Just started the first episode. I don't want to talk about the dumbass. My problem is Nancy. I thought at first that she must have let her mum and brother kick his ass and I was furious that she stopped them. But. I think that she's too mature, even for me 🤣🤣 She's totally playing the victim of the season scene. She wanted to kick his ass but with some class and make him look like an absolute fool. Maybe my opinion will change with the reunion! Will see.
 
Okay I'm watching!!

💕 Nancy and Barf: jesus what a prick!! I'm glad he said no and taught Nancy a lesson (hopefully). I am starting to dislike her as well. Jesus woman how bleeping old are you??? Grow up 😂 I can't believe she told her mum to go away in that tone so many times. That to me is a sign of being is a toxic relationship. When you push away your family, stop taking their views into account all for the benefit of some dick. Damn girl, never come back to him again. He seemed relieved when she said it's over.

💕 Just before Alexa and Brennons wedding: you know it would not surprise me if she went on this show only to become some next Kardashian type of girl 😂🤣 she's already rich from a rich family and uses this show for the step up and bigger audience.

And her dad is a snack 🤤

His vows were so touching! And hers fell very flat.... Hope they survive! Cute 😋

💕 Zanab is soooo gorgeous! Stop!!

Coles friends praying with him before she comes in was seriously creepy lol

duck! Zanab did it. What an amazing speech. Love that for her. And love that embarrassment for him xoxo this is what Nancy should have done 100% and I'm so proud of Z for this!

"she has me fooled big time" really?? You fooled yourself, fool, big time.
 
I didn’t like Alexa’s wedding make up at all. It was just way too much and the lipstick was the wrong colour. Spanx as lingerie aren't wedding night lingerie! 😉 The clips we were shown in the episode prior with it all kicking off with Brennon were, as suspected, a red herring. Weird that we never saw them in context though. Of all the couples I think these stand a good chance as long as he tows the line. Alexa definitely wears the pants in that relationship. I think he will live by the mantra “happy wife, happy life.”
 
I fast forwarded most of the wedding episode, so much fluff and filler, honestly at this point I don’t care about the weddings, just show us the outcome.

Some thoughts about the reunion. Bartise is still a massive immature little boy.
wtf was Nancy wearing?! The hair, the gold, she is a gorgeous girl but that outfit did her no favours. The Cole and Zay thing, I think at the point “orange-gate” happened he had already been pretty consistently putting her down, coupled with the Colleen thing, it doesn’t matter how self confident she is/was she might have been worn down by then. I don’t think Cole is another Shake, but he is completely unaware that he oozes dumb frat boy energy. American reality tv is far more manufactured than our U.K. shows and they are pretty manufacture so I do believe they left out scenes to control the narrative

She looked so uncomfortable, Matt looked like he won lottery because his basic arse could never have dreamt he would get a woman like Colleen. She just looked uncomfortable and a little scared. Matt is a walking red flag. I think they will be happy as long as they stay in their bubble. If she ever tries to spread her wings he will lose his tit

Raven is playing the long game, securing the future bag with SK, girl isn’t dumb
 
Hmmm… I wish someone would tell Colleen’s face how happy and in love she is! I’ve never seen such a miserable newlywed. Also they are living separately because she’s signed a lease and doesn’t want to let her roommates down? Come on, think of a better excuse than that! Pay the rent but live with your husband. I think she’s stalling. Matt another strange one. Imho he went on this to show his first wife “look what I've got now and how happy I am without you!” He wasn’t ready to marry again. He reminded me of my BIL. When my BIL found out his first wife was remarrying, he rushed and got married to his girlfriend the week before his ex at the same venue she was using! He had to beat her to it. His second marriage didn’t last either. 🙄 I don’t think Matt and Colleen will last beyond the year. I also thought Nick’s comment to Matt re “better second time round“ was unnecessary and quite nasty and disrespectful to Jessica tbh.
 
I’m sorry but what Zanab did in front of his friends was downright nasty. 2 wrongs don’t make a right. She could have given her reasons respectfully without doing a complete character assassination. I lost some respect for her tbh and to do a prayer before that was even worse.
Coles biggest problem is that he just needs to grow up. Other than the lusting after Colleen (who imho is overrated - Zanab is much better looking) and the bi-polar comment, I don’t think he intentionally meant things in the way they came across. He is just not very articulate.
Re Orangegate - that was blown completely out of proportion by Zanab. She reminded me very much of Roxanne Pallett in Big Brother when she said Ryan punched her when we all saw the reality was nothing like that. I think Zanab likes to play the victim too - look at how the rest of the couples knew all about Cole and ganged up on him because of what Zanab said. They took her word for it without any proof. I’d love to know their thoughts after seeing Orangegate. Again in Big Brother, the other celebs all believed Roxanne until they saw the truth. I think Zanab takes a molehill and in her mind it becomes a mountain. I also don’t believe that she only decided to say no when she was in front him. Rubbish! She planned to humiliate him. That wasn’t a spur of the moment thing. It was revenge.
Also, it may just have been her dress style but her boobs looked much bigger at the reunion!
 
I think they made the right decision not to marry - yet! SK needs to focus on his studies right now. If their relationship lasts long distance then I think they’ve got a good chance. I also love that they abstained until after they didn’t get married! I’ll be honest, I judged Raven at first but that changed when she shut down Bartise. I also think she genuinely loves his family and they love her. I also love that SK had no idea what Pilates was so really was love is blind for him! Fingers crossed they last.
 
Something about Raven still doesn't sit well with me, even though she seems a redeemed character to everyone else... I did like how she stood up for the other girls, love the girl power this season but something smells off to me. SK is a sweetheart, good on him for calling out Barfise!!

I thought it was also very sweet of Zanab's stepmum to console Cole

I so don't think there was anything wrong with that clip at all on Coles part. At all. Like others said he was eating with her and then he said he offered her food. She is just a dramatic witch and declined the food and got into her head that she's fat.

I'm just sad for her that she didn't feel secure in that relationship but I don't think it was completely his fault. They are polar opposites and should not be together. Great job guys!,
 
i think if zanab had acted the way she did with Cole and was a man it would have been a totally different issue. I wasn’t a fan of him the whole season but I do genuinely feel sorry for Cole at the end. She talked down to him the entire time and her speech was completely unnecessary to do in public.
 
AHHH I just watched the episodes and caught up on all the posts, you guys are echoing my thoughts completely!
I actually teared up at the end of the reunion episode at Cole's raw sadness! That was true pain, no acting. He is a bit dumb and naive, and said thoughtless things occasionally, but I don't believe he's bad or malicious. I was so shocked that Zanab laid into him like that at the wedding. Why did she save up all that bad feeling and then spew it out in front of all his friends and family, when the dude was stood there looking at her with nothing but love in his eyes? I didn't expect to be saying this, but team Cole!
I was also baffled by that clip at the end, I watched it twice trying to see for myself what Zanab was insinuating. I was so glad when I came on here and saw you guys saying the same thing. I think it was actually just proof of how dumb-but-sweet Cole is - I saw nothing malicious. Obviously other things must have happened off camera so we don't have the whole context, but I just think it was very clear in the end that Cole truly loved Zanab.
I hope that there is aftercare for everyone on the show cos I think Cole really needs it.
Nancy is a QUEEN and I'm so happy she didn't end up with that toad. Barfise came across TERRIBLY in the reunion show, what a bleeping prat.
SK and Raven are so cute, I feel like their energies don't work on paper but really seem to compliment each other in real life - I'm rooting for them! His Pilates comments :ROFLMAO:
Agree that Colleen looked so uncomfortable throughout the reunion show!

Non spoiler comments:

- wow Alexa is truly stunning without makeup, I think this was the first time we'd seen her bare faced - the trowelled on makeup look her does her no favours.
- Matt's mum is freaking adorable.
- did anyone else feel super nervous for every single wedding or just me? :oops:

Really? I could imagine her being the mother in law from hell if you upset “her boy.”
