Considering the press are hounding her till the end (respects) - what do you feel on this situ.

 

[TheDoctor]

Hounding by the press? She's hired Max Clifford and selling coverage of her wedding...

 

[roadiewill]

isnt it so that she can raise as much money for her children as she possibly can?

 

[wafflycat]

Yes, she seems to be raising as much money as she can, so her kids have some sort of financial security when she's dead. Plus she's raising awareness of the need for cervical screening at a young age. All credit to her, she seems to be making the most of a very bum deal so her kids are as ok as they can be in the circumstances. Of course, one hopes that her soon-to-be-husband manages to keep out of prison & do the decent thing by the kids...

 

[Cathryn]

I agree with Waffles actually. Not a fan at all of the girl but she seems totally driven now to make the best of her children's future and I can only applaud her for that. I wouldn't watch, but I admire her guts in this situation. It's awful that this has happened, no matter what you think of the girl.

I actually thought it was a publicity stunt initially. Slightly embarrassed about that now.

 

[downfader]

Cant stand the girl, never liked her. Do I feel sorry for her and the way her life has ended up..? Yes. What a horrible way to go.

 

[barq]

Her life has been public for so long that I suspect it rather defines her. So I can see that she probably has her own reasons (aside from money for the kids and raising cancer awareness) for staying in the public eye.

The press are being vigorously courted to raise as much money as possible.

£800,000 for her wedding coverage in something like Hello
£100,00 for TV rights

I'd not exactly call that harassment.

 

[Night Train]

I have had no interest in her and her celebrity at all. However, what she is doing now is making the best of what she has left of her life based on what the media has made of her. She is doing it for the best for her kids on the basis that she can't do anything else. Had she not been ill, and terminally, I reckon she would have courted the press as her only real means of earning a living to raise her family. Now she hasn't much time left she is doing the only thing she can. She is also trying to raise the awareness of cervical cancer among, I guess, those who pay her more attention then would do the cancer otherwise.

I wish her all the best for the time she has left and hope no one, press included, make things any harder for her kids in their future.

+ 1

I did like her in BB but I wasn't impressed with the BB Celebrity.

I feel terribly sorry for her now. She's a young woman who doesn't deserve to die and leave her kids motherless.

I don't think anyone is hounding her. She is using the media for her own advantage - so be it, if it raises awareness and a few quid for the kids.

I think the wedding to that d*ck head is a bit off though.

 

[TheDoctor]

Quite so. Can'd blame her for that, in the ruddy terrible circumstances. I just meant that the press aren't really to blame here.

I agree. What an airhead, but sad. Not much positive in the story really.

 

[goo_mason]

I worry that the next step is the selling of her death on TV to the highest bidder. That creep Clifford's probably working on that right now.

Started out as a reality 'star' and will finish it as so. Surely the most private moment of her life won't be screened on Living TV.

Yip I agree in the past I couldn't stand the girl and I dislike the garbage she was on too but I wouldn't wish her fate on anybody.
