Im an episode behind. Why didnt they cook the fajita veg in one pan and have a single pan for just chicken? They could all choose the bits they wanted and Nathan could eat with them. That's what I would have done?

Were there actually any vegetables? I thought it was just chicken.

Yes there were veg. I think I saw red onions and peppers. Just for some reason, Nathan wasn't allowed any.

Maybe the programme set the mum up. Perhaps the gave her the ingredients and didn’t give any veg?

Yumyi · 06/10/2024 12:01

Sorry didn’t read your post @Waterboatlass

MounjaroUser · 06/10/2024 12:07

Yes, on one of the podcasts - I think it was MAFS Hysteria - they said that the mum had been told she was going to cook chicken fajitas. Having said that, if I'd turned up there ready to cook them, once I heard the boyfriend was vegetarian I'd tell the girls to pick up something else for him. She behaved very oddly.

Yumyi · 06/10/2024 12:14

So the programme did set her up to an extent. I mean they provided vegetables but perhaps in her nervousness or whatever, she didn’t think and just stuck straight to what she had been told to do. The programme makers definitely knew he was vegetarian so they could have said to her. Nathan is vegetarian so we provided you with a vegetarian meal to cook for everyone or a vegetarian option for him

MounjaroUser · 06/10/2024 12:19

They wanted to show her ignorance. That's not fair. Participants in the show know they might have a problem with social media but one of the parents shouldn't have that.

Lacey's mum was utterly horrific last night, such a bitch. She was not only totally unreasonable and nasty but also came across like a complete half wit (as did the twin). Lacey has defended her and said it's the edit, that there were also lots of hugging and happy moments between them and Nathan. Maybe there were, but the camera doesn't lie and she is on film being a nasty bitch so 🤷🏼‍♀️

Lacey's mother came across as narrow minded, rather ignorant and as subtle as a sledgehammer. There may well be a side of her which is nothing like any of these but, sadly, I didn't see it. I felt really sorry for Nathan being left alone with her, for the first time, and her being so negative towards him. 🌹

I dont understand how they relied on their guests to bring their own dinner, cook it and not inform them of Nathan's diet....or buy in something for him

Maybe the Mum wanted to control

The producers would have organised it all - given the mum the food to bring and told them what was happening step by step - except they would have left out the fact he was vegetarian. There would have been discussions before filming about what questions she should ask, what she should be concerned about - it is all manipulated for entertainment.

Talking of manipulation @dontbesillyofcourse , Paige's IG is very much a lesson in the power of a good filter; not quite the same mother that we saw on Thursday! 🤣

Lacey’s mum. FFS! Turning up at a vegetarian’s home with chicken and veg fajitas, refusing to cook the veg separately so the vegetarian can have some, and insisting that the the vegetarian preps the raw meat! Ignorance at its finest. And asking him if he’s in love with her daughter after two weeks. Give it a rest.

Villagetoraiseachild · 06/10/2024 17:15

Please can we have the Mafs created term Fajitagate in the next title please,@Dillite2 .
Thanking you.

Namechangefordaughterevasion · 06/10/2024 18:03

Lacey's mum snivelling "I know I'm a good cook' when what I saw were giant white chunks of spiced chicken breast served with WKD.

I'm not vegetarian (or even vegan!) but I'd struggle to choke that down.

That was a really tough watch.

The ' dancing ' video is like watching some form of AI robot malfunction where they start speeding up and talking and moving really fast before they explode with sparks flying.

Actually, does anyone remember the child traumatising scene from Superman 3 when that lady gets turned into a robot and goes nuts. She actually looks like the mum now I think on it!

And agree with PPs that Luke would give any woman the ick! He’s very handsome but has totally overdone the gym sessions (reminded me of Gaston) and is obsessed with presenting this image of himself as smooth, suave, perfect gentleman. How many women actually want a man like that? I like a person who is real, and above all else, doesn’t take themselves too seriously. I’d take Kieran over Luke any day. Will be interesting to see the real him emerge. This couple will definitely stir things up though. Most of the blokes will fancy the lady with frankfurters on her face, and most of the women will like the Malteser.

lol at this. I'm old and if I had my time over again I'd definitely ditch the beast and go straight for Gaston ...or Luke. I'm not saying they would have become life partners but it would have been an enjoyable memory.

I am so old. I'm sure TikTok is some super hitech Chinese weapon to make our children dumb as rocks so that eventually they can just take over the world.

This Sunday sure does suck, no MAFS and no Block til tomorrow night. Bah!

PollyPeeves · 06/10/2024 19:57

To keep us amused til the next episode...? Of the current grooms who would everyone choose to be paired with?
For me at the moment, it would have to be Orson.

Ugh. Probably Orson too. Nathan would be pretty boring after a while.

Tittat50 · 06/10/2024 20:08

If I was young and attractive I'd go for Nathan. It probably wouldn't last too long from a mental stimulation point of view.

Orson is ok. I want to see a bit more about him though. I find him a bit dull. But he's probably the long term option.

I do like Ross but feel he's pretty one dimensional. They just don't seem to have that much about them these guys.

Caspar is traditionally handsome but I can see him on the phone to mummy every night moaning about his sister being a meany. That's a big T. O.

I know it's gross - but - I have a feeling shit lid would be good in bed 😆

dapsnotplimsolls · 06/10/2024 20:12

Ewww. I suspect Shitlid is very ... selfish.

I think it's the knowing that he is a bit of a wrongun and it's degrading that might play into that idea in my mind 🤣 This is fantasy / imaginary realms only btw. 🤮 I keep imagining him engaged in the act and I don't know why. He's vile I know 🤷‍♀️🤣

Anyhoos, onto the next person's answer.....( quietly walks away whistling so as not to draw any further attention to said revelation)

I imagine that Shitlids shit lid doesn't move whilst shagging, as we're on that topic.
