I don't think they look stunning,njust hyper-groomed. I mean, there is no pretence of being naturally attractive is there?

GeriAtric · 15/06/2019 13:24

Don't the producers contact people via Instagram? All of the contestants probably look amazing on Instagram with filters etc. On TV they all look pretty normal to me.

I am really enjoying LI so much more since Maura went into the villa. She is completely staged but so is the whole show so I really don’t care.

Tommy will move on to any new girl. He is not looking for a girlfriend. Molly Mae treated him like crap and can’t handle not being the top girl.

Danny kisses Yewlande to stay in the villa for the next decoupling. I hate how Yewlande thinks she is somehow so different because she is studious. Michael is intelligent and well rounded enough not to constantly harp on about his career and education.

Amy is incredibly immature and I think unhealthily so!

Curtis is mature and quite funny at times but he wants to be last year’s Jack. I’d really like if he split up from Amy.

Lucie is lovely, really lovely. Joe genuinely likes her.

I think Maura knows she isn’t scaring Tommy. If he didn’t want the attention, he would tell the others to tell her to back down or just tell her himself.

Amber is beautiful and funny and quite scarey.

They are an immature bunch

Savoury99 · 15/06/2019 13:50

I think he realised Maura wasn't all that without her make up and decided he thought molly was more attractive 😬 Maura certainly looks her age without it

She's hardly ancient.

I do think she's too old for Tommy though. He seems really young and I think he's suited better to MM. I don't like Moira, I find her embarrassing to watch.

I feel sorry for Lucie, she is so natural too and I don't think she wants to be involved in all the bitching.

Savoury99 · 15/06/2019 13:51

Maura, WTF is Moira.

carmenbea · 15/06/2019 14:00

I didn't say she was old just older then the other girls and MM.

ScarletPower · 15/06/2019 14:11

I'm probably not saying anything that hasn't been said but Maura has sashayed into the villa, full of confidence, a sexy older woman (compared to the rest of them) and made a beeline for a 20-year -old lad. It is probably seemed like a fantasy come true for Tommy at first but when does fantasy ever live up to reality? Seems like he's actually frightened to death of her now he's had the chance to think things through overnight (or part of the night seeing it was dark when he crawled into Mollie Mae's bed).

Sagradafamiliar · 15/06/2019 14:46

Mum I looked at the photos you posted the first and second time and I still disagree with you and I'm not the only one. She looks the same, but different as one would in different photos with so many years in between, different brows and filled lips.
You keep saying she 'bought that face'...why do you feel that need? It comes across as bitter reading online, like you've caught her out with something. She looks confident enough to me. Who cares whether she looks different or not?

Sagradafamiliar · 15/06/2019 14:53

Actually I've just scrolled down and read that PP is talking to others like utter shit as well so I won't be engaging anymore. I'd forgotten that one of the crappiest aspects of the LI threads is the getting hung up over the women's looks and scouring the internet and daily mail for pics as 'evidence' to 'aha!' everyone with.

RozHuntleysStump · 15/06/2019 14:56

^^ I know. Bit sad really.

Whether she bought her face or not she does look lovely imo. I still think Mollie Mae is the bonniest. Shame it’s not on tonight! Whatever people think of Maura, they can’t deny she has brought it for the drama and entertainment.

GoldenGumballs · 15/06/2019 15:06

slipperorchid spot on, couldn’t put it better.
I don’t care what they do or do not do to their faces, boobs or backsides. What I do know is none of them know how to snog!

Darlin · 15/06/2019 15:22

The one who spent 20k on plastic surgery was Amy, not Maura. I think Maura looks the same apart from the lips. She's stunning either way with and without makeup or plastic surgery or no.

HollySniffs · 15/06/2019 15:52

Mum what has what Kate Middleton or even Catherine of Cambridge and her weight got to do with anything on this thread?

FieldsOfWheat · 15/06/2019 16:00

AliasGrape "the whole ‘don’t get in with girls, never had a girl friend, girls are so bitchy and full of drama’ is such a tired old trope that needs squashing. Half the population is female - if you can’t get on with half the population the problem is probably you"

But Lucie obviously didn't mean it about 3 billion people - she meant it about the people she's personally come across, and you can't poo-poo her personal experience.

I have had a similar experience - I have had female friends bitch about me in the room next door where I could hear, drive me to mental breakdown by insisting I "spend more time with them" and being possessive/guilt-trippy over me while we houseshared, and stop talking to me because I wasn't sympathetic enough about their 5th breakup with the same guy. I've had female friends blank me and make catty comments after arguments and shout at me at tube stations. I cancelled a large birthday party because of above mental breakdown, and above friend texted me saying she was offended I didn't want to spend my birthday with her.

I've never had any experiences like that with male friends. So I don't appreciate comments saying I'm trying to be a "cool girl". In my life so far I have just had an easier time with men and am obviously not a "girls girl". And I don't have to be! We're all different!

HJWT · 15/06/2019 16:07

Womens’ behaviour can sometimes be an issue. They tend to want to analyse everything and talk about everyone and have a hierarchical structure in friendship groups.

Men are different in that sense. They don’t care about these things. Men rarely fall out as a result, women fall out constantly.

You can’t blame women for being wary of other women.

GeriTe · 15/06/2019 16:12

This thread hasn't been the same since caravan gate 😂😂😂

SheStoodInTheStorm · 15/06/2019 16:13

@ScarletPower glad you found it funny! Thought i was alone!!

InsertFunnyUsername · 15/06/2019 16:21

I think the old photos of maura don't do her justice, we all have photos of ourselves in our teenage days over done make up, hairstyles we thought were amazing. Of course she has had work done, but its not all fake a lot of it will be make up. Even if it is, she is a very pretty woman there is no denying that, im not sure why people are?

Amy annoys me, when people say "i dont get on with girls" i think they mean girls like her, always making a drama wanting to get the group together and if you dont fit in there must be something wrong. Tommy knows going for Maura would be a bad move for the long run, if they were in a club and she sashayed over to him no chance he would say no i wouldn't

Yewande and Danny are boring, Amy I quite like Amber and Michael now.

InsertFunnyUsername · 15/06/2019 16:23

And Amy*

Sounds more like you just hung out with some awful women. Did it really not occur to you that many if not most women don’t behave like that?

TatianaLarina · 15/06/2019 16:27

Whaat?
