I'd forgotten what mean girls Grace and Nikki were, hopefully their feeling pretty embarrassed now. I'm impressed that Grace and Mike are still together and have children, you never see them at z lister events so maybe the public hatred towards Grace at the time made her rethink her attitude.

Surely that’s more down to the guest list? Inviting Dean Gaffney is one thing, but “someone from Big Brother 15 years ago” is pushing the limits surely?

That episode wasn't much good, there is far better BB stuff that I doubt they will show as its probably not PC enough for 2020.

Totally agree, why waste an episode on this one ? Why are they none with Brian Dowling IMO the best BB housemate of all time ? I would love to have seen the task episode where he and Bubble had to go in the garden and dance, its was brilliant or anything with Brian and Narinder

I saw an article on the Mail Online website this morning about Grace and Mikey and about how they are still together and now have three children. A few things surprised me; firstly that Grace made enough money from BB initially to buy two houses, one in Liverpool and one in London, at the age of 20. Secondly, apparently being on BB enabled her to start her own kids performing academies around the country, which she has just sold for millions!

Your suspicions seem right, the performing arts company she claims to have sold for millions was actually struck off last year with £2000 in the bank. Only ever had the original hired hall down in the south which she closed when she moved to Liverpool. Doesn’t ever seem to have owned a premises for the business or taken more than 5k in a year.

Mikey I can’t find anywhere. But it seems suspicious to me that someone who “runs an advertising agency” wouldn’t take the opportunity to .... tell people what it’s called... in any article about them! Likely just an employee going along with his wife’s desire to seem successful. I’d also bet the “bought a house from BB” equates closer to having paid a deposit and got a mortgage, then sold the house to move up North where houses are cheaper

Good find! Oh that’s laughable - the advertising agency is actually a wholesale coffee company that hasn’t made a bean (pun) and recently came close to being struck off, his previous IT company made nothing and was struck off, his performing arts venture with Grace was also struck off, and his sole money-making company has £12k in the bank.
Also had a look at his registered business address, it’s on a small estate with a tyre fitter and MOT garage. Why do these people feel the need to pretend they are massively successful? Surely “we married and had three kids” is a decent enough story?

I recently watched that series and as good it was I cant think of any standout episodes if I'm being honest

I got the impression (maybe I was wrong mind) that Grace was from a very well off background and maybe she has inherited some money after the death of a grandparent or other close relative. Grace would never admit that she was skint or struggling and I bet she nags Mikey like anything. I thought they would be far more succesful than they are, and I know I shouldn't but I am smirking slightly.

Remember she was called, Moose face Grace 🦌
 
Slightly crazy that. If someone chucked a couple of hundred thousand at me I’d at least be able to have a business turning over 100k a year, even if it only made 20k. Personally I’d want to seem at least moderately successful, not pretend to have a business that sold for millions when it actually folded having never made money!
