Pretty sure it's very recent. She's on Loose Women tomorrow as well so doing the round. Krishnan's shading of FR in his posts is very clearly reflective of his attitude.

Amanda interestingly mentioned 'three other women'. I guess she's talking about Laura, Ranvir and Zara? but for a minute I wondered if there was a fourth FR complainant, which would have to be either Faye or Rose..

Krishnan probably already dislikes Gio after he repeatedly called him tit as part of one of his tour skits, so nasty.
 
To be fair I can see why no woman ever wants to speak up - she's hysterical, she's dramatic, she loves the attention, she asked for it, she didn't say no, she was putting it on a plate, she's just jealous, she wants him, she rejected him, she was gagging for it, she's crazy, she's a diva, she fancies him, she's stupid, she's bored, she's arrogant, she's a witch, she's unhinged, she's neurotic, she's controlling, she's obsessive, she's mad, she's literally to blame for anything that may go wrong in her life just because she was born a woman. It will always be our fault. Always.
 
duck Strictly. I just cannot watch it this season I don't think. I'll just keep looking at the pros thinking "are you a secret head?".

It’s interesting having someone who had a very positive experience on the same series interview someone who had a negative experience. For me this strictly stuff and the reactions has highlighted what is wrong with society.

It always reminds me of this meme/cartoon (which accurately describes the situation between me, my brother's and my abusive mother):

A perfect example, I was just talking to my partner about how I've been feeling alot more irritable and mixing my words up lately (Health Anxiety so always assume the worst with these things) and he laughed at me and said "your just an angry woman". I'll caveat with he really is a great guy, but the internalised misogyny really exists in them all.
 
Makes me seriously question production if they initially wanted both Gio & Graz back this year despite knowing what they were up to.

It's not even like Graz was a viewer draw (not that that should affect a firing for physical abuse). Gio was but 4 partners complaining and that sort of behaviour negates his popularity.
 
She says she complained to the producers in WEEK ONE. And producers put in cameras then.
Krishnan says he saw Amanda having a hard time (confirming my suspicion he HATES FR). She says the cast group chat was full of people saying they were so sorry what was happening, and Krishnan agrees.

She says that the day it was announced she was partnered with him some of his previous partners messaged her in sympathy

Shame on the producers if that’s true, especially as it sounds like everyone was aware of the situation! They haven’t safeguarded her at all, what use is it putting cameras in, saying the footage is shocking but then doing nothing about it?!
 
There’s a part of me that wonders what would have happened if Zara also quit the show last year with Amanda and totally fucked up their show etc and together they made a stance.

i understand there are various reasons that couldn’t have happened but i feel like Amanda has been really dragged through all this and just wonder how it might’ve been
 
I believe Amanda. It's clear how much this has affected her and she's incredibly brave for refusing to back down. If staff were horrified by the footage while the situation was still ongoing, it's ridiculous that it's still unresolved almost a year later. I guess it's probably dragging on due to her taking legal action, when communication is done via solicitors everything takes much longer. The Graz situation would've been quicker because it was all dealt with internally. I do hope a solution is reached that satisfies Amanda and validates her claims. The misogynists attacking her will keep going regardless but it will really ramp up if Gio is cleared.
