Gina's father is alleged to be Cuban although his surname is Reid.... not very Hispanic! Mother is Jamaican.

Gina's natural accent is probably nearer to that of her (now) ex-bf Ecksell/Edwin.

Absolutely not.

You sound like you have a big chip on your shoulder!

Gina just tweeted that she is surrounding herself with "NICE genuine people", and she also retweeted a girl who called Ecksell controlling.

Get over it. No one cares anymore if she's wealthy or not. Seriously what does her break up and Sam have to do with her money. I think you were the only one that didn't get the memo. NO ONE CARES ANYMORE. She was a great housemate, all this fake and real crap is just annoying. Do you not believe it because she is black, or because she's not the way you envision rich people. Break all your sterotypes of what rich or poor people are like.

No, most of us don't believe her "wealth" because "Gina Rio" is a character who until recently lived in a Council Flat in public records and identified by neighbors. She also claims to have not even eaten pub food, ridden a train or ridden a bus - when her mother tells the press she tried to stop her from leaving in her "cab" when she was going to Big Brother. Moreover, her former band manager said she was such a good actress she got into a band when she could not even sing.

The reason people still talk about her "wealth" is that Gina did not create a rich character. She created an over-the-top MEGA-RICH character. It has NOTHING to do with racism, and Gina would not be a good example to change people's opinions of the rich stereotype. She has created exactly that - RICH STEREOTYPE (as she sees it - she's gotten some things wrong...Ferrero Roche...lack of stories about a posh education...not being able to describe her flash 4 storey home in Kings Cross.)

I do think that racism has EVERYTHING to do with the Gina Rio character Georgina Shant'e Reid has created. The appearance of wealth would probably mean that Gina no longer experienced racism when she entered top hot spots.

Gina Rio is a great character, and Gina Rio is wealthy. It's Georgina Shant'e Reid that is a normal girl who created a great character that some people believe is real. In reality, Gina Rio is more like a mega-rich version of Georgina.

You seem to be under the impression that people think Gina is fake because she's black?

Where have you been mate? She lives in a council flat and wears cheap clothes, posh/rich she is not.

Didn't care enough to read how the world is shattered because Gina or Georgina lied about her wealth. The world is over.

My post was in response to your accusation against another poster that they were racist for thinking that Gina was not rich.

The person you accused was not racist, they were just not naive.

The world isn't ending because of the "Gina Rio" character, but you shouldn't pull a page out of Gina's playbook with her former band members and Jemima by accusing someone so casually of racism - just because they don't turn a blind eye to the mountain of evidence showing that Gina has very humble roots.

I think that is far more likely than hooking up with Sam.

I wonder what will happen next.

Don't think she is romantically attracted to Dexter nor he to her, although they are very fond of each other.

When they left SH and returned Gina actually was quick to 're-assure' Sam she was not romantically involved with Dexter which struck me as odd as she had barely spoken to Sam at that point. Sam seemed very eager to know the nature of Ginxter and I thought 'why do you care?'. Looking back the signs were there...

The only "thing" that D&G have is a business relationship which appears to be being nurtured by Ch5. Think rumoured "Ginxter Reality Show", still in the offing.
