Thread where we can all gossip

I hope Sophie does dump the twat. It's like she's been forced into an abusive relationship, poor woman. Really hope she recouples with the new guy.

I think Tom has fallen for Sophie really badly, I think Sophie has been using him from the start.
I also am starting to feel sorry for Zara too.

Rykard and Olivia - He has ruined this whole thing for himself now, anyone coming in will probably spread the gossip and then Rachel definitely won't be interested, still not sure if she didn't see for herself

I like Sophie but she is so hard to read

Sophie will pick Adam at the recoupling

I can't decide whether Sophie is genuine or not. I really feel for her - she just wants to find someone but is realising that this isn't the place. But then I think is she just kidding us?

She definitely seems loads older than the rest.

I am finding myself actually liking Zara a little now and going off Sophie after tonights episode. I think Sophie is really enjoying the situation with the new boy and is loving the attention but pretending that it's really stressful for her. And she dumped Tom last night did she not? Now she's back with him sending him more mixed messages but I do think she is too scared to just tell him to piss off. Tom's reaction tonight just creeped me out. Something else I can't shake is that I think he would make Sophie feel like utter shit if they were a couple outside the villa. If she wore something 'slutty' he would be quick to tell her she looked like a slut, if she got drunk she would be a 'slag' (as she supposedly has been already, in his opinion) and he seems like the type to make her feel dirty if she suggested something kinky that she likes that he doesn't deem appropriate. I dunno, I just get the feeling she is a little too wild for him and he would rain all over her parade and have her confidence at a low.

And their cupboard sex looked boring.

Zara is still annoying but I do feel sorry for her, she is trying so hard to make someone like her. This new guy isn't for her though, I think he's a bit of a twat to be honest and wtf is with his neck/shoulders?

I feel sorry for Zara. She's only twenty after all.

Sophie said he spent a day ignoring her after the cupboard sex. Niiiice.

Yes, she wasn't forced to couple up with Tom, but I think the format of the show is pretty odd. Really, it does pressurise them to be in fake relationships.

MissMoo, just so many red flags!

I watch it, but feel kind of horrified by it. This sums up how I feel about it, particularly the 'meat market' aspect when the women line up to be picked.

They tent too all be 'faces' same as last year. Just like BB, I suspect they've all been recruited.

I was on the 'scene' in London when I was younger. The cast of Towie, Ex on the beach. These people are all know in clubs and in Marbs, they all know each other, know of each other.

Like John and Hannah last year who were in with the Towie crew. This year is Nathan. Tom, Malin and Sophie are all friends with Geordie Shore cast members. Scott does PR.

It's all staged. These people don't just randomly pop up.

Do you ever wonder how you'd fare on a show like this? I couldn't cope with all the vanity and pretend relationships. I think I'd be the boys worst nightmare. I'd piss myself laughing at their leggings and skinny cropped jeans (wtf?) and shit hair do's (Tom, I'm looking at you). And the way Scott talks to people, he'd be getting a swift reality check.

Oh god - I'd have been in the diary type room crying all the time. I'd be the first to go.

Lacked confidence and feared rejection - I woulda been intimidated by everyone 😐

Much prefer to watch and bitch about them all from behind my screen 😳

I feel a bit sorry for Tom but he's awful. He'd be a nasty, possessive boyfriend.

Zara is total cringe but... I do keep reminding myself that she's 20 and I am rooting for her a bit.

You're not a prude Maryz, but the set up of the show is weird really. People are comfortable with different things but I think the show puts them in an odd position and it's sad to see Zara feeling like she has to prove she's sexually attractive. Sad to see how low the self esteem of some of the women is and how normal really misogynistic comments seem in there.

Newsflash - Sophie was Miss GB 2009

Rykard says they slept together ... Who believes him?

Me!

:'( for Zara

I believe him too! Do think Olivia is playing the game. Poor Rachel.

Olivia is fake ! Poor Zara think she needs to reign it it a bit as she is coming across so desperate. Suspect that her and Dan will get kicked off. Would be better to vote to kick them off rather than for perfect couple.

Why is Kady crying for Zara?
