Good point. But I never thought that Ben was broke. Him saying he was "homeless" probably triggered some people. However, you cannot live his lifestyle without having money behind you. As for Steven...........I never took much notice of Steven and Sabrina, so a lot went past me, but seeing him on the reunion makes me think he was another tight arse.
Benaiah does NOT look anything close to broke. I took one look at that man's long luscious, CLEAN well groomed hair and there's no way he can maintain that without money. Add to that his well trimmed beard and nice simple but very meticulous clean fits and you can understand this man has money behind him. The way he also jokes about his "homelessness" also clearly demonstrates he's comfortable poking fun at himself probably because he knows he's very financially comfortable.
Structural Landscaper jobs range from $75,000 to upwards of $100,000 in some countries. So he is probably busy working on too many projects to be stationed in one place. And single for 11 years? Just working and building up his experience in that field. My boy probably got BANK and is in high demand. I guess it's not a popular enough profession and that's also probably why the salaries are so high.
I felt like the Brits were so much more tolerable to watch than Americans. They are polite, self aware and willing to take accountability. It was refreshing.
I love how Beniah protects her. Nicole looked very distraught by the situation. I think she chose not to react because she doesn’t like confrontation. You can kind of tell that she’s a people pleaser because she was shaking.
I totally agree with this. Nicole was just too sweet to respond in the moment. She was totally caught off guard and didn't know how to go in on Sam about the lie he perpetrated.
I think they made a point of not getting into drama and just had the purpose getting relationship status updates. I wanted some more T too but respect it. There are more info and details in the podd casts.
The hosts being tame was a tactical decision for the Uk. Uk production companies are under a lot of pressure to take people’s mental health into consideration. In the last few years several reality tv stars have taken their lives because of the backlash from the public. It was them doing their due diligence. The reunion really needed to be 2 hours for Emma and Matt to ask more questions. They were trying to keep in time. Emma is used to hosting live tv so she was being a time keeper for sure 🤣
I think they did a great job hosting but I would've appreciated that extra time to do some follow ups to the cast's responses. Like Roxiie said: If Ollie knew that they were planning on/leaning towards "no", what were the theatrics for? Catherine: You just said "yes, I'm snappy" but I didn't hear an apology to Freddie for how you treated him throughout the season. Did you? Catherine: Have you gone to counseling yet to deal with your abandonment issues? Demi: How did you feel seeing Ollie's outward expressions of attraction on camera? Sharlotte: what do you mean he helped you get through the last few weeks? Freddie: What prompted you to ask Cat if she would be okay with leaving your estate to your family? Can you see how that conversation may have been a blow to her faith in the relationship? Steven: 8 months??? How is it that you haven't seen Sabrina in 8 months? Steven: If you don't like to use the phone and couldn't be in person, what did you think you were doing to nurture the relationship? Steven and Sabrina: It was shown on your wedding day that both of you had different expectations about day-to-day living. Had you set a travel schedule in advance? Hearing how Bobby made the decision to move for his marriage, did either of you discuss moving to the other's hometown in the same way? Tom & Maria: We could tell that you both had different expectations of partnership based on your conversations in the pods. What didn't we see/hear that explains why you agreed to move forward anyway? Tom: Why did say "I promise" to Maria's mom if you weren't sure you would be with her? Tom & Maria: did Tom introduce Maria to his mom off-camera? Sam: why??? Sam: if you didn't know for certain that you loved Nicole, why did you propose at all? Sam: You said a lot of words but your words mean nothing (s/o to Sabrina). What was the point in telling multiple people that Nicole tried to sleep at you? What was your goal? Benaiah and Nicole: how are y'all the cutest?! Nicole, how have you adjusted to the nomadic life?
That is a really good point about them taking their mental health into consideration! That makes sense on why they don’t ask the juicy questions or let them rip each other apart, cause they would l🩸🩸🩸Sam was definitely the villain of the season but, I did feel concern for him when he left the stage. 😢
@@CremeBrulee-qm8wi yes, I love tea too but at the end of the day these are still real people. Sabrina mentioned in a podcast that she was dismissed with depression and was on medication after the show so honestly they couldn’t let them rip each other apart for safe guarding reasons if nothing else. Those wounds were still very raw. To go deeper on other wishing they needed more than 1 hour
@@vaanda9446 Yep, which is a good thing even if we miss a bit of drama. Also, the cast's families were in the audience so it woulda be awkward for them to be fully honest in answers to hard questions 😅
No no no. The reason why people like Cat get away with things is because no one holds them accountable for their behavior. She immediately went to tears when demi confronted her. DEMIs mental health was hurt. FREDDIES mental health was hurt. Hold Cat accountable for her actions. It's not an attack.
I didn't feel bad for Steven and Sabrina because they didn't figure it out in the first place. They kept saying "ohhhhh we're gonna do ABC and figure it out later"
I completely agree, but there's a way to hold someone accountable respectfully, and it could help if they explain their side and clear the air. It may actually be worse to not address because viewers will maintain their negative perception of that person. I also wonder if cast members just refuse to talk about certain things that are shown 🤔.
Steven's story about his breakup with his ex that had cancer left me bewildered. I thought i was the only one that noticed holes in his story. I don't think he was being completely honest before and he isn't being honest about his break up with Sabrina now :)
@@MammaMaisel215a terminally ill person will only leave you if you are more a chore than a help. That was the first thing. Second, he didn’t even know how she was doing 3) the whole story was setup to make him look like the victim. How are you the victim in a story where a woman has cancer? Also. It was set up like the girl died. All of the above told me all i needed to know from jump. I never trusted him.
@@pearlosibu Yes to all of this. I had the same thought process when he brought it up. Was he trying to get sympathy by playing the victim when your partner is the one with cancer? I'm glad @roxiiesays mentioned it but I hope someone will go down that rabbit hole for me lol
I was confused too at Nicole’s reaction to Sam allegations, but I think it was shock. Her body language at their first meeting spoke VOLUMES. There was no way she was trying to sleep with that man.
I think Freddie is just the guy we thought he was. Just a kind sweet guy. I’m sure he was shocked by the amount of hate Cat got and ALL the love he got and seeing his character I don’t think that’d bring him glee. I’m sure he decided within himself Pre reunion to not do too much to her. He’s honestly too sweet for this kinda show and Cat got fvcking lucky cause another man would have draggedddd ger
@@dalubuhlengwenya7188 I think you’re right and honestly, it just makes us love Freddie more! Even when Cat tried to take a LITTLE accountability, it wasn’t satisfying. Freddie deserves more validation than that.
You're absolutely right. If it's any consolation, there will be women lining up in droves trying to date Freddie after this. He is truly a sweetheart and a genuinely decent and loving person. I really hope he meets someone who reciprocates that with him because he so deserves it after the trauma of being belittled and verbally abused by Cat (good name for her).
I have a feeling that when Netflix wants to reuse a cast member, they take it easy on them in these reunions. Examples: Jessica, Micah, Shayne.... Cat should've been asked ALL the questions!
London to Belfast flights start at $40. The train is 60. He would be staying with her not hotel needed what can he not afford? Steven is a bait and switch.
Catherine's parents have spoilt her and allowed her to walk all over them because they adopted her. I didn't like the way she treated her Dad when he was trying desperately to reassure her before the alter scene. She acted like he was a mere annoyance to her. Freddie shouldn't try to stay friends with her at all, he deserves way better. Well done to Betsy for speaking out before the alter scene, yes scene.
All I had been hearing how her adoption affected her life and relationships, i don’t care about her stupid and pathetic adoption, she’s a basket case and a bad person.
Beniah and Nicole's unseen clip just made everything make sense how excited Ben was when Nicole met him and why he took her back so easily and I really belive now he eas a mess after she had said no in the pods. I'm hlad Nicole made it clear Sam lied. Because her reaction when she saw him never indicated that she had physical interest in him. Also Nicole looked way to confused during the mixer when Sam said that.
I’m happy my original ship flourished. I loved Ben and Nicole together. When they first met I thought damn these people speak the same language if you get what I mean. I boohoo cried at their wedding and I had no doubts they’d be together at the reunion. Nicole was cackling at every scene with Ben, she lovessss that man and he lovvesssss her. When they showed that first reaction I boo-hoo cried more. So happy for her for following her heart and Ben being a forgiving person and not being caught up in this “2nd choice” thing people always talking about. What’s yours will always come back to you, that’s my opinion on that.
Yes, I was so glad when they came back to each other. They both owned up to the part they played in the beginning and that accountability has allowed them to flourish. I wish them many, many happy years together.
I really like Ben and Nicole together and now it clicks why he was so defensive of her. He is more of the firecracker and Nicole is more meek so he feels the need to protect. Maybe they will learn from each other.
She seemed salty in her recent interview but kept it classy. Sounds like Jasmine is besties with Sharlotte and they excluded Demi at a gathering. She said she's left all of the group chats.
Really glad that Demi called Sam out. I don't know why, but Cat still feels so fake to me. So happy for the two couples that are still together, that moment when they showed their reaction at the end of Nicole an Benaiah's first pod date was SO sweet (I teared up a bit) Anyway, Roxiie girl, what are we going to watch next?😮
I did NOT see that drama coming with Steven and Sabrina… 👀 I guess they saved all the tea for after the altar 🫖 Also Demi was not holding back - the way she went in on Sippy Cup Sam 🤣
I agree. In the original episode he said he wanted to take things slow and she said so did I. He kept over talking her too. In general people sometimes stop listening when they hear something that seems like "tea".
Nicole confirmed this at the reunion live show taping - podcaster aunties said she paused waiting for him to dig himself a deeper hole. Production edited out her response completely to imply she agreed what he was sayin. #liessamtells
@@kalindazimba1854 that’s why I was confused! I did say in a previous video that it’s possible that her response was edited out. I’d be pissed if I was her. Thankfully it all got cleared up!
Demi looked beautiful, all of the women did. I'm happy to see her embracing her beauty. Unfortunately still not a fan of Catherine and it's surprising her and Sam didn't try to get together. Ben &Nicole...bravo ❤! Nick & Vanessa should take note from the UK host. Also love your channel!
Cat guessed that Ollie was black. So she climbed on her preference pedestal. The arrogance and entitlement that social media has given to the Catherines of this world is off the charts.
Entitlement is the ugliest trait ever in a person, especially someone to marry. But to even go on these shows you'd almost have to have that in spades.
@@stephyworld8713 Same! I should have known he was too good to be true. Why would a man that looks like that, with his shit and finances together, owns a gym, is kind and outgoing, be single at 38? I don’t want to sound jaded, and while it is possible, they are unicorns or like a friend of mine used to say ‘purple squirrels’😂. Steven has reminded me to remember not to project my fantasies onto men based on how they come across. Goodbye Steven FOREVER!! 😔
I KNEW Sam was full of it. I didn't believe Nicole tried to sleep with Sam for ONE SECOND! Nicole seems like a non-confrontational girlie, so it didn't strike me as weird or sus when she didn't acknowledge what Sam said. Her breezing past the lie instead of calling it out felt like she was naturally placating him by letting him say whatever shit would make him feel better. And Benaiah didn't believe it either. Neither of them felt the need to justify themselves to Sam, because they both knew he was talking out the side of his neck. 💅🏾
Tbh it did feel weird she let him say it and she didn’t seem shocked by what he said or try to defend herself. There may be some truth to it but he has exaggerated it to make her look bad.
@@mannie8735 Doubt it's true honestly. From what we've seen on the show he's a typical nice guy, I'm not surprised if he lied about it, and Nicole being non-confrontational just let him go at it.
@mannie8735 nope she didn't want the drama. I said this before, I you look at that part you'll see her say no and give him a confused look, but he quickly talked over her, and kept repeating it for the cameras. This man was just looking for TV time
I dont think they are a situatuonship I just feel Ollie didn't want to admit it as well as Charollette Demi is loved they don't want to receive backlash
Even though it comes at the expense of not enough questions being asked, I like how the hosts are fun and playful but also seem to prioritize the mental health of the contestants over dragging out drama.
I’m so surprised Jasmine and Bobby turned out to be the star couple. everyone is conventionally attractive but they both met someone who wasn’t necessarily their type.
so Ollie got on Jessie Woo's podcast before the reunion aired and said Sharlotte was his other strong connection in the POD. She even left the experiment when Ollie broke up with her
I’m shocked that she didn’t refute it! That is a serious statement to agree to. They both had me believing it was true. I’m glad it wasn’t. I thought something was off about Ben and Nicole’s relationship but I’m glad I was wrong ❤
I take issue with Stephen saying the viewers and Sabrina perceived him as a perfect person. Clearly that's what he presented because Sabrina didn't get the edited show, she went off what was in front of her.
22:22 Actually Nicole did clarified it right away. I think it's due to editting it was not so obvious. Sam played the words. When he was talking to Nicole, he said she wanted to be physical and when he was talking to Benaya he said that Nicole wanted to sleep with him and he rejected. He said that knowing that he already got her confirmation on camera that she wanted to be physical with him. But in that part she clarified what being physical means to her: that is touchy, huggy person. That's how she express hers affection in relationships. And Sam and producers just did her dirty.
I felt Steven was lying about his ex with cancer because statistically, men are the ones who leave. I've also never heard of someone with cancer telling their partner to leave, tho I'm sure it does happen.
The fact that Sam was dragged through the mud & Cat gets a free pass to manipulate her partner & others is just absurd. Freddie deserves better than this narcissistic behaviour, when you're constantly walking on eggshells to appease your partner that's a big sign to GTFO. Their relationship just felt like pure trauma-bonding & Freddie trying to fix her, which again is a big mistake.
My thing is is this…she said she hadn’t seen Steven in 8 months. It’s been a year since the weddings. That means she traveled to London 7 times in 4 months and he only traveled twice!? Oh no no no no I would’ve left him too! And I round trip ticket is $40!!!
THANK YOU for bringing up Cat nearly crying. I watched so many reviews and you are the first one to mention Cat being two seconds away from dropping white woman tears and if she had I would have LOST IT!
honestly, they are so predictable at this point. Act in a foul way and then cry to get away with it smh. So embarrassingly weak in character, often lacking integrity.
Roxie, Nicole also mentioned that she told Sam that she didn’t want to go to Greece and explore their connection on their own but they didn’t really discuss that further. I’m sure she must have noticed Sam’s behaviour to that since I feel he was doing whatever he was doing to be on the show. Especially the “I think I love you” part.
I think Freddie is another people pleaser and I feel like when he cheated in the past, he likely was over the relationship. Still was wrong but despite his appearance, he very much seems like he gets walked over a lot in relationship. I love Freddie’s sister because she was like “don’t play with my brother sis.”
I’m starting to think so too, which is why we ALL got protective of him. He doesn’t want to be the bad guy. He almost appears innocent. I hope the show didn’t scar him for life!! We love you Freddie ❤
I think its the fact that he cheated in the past that has led him to people please to the extreme, I mean we saw just how badly cat took the news, he probably thought he didnt wanna lose someone because of a mistake from his past that he was clearly remourseful over
Sabrina said you didn't see me in 8 months! Can you imagine? They call it quits 4months after the wedding. I am so disappointed about Steven and he added we lost our sparkle! What? How old are you?
My thoughts exactly. You can make a dollar stretch way more in the UK than US. When I hear my family in UK say how much they spend on grocery I’m like what!? Here in Cad you can’t even get 2 paper bags of grocery for $100
Always love your reviews Roxiie! In terms of the disrespectful thing that Sam said at the mixer, I knew that Sam was lying. As you said, Nicole didn't want to make a scene in that moment. I could see the look of complete confusion on Nicole's face as he spoke. She also mentioned it wasn't about the physical but was about just any sort of reciprocation from him. So I guess he misinterpreted what she wanted and was just lying. Sometimes when ppl are so flabbergasted at a lie, they don't defend themselves, but I was sad Nicole didn't defend herself and I am SO happy the truth came out. Happy for all the happy couples!
Steven had sooooo many excuses for everything! I was so disappointed in him! I totally believe Sabrina…sad for her. I must admit I remember having a “hmmm🤔” moment when he told the ex with cancer story because something felt off…but I just brushed it under the rug, cuz I wanted to believe in Steven and Sabrina’s love story 😔
I actually believe Steven and I think Sabrina was laying it on a little thick to make him look bad. He seemed to be honest about them losing their spark and the distance, he mentioned something about his job which is his livelihood and also he said he was going through something. Idk. Their problems seem fixable but it looks like Sabrina completely resents him now so..
@@LeahJames616 She’s not “making him look bad” he is showing himself as an awful husband! Everything she mentioned was terrible of him to do or say! He didn’t treat their marriage respectfully.
As soon as the cast started giving pre reunion interviews, two things should have been clear: LIB UK contracts aren’t stringent enough. And nothing was likely to happen at the reunion. (One might say, “Oh, but what about Steven and Sabrina?”) To that I would say, if one was being observant, they could have clocked the demise of The Smiths back in the pods. They brushed over too much instead of nailing down everything. So, many of these couples never should have made it from beyond that wall. Advise to contestants for season two: See a therapist and have dealt with most of your issues before the show (or be actively dealing with them) Be authentically yourself, from start to finish. Ask serious future focused questions. Only apply if you truly want to find love and have been able to: Become attracted to someone over time Have dated and been in relationships with people who aren’t your “type” Don’t be afraid to leave the pods single. Be bold, be brave…. Follow your heart, but never forget to check in with your head, your family your friends and that therapist I mentioned. Otherwise: Live, laugh and get it on!
Right! I wondered why they didn't show the clip where she agreed she was moving to London...not that 50/50 of time in both. I think they have unresolved feelings/issues you could feel the heat. I might be in the minority but I do think Steven didn't go back and forth defending himself out of respect of airing all of his grievances on air.
I wanna know what Sharlotte has been going through the past few weeks that Ollie helped her so much with🧐 she barely had any screen time and definitely nothing for people to be coming at her about lol. But Ollie mentioned in his interview with Jesse Woo that Shar was his other connection and he had to break up with her on his bday as well. It just seemed like the mellow drama from her was to avoid the question😂
@@WilliamsPinch that i can understand. He also had to watch himself get dumped at the alter so I’m sure he’s had a time with it too. I would have liked for her to elaborate more either way
@21:00 Sam, Cat and Ollie are full of excuses about their respective behavior. Sam - I mix up my words, Cat - I'm adopted and been cheated on so I have abandonment issues. Ollie - I have ADHD and I mix up my words. Excuses only serve to hold you back from evolving to become a more self aware, responsible, better person.
Forgot to add... YOU Roxie! Are absolutely 💯 amazing and stunning!! So excited for your channel and it was the first I watched everything on! I am more excited for your recaps than the actual episodes and i watch the episodes so i just know what youre talking about, but your recaps are sooooo much the best best! ❤🎉❤🎉
I don’t think the UK budget was more than US. I think it’s just that things in the UK are cheaper. It’s the same with Ultimatum SA, things are cheaper in SA so you can make things stretch more.
I don't think it matters if Nicole did try to have sex with Sam or not, Sam was wrong to bring that up in public, outside the two of them anyway. That is a private thing between the two of them and it was a petty, vindictive them for him to throw that in Beniah's face. Sam was wrong, truth or lie, he was wrong. That's no gentleman. That's not a man.
Thanks Roxie, loved your comments. Honestly, I feel like they ran out of time. But, I feel the hosts did a great job and they will take the feedback into account! I’m also devastated about Sabrina and Steven. 😢
Katherine is a liar. She held on to that cheating like a baby with a bottle. The same way she can't let go of Ollie and Freddie's opinion of her about being bougie. I truly can't stand the woman.😤
Cat's one of those people who regularly engages in foul behaviour and gets away with it because of her appearance and "somewhat" soft spoken voice. She knows how to appear very likeable and people fall for it and totally ignore her conduct.
@@RoxiieSaysyou most certainly did! Cat needs to live in the Caribbean to have that attitude corrected swiftly. Big up from Antigua hun❤ you are doing such an amazing job!
Thats the difference between US and UK versions. The MINDFULNESS wrt mental health of the cast. While we all want all the villians feet to be held to the 🔥, the impact after the show on social media can be very disturbing.
10:38 Stevens friends said they never thought he’d be married. From that moment I knew it was going to end up being some problems in that. Plus while we the viewers for the edited version him and Sabrina was talking to each other unedited so that “portraying as perfect” don’t work as a reason
I’m not trying to be smart ass or something, English is not my first language and I’m trying to learn meanings to things. What does ”white girl tears” mean? Are those different to other tears?
@@ulricaandrae4381 I’m referring to the historical precedent of white women using their racial status in Western society to gain support as victims via tears or false statements of victimhood in order to have their wrong doings excused and to escape accountability for their actions. Often times, when white women are pressed regarding their racist actions/comments, they resort to a fake victimhood because they know their status as white women will be protected/prioritized over the effects of how they’ve harmed a minority, particularly black/brown minorities.
I was literally going to say the same thing. And how she got offended because he said his girlfriends haven’t looked like her. Typical white girl disbelief when they are not mens 1st preference. Not all of them, but the majority. They cannot help it, they’ve grown up in a world that has told them so for centuries, but that’s a whole other conversation. I actually wanted to see Charlotte and Freddie get together❤
@@ulricaandrae4381 White women tears have a long explanation but I'll try to keep it short. In the West, white women resort to tears in different situations because they are so often believed to be victims when they do it...I myself have seen many cases where a white woman was antagonising a woman of colour but the moment she was called out for it she burst into tears and the woman of colour ended up looking bad. This is what would have happened at the reunion with Demi and Cat if Cat was allowed to fully produce those dumb tears when Demi confronted her about her comment. Its funny how Cat didn't think of crying when she was running her mouth and saying what she said about Demi, neither was she bothered about the fact that her mouth (which she acknowledged could get her in trouble) was as sharp as a sword when insinuating that Demi was not good enough for Ollie, now all of a sudden at the reunion she wanted to act like a soft damsel in distress.... White women tears have been the reason countless people in the past have been killed (think Emmet Till), falsely imprisoned or the like. The interesting thing about it is many white women know that when they cry, they will immediately be believed and treated like victims even when they are the perpetrators. Below is a video of a white woman trying to weaponize her tears. This time It backfires though. ruclips.net/video/LFjxye6T4fk/видео.html Hope that explains it a little for you. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.
I wonder if they don't grill them as hard because of the whole mental health effects they're already dealing with by becoming public figures and not wanting to push them further
Most people want loving support when they are fighting for their lives. Some people have no support at all. That she dumped him to focus on her health didn't feel right to me. I would love to hear her side. I've heard of people walking away from a loved one battling cancer etc. And that must be equally hard.
@20:00 I like how protective and attentive Beniaha is with Nicole. Women always ask for these qualities but when they get them they complain. He knew she was upset after seeing who Sam ACTUALLY was when watching the show, so he was considering her feelings. We rarely see this from men, and so we don't give it the respect it deserves.
I forgot about After the Alter. I feel like after Seattle...Love is Blind USA was so bad they decided to get rid of it...but I hope they do a special on the couples for both countries. I'm obsessed with this show. Can't wait for a new season ❤
Everyone thought Benhaia was the broke one but it actually was Steven. Never judge a book from the cover
Good point. But I never thought that Ben was broke. Him saying he was "homeless" probably triggered some people. However, you cannot live his lifestyle without having money behind you.
As for Steven...........I never took much notice of Steven and Sabrina, so a lot went past me, but seeing him on the reunion makes me think he was another tight arse.
Benaiah does NOT look anything close to broke. I took one look at that man's long luscious, CLEAN well groomed hair and there's no way he can maintain that without money.
Add to that his well trimmed beard and nice simple but very meticulous clean fits and you can understand this man has money behind him. The way he also jokes about his "homelessness" also clearly demonstrates he's comfortable poking fun at himself probably because he knows he's very financially comfortable.
Structural Landscaper jobs range from $75,000 to upwards of $100,000 in some countries. So he is probably busy working on too many projects to be stationed in one place. And single for 11 years? Just working and building up his experience in that field. My boy probably got BANK and is in high demand. I guess it's not a popular enough profession and that's also probably why the salaries are so high.
Dude was never homeless. He house-sits his friends mansions. He went to boarding schools and his fam is hella wealthy.
@@stacyb-r6931 Some of these trade jobs have ridiculous earning potential
I love how highly Benaiah speaks of Nicole. I think that is beautiful to see and hear.
I felt like the Brits were so much more tolerable to watch than Americans. They are polite, self aware and willing to take accountability. It was refreshing.
I agree and they seemed more sincere so it make it less predictable unlike US! Way more complex personalities!
Some of them😅

I think they know who is getting dragged to filth. So they gave her a bone 🤷🏽♀️
@@ElohorB i hear you with that one, I agree
They didn’t want to pile on
And she kept interrupting Freddie 😡
They usually let women off easy. And I’m saying this as a woman.
It’s a female audience primarily, so I guess they don’t want to piss everyone off 😂
"You are a man of many words but not a man of your word." Like damn
Definitely a mic drop moment!
The Irish have a way with words 😅
😂😂😂😂
I’m gonna remember that description ‼️
I love how Beniah protects her. Nicole looked very distraught by the situation. I think she chose not to react because she doesn’t like confrontation. You can kind of tell that she’s a people pleaser because she was shaking.
I totally agree with this. Nicole was just too sweet to respond in the moment. She was totally caught off guard and didn't know how to go in on Sam about the lie he perpetrated.
The fact that they only gave 3 minutes for Cat and Freddie has me heated 😑😅😂
@karabog7460 Right!? They know that's what we were waiting for 😆. Same BS they did with Jimmy and Chelsea. Pissed me clean off, smh. Lol
I think they made a point of not getting into drama and just had the purpose getting relationship status updates.
I wanted some more T too but respect it. There are more info and details in the podd casts.
The hosts being tame was a tactical decision for the Uk. Uk production companies are under a lot of pressure to take people’s mental health into consideration. In the last few years several reality tv stars have taken their lives because of the backlash from the public. It was them doing their due diligence. The reunion really needed to be 2 hours for Emma and Matt to ask more questions. They were trying to keep in time. Emma is used to hosting live tv so she was being a time keeper for sure 🤣
I think they did a great job hosting but I would've appreciated that extra time to do some follow ups to the cast's responses.
Like Roxiie said: If Ollie knew that they were planning on/leaning towards "no", what were the theatrics for?
Catherine: You just said "yes, I'm snappy" but I didn't hear an apology to Freddie for how you treated him throughout the season. Did you?
Catherine: Have you gone to counseling yet to deal with your abandonment issues?
Demi: How did you feel seeing Ollie's outward expressions of attraction on camera?
Sharlotte: what do you mean he helped you get through the last few weeks?
Freddie: What prompted you to ask Cat if she would be okay with leaving your estate to your family? Can you see how that conversation may have been a blow to her faith in the relationship?
Steven: 8 months??? How is it that you haven't seen Sabrina in 8 months?
Steven: If you don't like to use the phone and couldn't be in person, what did you think you were doing to nurture the relationship?
Steven and Sabrina: It was shown on your wedding day that both of you had different expectations about day-to-day living. Had you set a travel schedule in advance? Hearing how Bobby made the decision to move for his marriage, did either of you discuss moving to the other's hometown in the same way?
Tom & Maria: We could tell that you both had different expectations of partnership based on your conversations in the pods. What didn't we see/hear that explains why you agreed to move forward anyway?
Tom: Why did say "I promise" to Maria's mom if you weren't sure you would be with her?
Tom & Maria: did Tom introduce Maria to his mom off-camera?
Sam: why???
Sam: if you didn't know for certain that you loved Nicole, why did you propose at all?
Sam: You said a lot of words but your words mean nothing (s/o to Sabrina). What was the point in telling multiple people that Nicole tried to sleep at you? What was your goal?
Benaiah and Nicole: how are y'all the cutest?! Nicole, how have you adjusted to the nomadic life?
That is a really good point about them taking their mental health into consideration! That makes sense on why they don’t ask the juicy questions or let them rip each other apart, cause they would l🩸🩸🩸Sam was definitely the villain of the season but, I did feel concern for him when he left the stage. 😢
@@msbrownsugaI would like to hear them answer all them questions. 😂 The definitely needed two hours.
Yeah previous Love island UK contestants have unalived themselves after the show so they don't want to make that mistakes in future reality shows
@@CremeBrulee-qm8wi yes, I love tea too but at the end of the day these are still real people. Sabrina mentioned in a podcast that she was dismissed with depression and was on medication after the show so honestly they couldn’t let them rip each other apart for safe guarding reasons if nothing else. Those wounds were still very raw. To go deeper on other wishing they needed more than 1 hour
25:19 Freddie didn’t say much during their segment but his eyes said EVERYTHING when Demi was talking to Cat about accountability ☕️
Yes, even he knew she was being rude he even nodded when Demi told Cat that she should had concentrated on her connection in the pods.
I think they are mindful of the drama and the impact of the situations on the casts mental health…
@@vaanda9446 Yep, which is a good thing even if we miss a bit of drama. Also, the cast's families were in the audience so it woulda be awkward for them to be fully honest in answers to hard questions 😅
But they didn’t even ask the rest of the single people if they were involved or not and other basic questions the public would want to know.
No no no. The reason why people like Cat get away with things is because no one holds them accountable for their behavior. She immediately went to tears when demi confronted her. DEMIs mental health was hurt. FREDDIES mental health was hurt. Hold Cat accountable for her actions. It's not an attack.
I didn't feel bad for Steven and Sabrina because they didn't figure it out in the first place. They kept saying "ohhhhh we're gonna do ABC and figure it out later"
I completely agree, but there's a way to hold someone accountable respectfully, and it could help if they explain their side and clear the air. It may actually be worse to not address because viewers will maintain their negative perception of that person. I also wonder if cast members just refuse to talk about certain things that are shown 🤔.
Steven's story about his breakup with his ex that had cancer left me bewildered. I thought i was the only one that noticed holes in his story. I don't think he was being completely honest before and he isn't being honest about his break up with Sabrina now :)
@@BFord-dn7ju what were the holes? I did not notice. Dish the goss. 😆
He also said that Sabrina told lies, but didn't specify what they were, which was suspect. At least Sabrina came with receipts.
@@MammaMaisel215a terminally ill person will only leave you if you are more a chore than a help. That was the first thing. Second, he didn’t even know how she was doing 3) the whole story was setup to make him look like the victim. How are you the victim in a story where a woman has cancer? Also. It was set up like the girl died. All of the above told me all i needed to know from jump. I never trusted him.
@@pearlosibu Yes to all of this. I had the same thought process when he brought it up. Was he trying to get sympathy by playing the victim when your partner is the one with cancer? I'm glad @roxiiesays mentioned it but I hope someone will go down that rabbit hole for me lol
18:05 sweetie is Sam was close enough Beniah looks like he might’ve still thrown hands at this reunion
I'm really happy Benaiah and Nicole are still together 😊 and I'm very proud of Demi standing her ground and loving herself as she is 👏🏽👏🏽
Yup!!!
THANK YOU!!!! Someone FINALLY called it!!! 🗣️ “Cat calmed down when she saw that house!!!!” I knew I wasn’t trippin! 😅
Loll she was like “…..hmmm I can get jiggy with this! 👀” 😂
Noticed that as well.
Yes, I saw that too!!! She is triflin', a hot mess 🙄☕️
I was confused too at Nicole’s reaction to Sam allegations, but I think it was shock. Her body language at their first meeting spoke VOLUMES. There was no way she was trying to sleep with that man.
I think Freddie is just the guy we thought he was. Just a kind sweet guy. I’m sure he was shocked by the amount of hate Cat got and ALL the love he got and seeing his character I don’t think that’d bring him glee. I’m sure he decided within himself Pre reunion to not do too much to her. He’s honestly too sweet for this kinda show and Cat got fvcking lucky cause another man would have draggedddd ger
Yeah she got off light
@@dalubuhlengwenya7188 I think you’re right and honestly, it just makes us love Freddie more! Even when Cat tried to take a LITTLE accountability, it wasn’t satisfying. Freddie deserves more validation than that.
You're absolutely right. If it's any consolation, there will be women lining up in droves trying to date Freddie after this. He is truly a sweetheart and a genuinely decent and loving person. I really hope he meets someone who reciprocates that with him because he so deserves it after the trauma of being belittled and verbally abused by Cat (good name for her).
@@dearbh1736 hahaha that “Don’t hug me” at the end was giving a Cat screeching with its claws lol
Nichole is soft spoken, very demure and Sam took advantage of that!
Yes, Roxy thank you for talking about the way Cat treated her father when he tried to comfort her such a strong contrast to Demi and her dad.
Cat is also adopted which makes it even worse
I have a feeling that when Netflix wants to reuse a cast member, they take it easy on them in these reunions. Examples: Jessica, Micah, Shayne.... Cat should've been asked ALL the questions!
📌
But also the UK is going more gentle on reality TV stars in general.
London to Belfast flights start at $40. The train is 60. He would be staying with her not hotel needed what can he not afford? Steven is a bait and switch.
Catherine's parents have spoilt her and allowed her to walk all over them because they adopted her. I didn't like the way she treated her Dad when he was trying desperately to reassure her before the alter scene. She acted like he was a mere annoyance to her. Freddie shouldn't try to stay friends with her at all, he deserves way better. Well done to Betsy for speaking out before the alter scene, yes scene.
All I had been hearing how her adoption affected her life and relationships, i don’t care about her stupid and pathetic adoption, she’s a basket case and a bad person.
Beniah and Nicole's unseen clip just made everything make sense how excited Ben was when Nicole met him and why he took her back so easily and I really belive now he eas a mess after she had said no in the pods. I'm hlad Nicole made it clear Sam lied. Because her reaction when she saw him never indicated that she had physical interest in him. Also Nicole looked way to confused during the mixer when Sam said that.
Nicole looked immediately disappointed when she saw Sam so it never made sense that she made any moves on him 🤮
If Nicole has a history of trauma then she might react to gaslighting by freezing.
@@MammaMaisel215 definitely possible!
I'm the same way. I just freeze and get bulldozed ☠️
The hosts did Freddie dirty. They wanted to ask about the stupid earrings but nothing about Cath’s bd attitude.
1000% justice for Freddy
@@pearlosibu exactly!!!
I’m happy my original ship flourished. I loved Ben and Nicole together. When they first met I thought damn these people speak the same language if you get what I mean. I boohoo cried at their wedding and I had no doubts they’d be together at the reunion. Nicole was cackling at every scene with Ben, she lovessss that man and he lovvesssss her. When they showed that first reaction I boo-hoo cried more. So happy for her for following her heart and Ben being a forgiving person and not being caught up in this “2nd choice” thing people always talking about. What’s yours will always come back to you, that’s my opinion on that.
Yes, I was so glad when they came back to each other. They both owned up to the part they played in the beginning and that accountability has allowed them to flourish. I wish them many, many happy years together.
I feel the same way. When they met up after she ended it with Sam and they were wearing the same types of bracelets, they're both hippies/nomads 😅
I really like Ben and Nicole together and now it clicks why he was so defensive of her. He is more of the firecracker and Nicole is more meek so he feels the need to protect. Maybe they will learn from each other.
not nicole and ben "frolicking in the woods" lmao! i'm dead!
I love Demi! She reacted like all of us: “Sam, say I’m sorry to Nicole, please, it was disrespectful”
Frfr
I love how single Demie is the star of the season ❤️
@@Tina25390 Right?!? Love it! ✨💕
She seemed salty in her recent interview but kept it classy. Sounds like Jasmine is besties with Sharlotte and they excluded Demi at a gathering. She said she's left all of the group chats.
@@joanna0988 whaaaaat omg which interview did she say that?
@@Tina25390 Interview with Will Njobvu. Watch also his interview with Jasmine and Bobby. Jasmine talks abkut their distance too.
@@Tina25390 she has a side to her. I’m not so sure about her…
Really glad that Demi called Sam out. I don't know why, but Cat still feels so fake to me. So happy for the two couples that are still together, that moment when they showed their reaction at the end of Nicole an Benaiah's first pod date was SO sweet (I teared up a bit)
Anyway, Roxiie girl, what are we going to watch next?😮
For real what’s next 😅
You crack me up!!
Hey Steven:
"Christmas comes at the same time every year!!" 😂😅😂
I did NOT see that drama coming with Steven and Sabrina… 👀 I guess they saved all the tea for after the altar 🫖 Also Demi was not holding back - the way she went in on Sippy Cup Sam 🤣
I think Nicole did react to Sam’s comment… they just gave her a bad edit to dramatize this situation.
I agree. In the original episode he said he wanted to take things slow and she said so did I. He kept over talking her too. In general people sometimes stop listening when they hear something that seems like "tea".
Nicole confirmed this at the reunion live show taping - podcaster aunties said she paused waiting for him to dig himself a deeper hole. Production edited out her response completely to imply she agreed what he was sayin. #liessamtells
@@kalindazimba1854 that’s why I was confused! I did say in a previous video that it’s possible that her response was edited out. I’d be pissed if I was her. Thankfully it all got cleared up!
Demi looked beautiful, all of the women did. I'm happy to see her embracing her beauty. Unfortunately still not a fan of Catherine and it's surprising her and Sam didn't try to get together. Ben &Nicole...bravo ❤! Nick & Vanessa should take note from the UK host.
Also love your channel!
I noticed Nicole tearing up and hiding her face during her segment. I was so frustrated for her for feeling the stress of the Sam Lies
Cat guessed that Ollie was black. So she climbed on her preference pedestal. The arrogance and entitlement that social media has given to the Catherines of this world is off the charts.
True, which was also why she said that Demi (being mixed and bigger) wouldn't be his type.
Entitlement is the ugliest trait ever in a person, especially someone to marry. But to even go on these shows you'd almost have to have that in spades.
To be fair he is biracial NOT black he has a whole white mum soooo! One thing biracial ppl will do is pair up with none blk ppl.
Makes no sense because black guys like mixed women and that’s never a question
@@TennisBarbie119 Except in this case both Ollie and Demi were mixed race.
Im not surprised sam showed up. This is what he always wanted- airtime.
Steven.. WHY 😩😭😭??? I belived in you lol
They needed couples therapy😢
@@robynp8743how would they have done that when Steven won’t text or call? This was on him
@@stephyworld8713 right?!? 😩😩
@@stephyworld8713 Same! I should have known he was too good to be true. Why would a man that looks like that, with his shit and finances together, owns a gym, is kind and outgoing, be single at 38?
I don’t want to sound jaded, and while it is possible, they are unicorns or like a friend of mine used to say ‘purple squirrels’😂.
Steven has reminded me to remember not to project my fantasies onto men based on how they come across. Goodbye Steven FOREVER!! 😔
She said she applied to the show. Netflix recruited him.
I KNEW Sam was full of it. I didn't believe Nicole tried to sleep with Sam for ONE SECOND! Nicole seems like a non-confrontational girlie, so it didn't strike me as weird or sus when she didn't acknowledge what Sam said. Her breezing past the lie instead of calling it out felt like she was naturally placating him by letting him say whatever shit would make him feel better. And Benaiah didn't believe it either. Neither of them felt the need to justify themselves to Sam, because they both knew he was talking out the side of his neck. 💅🏾
Tbh it did feel weird she let him say it and she didn’t seem shocked by what he said or try to defend herself. There may be some truth to it but he has exaggerated it to make her look bad.
@@mannie8735 Doubt it's true honestly. From what we've seen on the show he's a typical nice guy, I'm not surprised if he lied about it, and Nicole being non-confrontational just let him go at it.
@mannie8735 nope she didn't want the drama. I said this before, I you look at that part you'll see her say no and give him a confused look, but he quickly talked over her, and kept repeating it for the cameras. This man was just looking for TV time
Ngl Roxiie has some of the best love is blind commentary online.
Sharlotte being Ollie's situationship is so sad
why? they dated in the pods its just wasn’t shown.
@@petitelune5284 yeah but does she deserve to be a situationship? She can't even explain what they are and neither can he
Yea… that response form both of them was like… yea they’re just smashing 😂
I dont think they are a situatuonship I just feel Ollie didn't want to admit it as well as Charollette Demi is loved they don't want to receive backlash
Lmao no. If not they wouldn't have mentioned it at all. @ramonaflowers2813
Even though it comes at the expense of not enough questions being asked, I like how the hosts are fun and playful but also seem to prioritize the mental health of the contestants over dragging out drama.
I’m so surprised Jasmine and Bobby turned out to be the star couple. everyone is conventionally attractive but they both met someone who wasn’t necessarily their type.
That’s how you know they truly came for the concept of the show. Blind love. I mean it does help that they are both easy on the eyes 😅
I think Nicole and Benny are the star couple lol. Jason and Bobby are kinda boring like Brett and Tiff.
@@WilliamsPinchthank god somebody said it. I really don’t care for B&T even though i feel like I’m supposed to 😃
@@WilliamsPinch Jason and Bobby?
Almost the only couple lol
so Ollie got on Jessie Woo's podcast before the reunion aired and said Sharlotte was his other strong connection in the POD. She even left the experiment when Ollie broke up with her
Yup! That was a good interview.
Knowing that makes his reaction to her less slimy but still he never showed that energy for Demi 🥴
I didnt believe Sam when he said Nicole tried to sleep with him. Nicole is bad at vocalizing and just wanted to get things over with
I’m shocked that she didn’t refute it! That is a serious statement to agree to. They both had me believing it was true. I’m glad it wasn’t. I thought something was off about Ben and Nicole’s relationship but I’m glad I was wrong ❤
@@zahararay5611 I understand
She looked like a deer in headlights, I've been in that situation where someone is just blatantly lying to my face and I can't respond in the moment 😩
@@joanna0988 yesss because wtf is going on?? why are you saying that??
I take issue with Stephen saying the viewers and Sabrina perceived him as a perfect person. Clearly that's what he presented because Sabrina didn't get the edited show, she went off what was in front of her.
Right!! So he was just pretending then?! 👀🤷🏽♀️
@@RoxiieSays If so he's a great actor
can we talk about how Demi beautifully put Sam in his place? Mic drop, chef's kiss 👌 you name it, it was awesome!
Right?! 😩
22:22 Actually Nicole did clarified it right away. I think it's due to editting it was not so obvious.
Sam played the words. When he was talking to Nicole, he said she wanted to be physical and when he was talking to Benaya he said that Nicole wanted to sleep with him and he rejected. He said that knowing that he already got her confirmation on camera that she wanted to be physical with him. But in that part she clarified what being physical means to her: that is touchy, huggy person. That's how she express hers affection in relationships. And Sam and producers just did her dirty.
"It remains complicated." they smashed.
That’s not the complicated part lol
@@WilliamsPinch it makes things complicated
I felt Steven was lying about his ex with cancer because statistically, men are the ones who leave. I've also never heard of someone with cancer telling their partner to leave, tho I'm sure it does happen.
Good point. HE was probably the one who left, unilaterally.
I think he was such a chore he made the cancer harder
Ya and the fact that he had no idea what her health was like now was crazy when Sabrina asked him
The fact that Sam was dragged through the mud & Cat gets a free pass to manipulate her partner & others is just absurd. Freddie deserves better than this narcissistic behaviour, when you're constantly walking on eggshells to appease your partner that's a big sign to GTFO. Their relationship just felt like pure trauma-bonding & Freddie trying to fix her, which again is a big mistake.
I can't lie I was a bit disappointed with the overall result, missed opportunities for a lot of questions.😭😭😭😭😭😭
@@TJMasie44 yea same!
@@RoxiieSays Actually looking forward to the after alter episode(s). Hopefully we’ll get more juice!🥹🫶🏾
My thing is is this…she said she hadn’t seen Steven in 8 months. It’s been a year since the weddings. That means she traveled to London 7 times in 4 months and he only traveled twice!? Oh no no no no I would’ve left him too! And I round trip ticket is $40!!!
THANK YOU for bringing up Cat nearly crying. I watched so many reviews and you are the first one to mention Cat being two seconds away from dropping white woman tears and if she had I would have LOST IT!
honestly, they are so predictable at this point. Act in a foul way and then cry to get away with it smh. So embarrassingly weak in character, often lacking integrity.
Roxie, Nicole also mentioned that she told Sam that she didn’t want to go to Greece and explore their connection on their own but they didn’t really discuss that further. I’m sure she must have noticed Sam’s behaviour to that since I feel he was doing whatever he was doing to be on the show. Especially the “I think I love you” part.
I like that she tested him like that and didn't try to force the connection.
I think Freddie is another people pleaser and I feel like when he cheated in the past, he likely was over the relationship. Still was wrong but despite his appearance, he very much seems like he gets walked over a lot in relationship. I love Freddie’s sister because she was like “don’t play with my brother sis.”
I’m starting to think so too, which is why we ALL got protective of him. He doesn’t want to be the bad guy. He almost appears innocent. I hope the show didn’t scar him for life!! We love you Freddie ❤
Yeah he seems like he does anything to please a women. Women like Catherine he needs to stay away from.
I think its the fact that he cheated in the past that has led him to people please to the extreme, I mean we saw just how badly cat took the news, he probably thought he didnt wanna lose someone because of a mistake from his past that he was clearly remourseful over
Sabrina said you didn't see me in 8 months! Can you imagine? They call it quits 4months after the wedding. I am so disappointed about Steven and he added we lost our sparkle! What? How old are you?
Nicole is so peaceful and sovereign. She didn’t feel the need to straighten Sam, out.
the budgets are the same you just get A LOT MORE for your money in the UK because we aren't willing to spend a lot
My thoughts exactly. You can make a dollar stretch way more in the UK than US. When I hear my family in UK say how much they spend on grocery I’m like what!? Here in Cad you can’t even get 2 paper bags of grocery for $100
@@dalubuhlengwenya7188 They're robbing us blind in Canada. I paid $13 for 4 apples last week 😡😡
I started laughing when you said "I'm gonna need to see some form of shelter" 😄😵. And I was so sad to see Sabrina and Stephen fighting.
Lolll something! Anything! And yea I’m sad about Steven and Sabrina 😔
Always love your reviews Roxiie! In terms of the disrespectful thing that Sam said at the mixer, I knew that Sam was lying. As you said, Nicole didn't want to make a scene in that moment. I could see the look of complete confusion on Nicole's face as he spoke. She also mentioned it wasn't about the physical but was about just any sort of reciprocation from him. So I guess he misinterpreted what she wanted and was just lying. Sometimes when ppl are so flabbergasted at a lie, they don't defend themselves, but I was sad Nicole didn't defend herself and I am SO happy the truth came out. Happy for all the happy couples!
Bobby posted Jasmine's mom taking care of his face, a sweet gesture i guess...they are really close actually 😚😚
Or PR 😅
He lets her run their marriage 😂 so she’s good.
@@WilliamsPinch bahaha exactly
Steven had sooooo many excuses for everything! I was so disappointed in him! I totally believe Sabrina…sad for her.
I must admit I remember having a “hmmm🤔” moment when he told the ex with cancer story because something felt off…but I just brushed it under the rug, cuz I wanted to believe in Steven and Sabrina’s love story 😔
I actually believe Steven and I think Sabrina was laying it on a little thick to make him look bad.
He seemed to be honest about them losing their spark and the distance, he mentioned something about his job which is his livelihood and also he said he was going through something.
Idk. Their problems seem fixable but it looks like Sabrina completely resents him now so..
@@LeahJames616 She’s not “making him look bad” he is showing himself as an awful husband! Everything she mentioned was terrible of him to do or say! He didn’t treat their marriage respectfully.
You do not give up on your MARRIAGE because of "losing SPARK". That is shit that teenagers say not full grown men.
I knew better than to fall asleep! Thanks for this wonderful, funny and fresh season! 🎉❤
The reunions never hold the cast fully accountable for their crazy actions and words hey. But otherwise loved the video❤🎉
As soon as the cast started giving pre reunion interviews, two things should have been clear:
LIB UK contracts aren’t stringent enough.
And nothing was likely to happen at the reunion.
(One might say, “Oh, but what about Steven and Sabrina?”)
To that I would say, if one was being observant, they could have clocked the demise of The Smiths back in the pods. They brushed over too much instead of nailing down everything.
So, many of these couples never should have made it from beyond that wall.
Advise to contestants for season two:
See a therapist and have dealt with most of your issues before the show (or be actively dealing with them)
Be authentically yourself, from start to finish.
Ask serious future focused questions.
Only apply if you truly want to find love and have been able to:
Become attracted to someone over time
Have dated and been in relationships with people who aren’t your “type”
Don’t be afraid to leave the pods single.
Be bold, be brave…. Follow your heart, but never forget to check in with your head, your family your friends and that therapist I mentioned.
Otherwise: Live, laugh and get it on!
Great comment!!
Why did they not talk about Sam’s “beggars can’t be choosers “ remark when he was dumped by Jasmine? 🤔
24:43 the Wild Thornberries! What a call back. 90’s -early 2000’s tv was so good.
The way I lovedddd that show!!! 😩😂
Steven and Sabrina never had a fight or disagreement during the show...so I was wondering how that would go in the 'real world'.... 😬
First thing is she changed her mind about moving to London. I think it's part of why he proposed. Long distance ain't easy.
Right! I wondered why they didn't show the clip where she agreed she was moving to London...not that 50/50 of time in both. I think they have unresolved feelings/issues you could feel the heat. I might be in the minority but I do think Steven didn't go back and forth defending himself out of respect of airing all of his grievances on air.
Welcome to England I am not surprised about Steven.
I didn't pay S & S much attention tbh, why aren't you surprised about Steven?
Yeah please elaborate 😗
What does that mean?
Thank you for this season and the recap it was hilarious! ❤
Thank you so so sooooo much, Tiffany!!! ✨💕✨💕✨
I wanna know what Sharlotte has been going through the past few weeks that Ollie helped her so much with🧐 she barely had any screen time and definitely nothing for people to be coming at her about lol. But Ollie mentioned in his interview with Jesse Woo that Shar was his other connection and he had to break up with her on his bday as well. It just seemed like the mellow drama from her was to avoid the question😂
If she felt like she loved Ollie in the pods, she had to watch him be engaged to someone else.
I screamed this at the tv! 🤣 I am with you 100%
@@WilliamsPinch that i can understand. He also had to watch himself get dumped at the alter so I’m sure he’s had a time with it too. I would have liked for her to elaborate more either way

She loved him. She had to watch his connection with Demi. And also watch Ollie be misunderstood.
I really liked your recap and comments. Freddie looked so sad, I agree. I’m so sad for him.
@21:00 Sam, Cat and Ollie are full of excuses about their respective behavior. Sam - I mix up my words, Cat - I'm adopted and been cheated on so I have abandonment issues. Ollie - I have ADHD and I mix up my words. Excuses only serve to hold you back from evolving to become a more self aware, responsible, better person.
Tait & Roxiie, king & queen of LIB reviews😂❤
Yess they're the 2 that I watch!
Yes I watch Tait too, and Tami Talks!
Not the "dunnn" and zoom in on Ollie's tongue 😂 You were right! It gives him away everytime lol
looks like Emma and Matt Willis were being super careful to avoid anything close to the Caroline Flack story

I don’t think the UK budget was more than US. I think it’s just that things in the UK are cheaper. It’s the same with Ultimatum SA, things are cheaper in SA so you can make things stretch more.
I'd say that things are more expensive in the UK generally than the US. However, the programme budget is probably a different matter........
Your Ollie "why" impression was spot on 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
I don't think it matters if Nicole did try to have sex with Sam or not, Sam was wrong to bring that up in public, outside the two of them anyway. That is a private thing between the two of them and it was a petty, vindictive them for him to throw that in Beniah's face. Sam was wrong, truth or lie, he was wrong. That's no gentleman. That's not a man.
6:42 Sharlotte and Ollie make sense not just because of appearance but also learning that they had a connection in the pods that wasn’t shown on tv.
Definitely!
Thanks Roxie, loved your comments. Honestly, I feel like they ran out of time. But, I feel the hosts did a great job and they will take the feedback into account! I’m also devastated about Sabrina and Steven. 😢
Katherine is a liar. She held on to that cheating like a baby with a bottle. The same way she can't let go of Ollie and Freddie's opinion of her about being bougie.
I truly can't stand the woman.😤
Yea, they didn’t even ask Cat about her dirty flirting with Sam. 😒 just started the video, I hope you noticed that 😫
Cat's one of those people who regularly engages in foul behaviour and gets away with it because of her appearance and "somewhat" soft spoken voice. She knows how to appear very likeable and people fall for it and totally ignore her conduct.
@@Scoutbq1l crazy, true.
I did! I mentioned it at the end lol

I don’t believe a word that comes out of Cath’s and Sam’s mouth. Those two are cold hearted snakes. Honestly! They didn’t deserve our time.
Thats the difference between US and UK versions. The MINDFULNESS wrt mental health of the cast. While we all want all the villians feet to be held to the 🔥, the impact after the show on social media can be very disturbing.
Social media is the judge, jury and executioner and will
Hold Catherine accountable for being such a nasty piece of work.
10:38 Stevens friends said they never thought he’d be married. From that moment I knew it was going to end up being some problems in that.
Plus while we the viewers for the edited version him and Sabrina was talking to each other unedited so that “portraying as perfect” don’t work as a reason
So true!!
I KNEW Catherine would whip out some white girl tears. It’s like a pit maneuver to immediately become the victim.
I’m not trying to be smart ass or something, English is not my first language and I’m trying to learn meanings to things.
What does ”white girl tears” mean? Are those different to other tears?
@@ulricaandrae4381 I’m referring to the historical precedent of white women using their racial status in Western society to gain support as victims via tears or false statements of victimhood in order to have their wrong doings excused and to escape accountability for their actions. Often times, when white women are pressed regarding their racist actions/comments, they resort to a fake victimhood because they know their status as white women will be protected/prioritized over the effects of how they’ve harmed a minority, particularly black/brown minorities.
Google it.
I was literally going to say the same thing. And how she got offended because he said his girlfriends haven’t looked like her.
Typical white girl disbelief when they are not mens 1st preference.
Not all of them, but the majority.
They cannot help it, they’ve grown up in a world that has told them so for centuries, but that’s a whole other conversation.
I actually wanted to see Charlotte and Freddie get together❤
@@ulricaandrae4381 White women tears have a long explanation but I'll try to keep it short. In the West, white women resort to tears in different situations because they are so often believed to be victims when they do it...I myself have seen many cases where a white woman was antagonising a woman of colour but the moment she was called out for it she burst into tears and the woman of colour ended up looking bad.
This is what would have happened at the reunion with Demi and Cat if Cat was allowed to fully produce those dumb tears when Demi confronted her about her comment. Its funny how Cat didn't think of crying when she was running her mouth and saying what she said about Demi, neither was she bothered about the fact that her mouth (which she acknowledged could get her in trouble) was as sharp as a sword when insinuating that Demi was not good enough for Ollie, now all of a sudden at the reunion she wanted to act like a soft damsel in distress....
White women tears have been the reason countless people in the past have been killed (think Emmet Till), falsely imprisoned or the like. The interesting thing about it is many white women know that when they cry, they will immediately be believed and treated like victims even when they are the perpetrators. Below is a video of a white woman trying to weaponize her tears. This time It backfires though.

Hope that explains it a little for you. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.
I wonder if they don't grill them as hard because of the whole mental health effects they're already dealing with by becoming public figures and not wanting to push them further
i live for your vids! your reaction of sabrina and steven was soooo on point
Most people want loving support when they are fighting for their lives. Some people have no support at all. That she dumped him to focus on her health didn't feel right to me. I would love to hear her side. I've heard of people walking away from a loved one battling cancer etc. And that must be equally hard.
So happy you dropped this video so soon! Love you, girl!
But why were you proposing? You took the words out my mouth 😂. The foolery.
😂😂
The Steven and Sabrina situation was a major curve ball. Threw me for a loop.
when they brought up cat's fear of cheaters, they should have inserted a clip of her flirting with Sam. 😒
Oop!!!! 👀😂
@@RoxiieSays 😂
Was cool to hear your name brought up on Taits Take❤Thank you for this vid! It was a great watch! Love ya Roxiie!!
Tait is my guy!! Thanks you for always showing luv, Tammy!! I appreciate you! 💕💕💕💕💕
@@RoxiieSays of course!!
@20:00 I like how protective and attentive Beniaha is with Nicole. Women always ask for these qualities but when they get them they complain. He knew she was upset after seeing who Sam ACTUALLY was when watching the show, so he was considering her feelings. We rarely see this from men, and so we don't give it the respect it deserves.
I forgot about After the Alter. I feel like after Seattle...Love is Blind USA was so bad they decided to get rid of it...but I hope they do a special on the couples for both countries. I'm obsessed with this show. Can't wait for a new season ❤
Agreed!
