...hmmm an awkward interview...I hope that he takes time to learn about his own typical behaviour and how it directly effects others in his life/their emotions and lives etc.... before he thinks about a relationship with someone, let alone an engagement...

[hot2go]

Just watched his interview....still think the same, I really like the bloke....I liked how he didn't regret his fun with Laura he only regretted that it upset people he cares about...he didn't just dismiss her and make her look rubbish or cheap ...or blame her....he never shows resentment and i like that about him.
I also like that he put his hands up and admitted he took it too far....I feel sorry for his ex but he had consulted her before accepting the opportunity to enter the house and she did say he could enjoy himself while he was in there....I don't think it's completely either of them fully to blame...obv they had different interpretations of what her hall pass was..
At least he asked her if it was ok before he went on the show....if she has sold a story to the press then she didn't ask him if it was ok because she would know that it would never be ok....that is a big a deal breaker for him as what he did is a deal breaker for her.
Don't know why Philip Scofeild is reading stuff Marco is supposed to have said in the press when he's got the real person sitting in front of him that will give him a more real unedited version....Schofield likes to corner people and play Judge Philip, he did same thing recently to Noel Edmunds but he want so keen when it was being done to him two years ago after his monumental cock up with David Cameron.

Feel a bit sorry for him tbh. He's not a bad person, just very misguided.

..or not guided at all at the time that he needed those boundaries most, maybe..

[Vanessa]

Can't wait to see him on BOTS. Anyway, he's still young and still has his whole life ahead of him. Good luck to him in whatever he decides to do

True, what guidance do kids ever get from a mother that would sell stories about them to the press...I thought he would be more manic but he was very calm and mature in the interview..

Very different behaviour compared to Stephanie Davies who left the house in similar circumstances earlier in the year....
She went on TV and laughed at the person she had hurt and tried to discredit him ...while never once taking responsibility or showing any remorse at all for betraying and humiliating her fiancé while his family, his friends and 2 million viewers watched.
I thought Marco took it in the chin and was very professional in his interview

Exactly It's not to absolve him of responsibility but if you grow up without guidance and boundaries then it's probably to be expected that you'll end up with issues.

Technically, they've always been paid as they still have bills/rent to pay on the outside world so BB pays them for their time spent in the house.

Nowadays, some of them are probably paid quite high fees like in CBB.

He wasn't famous enough for CBB at the time but also not average enough to do regular BB for no money ...maybe Chelsea same too....

He's more famous that the usual people they have on CBB

They had the girl Rod Stewert or some other aging rockstar had a fling with on the celeb version, Marco could have easily qualified for the Celeb version

This! And he would have done better. With vote to save it's easier to save the bigger characters.

I agree...I don't think any of them shud be paid or any of them should have previous experience in the celebrity circuit.
I tried to work out which housemates this year have no connections to the media but I couldn't think of one ...maybe Jackson but even he claims to have done modelling

Maybe BB thought 2 months value for their money would be better than 2 weeks but they didn't anticipate the viewers to be so upset by him....can't blame BB not predicting the reaction...after all, the last person who went in the house and cheated on their fiancé was voted second place by the viewers...and she didn't even have a hall pass

They say it's always the girls who get the blame but here's an example where that's not actually true.

Well he is now that's for sure

You're right, he could have gone on as a model....some CBB housemates who claim to be models have been total nobody's

This is really unfair. Stephanie cheated and didn't even have a hall pass. But she was liked. Urgh. But he will be fine. He's still so young and it's never too late to change public perception. Look at Steph who is now hated and unamployable

[Marsh.]

Stephanie Davis is only 23. So by the same argument, she too is still so young and has time to change.

I think Evelyn and Hughie are the only 2

I suppose so, but for me she's now getting the stick she should have got before. Because she did cheat and that was wrong.

Evelyn of course .. Forgot about her ... I too thought Huey but a friend told me he recognised him from a reality show about the travelling community ... He may be mistaken though
