’t even look at it” knowing full well it was fine.

drowningincustard · 10/08/2019 09:45

thanks @Patroclus!

GrimDamnFanjo · 11/08/2019 01:54

I recall Ruby made remarks about his cars and "peacocking " behaviour.
As the press had tried to construct a story regarding their "sexual tension " it was quite entertaining...

Mileysmiley · 11/08/2019 01:58

This story has amused me ... Dough Noy has got what he deserves!

Mileysmiley · 11/08/2019 01:59

whoops! Dough Boy was what I meant to type lol

TheOnlySnot · 11/08/2019 02:06

Too right, and he’s not even handsome imo!

ooooohbetty · 11/08/2019 08:04

I bet her mother is behind the taking legal action stuff.

longwayoff · 11/08/2019 08:22

Legal action?Hmm She hasn't had a job for a couple of years and I doubt she saved enough from her barmaid 's pay to satisfy a clutch of hard nosed barristers. ££££££s. Never happen.

Ahhhh....My aching sides. This thread is comedy gold. Just loving the name Pork Hollywood. 🤣🤣

Sarcelle · 11/08/2019 18:09

His ex gf family have money. They live in a million pound house in Kent and own businesses in London. They are not short of a bob or two. I am not sure why she had a barmaid job but she seems the social type (!) so perhaps she enjoys that type of work.

They are on the make but I suspect they are motivated by fame rather than ££££s, but lovely to have of course.

PolkadotLollipop · 11/08/2019 18:12

YABU to think he’s only a ‘bit’ of a twit.

LadyTiredWinterBottom2 · 11/08/2019 18:15

I hate the way he makes the contestants in GBBO uneasy by asking them a question, they answer and he just stares and smirks at them
