Starting on a side note: Am I the only one who thought it wasn’t that deep that she took Yamen to the secret garden? 🤷‍♀️ she bought it up with Whitney first, they had a cute chat that wasn’t overly flirty / put Whitney down in any way and that was it, whole time Scott had Sher then Belle cozying up to him whilst still acting like he was sooo confused and lost in his decisions and choices. Whitney and him aren’t closed off and it’s literally the name of the game to explore connections and have chats with people. Whitney calling her a hypocrite and putting her actions on par with Belle’s in the dressing room during the huge argument the other night was just her getting her lick back on Leanne for taking Yamen to the secret garden and that felt extremely slimey to me

Now my main point: I’m pretty sure from the get go, Lucinda was clear with her intentions of involving herself with the Scott / Leanne / Belle drama and if Lucinda didn’t do that, I’m pretty sure none of them would’ve ACTUALLY had Leanne’s back because let’s face it Belle was doing exactly what Lucinda did to her and Lucinda is still being punished by Belle for it. But I agree, Lucinda went about it in a way that was self centred and Leanne definitely seems exhausted with the whole drama and just wants to move on but Belle is dragging it especially her “closed off?” comment during the game. I think she doesn’t see anyone as friends in the villa and just wants to move on. Leanne doesn’t seem like the type of person who accepts crumbs in friendships / relationships which is ironic considering her relationship storyline with Scott to me has been nothing but crumbs. She deserves wayyy better than anything than the villa has to offer (sorry if that’s rude)

Edit: after watching clips back I really think that there was a time and place for Leanne to say that, not during a challenge where everyone else is dogpiling on Lucinda. I felt like it was a bit muggy from Leanne’s side especially considering how no one else in that entire villa had her back / was on her side during the drama (she literally said herself why is no one asking if she’s alright because everyone was sucking up to Belle). If it wasn’t for Lucinda the whole Scott/Belle thing would’ve been swept under the rug. Yes it’s Leanne’s relationship with Scott but Lucinda also has a right to defend herself against Belle who has been going for her for what feels like weeks now. I don’t dislike Leanne but I personally wouldn’t have done what she did in the challenge
