Bloody hell, some of us have to go to work! We're a talkative bunch, aren't we? Thread 4 already!

So Ange is apparently staying while she grieves for someone she hasn't spoken to for 40 years...

I would feel sad if my ex died as he is the Father of my child and ww were together for years. YANBU.

unimaginativename13 · 12/01/2016 12:25

She still has his name so I think even tho they haven't spoken for 40 years she still has his name and she is still famous for being his wife.

She went into the BB house as David Bowies Ex wife so it seems like he must still be a big part of her life even just be association.

She isn't Angie XYZ who just so happen to be married to someone famous a long time but has built her own independent career.

Agree with this.

I cried at intervals yesterday over DB. I never met him. I think it's not crying for her ex that she hadn't seen for so long so much as the part of her life she spent with him and had a child with him. She doesn't speak to her son but I bet she still loves him. I imagine she's crying for his pain and the fact that he's lost his father. I don't like her at all and I was hoping she'd be gone soon but I feel for her at this time.

unimaginativename13 · 12/01/2016 12:40

However she has not seen her son either for many many years and has no contact.

So if the father of your children died, and you were close to your child, you would be upset for your child too. There isn't that relationship there.

NickiFury · 12/01/2016 12:45

Of course. I would never stop loving and caring for my child's well being no matter how long I didn't see him for. That would be impossible for me. I imagine most parents feel the same.

Ledkr · 12/01/2016 12:47

We don't know why tho do we?
The son might have been awful or swayed by his dad, it does happen.
I just felt it was a big double standard!

SoleBizzz · 12/01/2016 12:51

I read DB used people and cast them aside when they no longer served any.purpose.

EnriqueTheRingBearingLizard · 12/01/2016 13:30

Dowser, these are for you Flowers what a horrendous experience, hope all goes well now.

Stila Flowers for you too.

I would expect Angie's in shock and it's not something I want to see.
Regardless of what kind of relationship she had with DB, or how it ended and the estrangements since, then death is so final and it will also make her think about her own mortality. She surely needs to be able to talk with someone close to her and express her feelings, which will be very complex I should think.

I really don't feel the BB house is the right environment for someone like her, but it's a big pay day and Ch5 don't seem too fussy. Hopefully they will at least provide a counsellor she can speak with privately.

I'm of the same mind Mary very cynical about the fauxmances and breakups.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 12/01/2016 14:26

Oh Dowser Flowers - you must feel like you've been through a wringer. Hope things start to improve now. Feel bad about begrudging you your night off BB now. But not bad enough for you to feel that you can make a habit of it.

I am afraid that as she hadn't spoken to her ex husband for 40 years, had spent the intervening period exploiting his name whilst slagging him off to anyone who would listen, made no attempt to keep in contact with her child and has not spoken to the child for 31 years since he was 13, then no, I don't think she has any right to wallow in faux-grief.

She's admitted she left her son with him after they split, knowing that he was taking drugs in the hope it would sort him out.

Dowser · 12/01/2016 14:30

Thanks girls.. It's ok wild heart I didn't take anything the wrong way ;-)

We are actually going away next week. So was praying he can fly. Seems to be ok.

But yes, he's bouncing around. He's been for a walk and got a bit of shopping...despite us going to Asda last night...Doh! We really need to get our act together!

I just need to calm down now.

I've caught up with CBB. Loved the task. Very cleverly done.

Really felt for nancy. Three hours out in the cell must have been horrendous.

Did someone say Jonathan has left. I didn't see that in the programme. I'm sorry to hear that. I wanted to see how his non relationship with Gemma developed. Notice his comment...I got a massage from Gemma .then laughed and corrected himself. Wonder why he doesn't like her.

Stephanie gets on my wick. I hope she goes next...as I don't have much wick left ha!

Testosterone is running like a river!

Dowser · 12/01/2016 14:36

When my exh died last Christmas, I shed a tear or three.
More out of the sadness of what might have been. Wherever there is a change there's always a loss . I know I'm often very scathing of his behaviour but he loved his kids and his actions left a big split down the family which had previously been a very close unit and I've managed to continue with new DH.

So, maybe Angie was just giving a nod to their past. There were times when they will have loved each other very much and had some great times and tender moments with their son. He wasn't only her husband, father to their son but also an icon.

Providing she wasn't going to make a meal of it, I think she's allowed her tears.

SheHasAWildHeart · 12/01/2016 14:38

Did Steph and Jeremy know each other beforehand? I was surprised at how they seemed so cosy so quickly.

Goingtobeawesome · 12/01/2016 14:39

Only watching snippets. Enjoying this thread more. But what did Kristina not like as read on page 2 please?

AnneEyhtMeyer · 12/01/2016 14:58

Going - her surprise present was "nothing". She wasn't amused.

Dowser · 12/01/2016 17:38

True Anne. I thought that was the best task I've seen and reckon they should do it more often ;-)

When did Jonathon quit?

SoleBizzz · 12/01/2016 17:41

Last night Dowser. He is on BOTS tonight.

NickiFury · 12/01/2016 17:53

I'm quite sad he's gone, he was funny. I don't think he ever had any intention of being in for the entire time though. He's far too high maintenance.

Thank you Anne.

Goingtobeawesome · 12/01/2016 18:25

The cynical bit of me wonders if Angie will now start saying she was mean about him because she was hurting so much they split as she still loved him and it was self preservation.

I have heard people doing covers of his songs without realising they were his.
