It's a burning question I have to ask.
:joker:
Is it a romance or a showmance? What are their intentions? Do you see it as genuine or not? Or is it too early to call? I certainly didn't see it on the cards. Your thoughts please.

Yes it came out of the blue, didn't it? It seems fairly genuine to me. Hope it's a slow burner like Helen and Paul in BB2.

I’d say as they’ve tried to keep it on the down low it’s genuine. They don’t want to do anything until out of the house.

Just watched sneak peek on the app. I agree. It showed them talking and saying they'll just hug. Was sweet.

We had one last year and out of came the winner
Nathan not wanting to put a label on his sexuality makes me suspicious that he will take up with a man or a woman to gain favour
I see Nathan as a gay man

Yeah but last year it was obvious and not discreet. These two have said they don’t want to act upon it until out of the house. I guess we’ll see if they stick to that in the next few weeks now housemates and viewers know.

The thing is he made it so obvious to dean that something had happened
That dean was bound to press him on the subject
It looked like to gay men having a conversation to me

Ben what does your gay dar say ?
I'm a bit sceptical about Nathan's motives. He was definitely enjoying stoking everyone's interest by following her around and then his responses to Dean. Rosie seemed to be trying to play it cool instead
I wonder how much she knows about what Nathan told Hanah in that he originally came out as gay but doesn't put a label on it now

I didn’t hear the bit about him coming out as gay only the bit about him not putting a label on it.

Yeah he definitely said to Hanah that he originally came out as gay
It also seems to be very reminiscent of Jordan who was bi but didn't really identify as such, flirted a bit with Chantelle but then ultimately ended up having a gay romance

He spends all morning preening himself with the girls too doing his hair etc (as well as saying that) so I'm pretty sure he is a gay so I would be wary if I were Baked potato.
She should ask him "wait you were gay when you came in so what has changed?"

It's so random and they don't seem a good match at all :shrug:

Really
Both laugh at silly things , both seem of average intelligence ( above average in the BB house)… both kinda quirky…

Rosie laughs at anything though lol, she just seems desperate to be with someone. Nathan is definitely more intelligent, idk about her. Rosie is just messy and all over the place whereas Nathan actually seems very "together" and confident in himself. It just came out of nowhere and I've hardly even seem them talk before

Haven't a clue.
They're both a bit difficult to work out at times.
However I'm not going to enjoy yet another romance/showmance.
Every series just about has one and it's become tedious.
Although thinking about it, shut up with each other 24 hours a day, week after week could create confusion and/or unlikely attractions.
One thing is certain, IF they are attracted to each other even only casually moreso, if they play on it they will get, and they'll KNOW themselves that they'll get, considerable footage in the highlights programming.
I can hear and feel the teeth clanking together, and it's making me sick.

Showmance
I truly believe they like eachother, they possibly will go out for drinks on the outside....but I'm not buying that it's anything more serious.
And I think it's convenient timing aswell, after Marcello situation.
And I thought BP jumped on Marcello's back in the fire alarm ,but Nathan said she jumped on his back now.
And why are they acting as if Lily has outed some big secret romance. Nathan & BP 's behaviour was so awkward and weird, they're behaving as if they're secret lovers who are in a full blown relationship... like calm down you two ... you've known eachother 2 weeks. You had a 1 to 1 chat when that fire alarm happened,and suddenly it's lover's big dream.
They keep drawing deliberate attention to themselves, whilst also denying anything is 'wrong' :rolleyes: . And surprise surprise Nathan is now climbing the odds to win aswell ... predictable.

There seems an air of "teenage crush" about the whole thing where both are afraid to admit that they fancy the other for fear that they have 'misread the signs' and are reading more into it that there is... when it is clear to all of us watching that there is indeed a strong mutual attraction. The sooner that they admit it to each other the better.

Exactly
They wanted to keep it quiet as they knew everyone would presume it was a showmance

I don't see the chemistry, but if it brings them out more individually into the game I don't really care... the showmance itself is boring for me atm :laugh: Everything seems awkward about it.

I feel like they're the ones making it into something more than it is,but they're trying to play it off as some embarrassing moment of being ' outed'. They're behaving as if they're star crossed lovers who have been in a long term relationship secretly. It's so out the blue. I'm not saying they're not friends...but this showmance is just a showmance.
And they acted way too bothered by Lily's nonsense, whilst drawing attention to it as welll... like a walking contradiction :joker:.
I must say I'm looking forward to how it pans out, they are both making light of things in a humorous way. I like that side of it. I believe the feelings.
Emma always there to lighten the mood anyway.

Their love will make a change from arguing and conflict. We all need this

Emma is scared she will get pushed out. I think Rosie now is different. More awkward but hopefully that changes with time.

Didn't Nathan earlier on in the series heavily imply that he was gay?
So to me this screams Showmance, but I'm up for being proven wrong.

I think he has never liked labels. When Hanah asked him previously in the bathroom he said he just likes the person. I find it odd how it was Rosie who suggested things, had it come from Nathan himself I may have thought it was more fake but as it came from Rosie I am not sure, she seems genuine.

I think Rosie is very fake as well tbh.
I think that she is a decent person don't get me wrong, but I don't believe Rosie is into Nathan.

She muttered quietly in the chaos something like … shall we go away together to a winery when this is all over ..

Said he thought he was 'gay', but how he doesn't label it...as he likes the 'person themselves ' ...aka bisexual/ pansexuality.
But yeah I agree about it feeling very faky / showmance :idc: . They both...especially Nathan keep on bringing it up, it's basically like the faulty towers joke " don't mention the war"...while proceeding to mention it :rolleyes: .
…no I don’t see it as genuine, maybe I’m being a bit harsh there in that I really don’t like showmances and the airtime/highlight time they take when for me it’s always been about the dynamics of a whole group…I know that we’ve always had it through many seasons but I guess back in the day there was 24 live feed, so it didn’t feel the main focus or overly focused…but then a bit of me does think it’s genuine as well…:laugh:…in that they both seem to have a great connection and in the context of being in the house, maybe that can feel romantic very quickly …

Nor me
It's disappointing that it's now possible, (not certain), that this series which was going really good in my view.
May now descend into a showmance nonsense.
Every series almost it happens and then all the highlights are and talk go on about is said ronancees/ showmances.
Which just gets tedious.
With the shorter series for me it's a big ugh to that and no thanks.
However let's see how it goes I guess.

Maybe Nathan just needed a good woman to sort out his feelings and along came Baked Potato
Now he is as straight as an arrow and I can see this being a very long term relationship
It will be fascinating to watch the romance develop in real time

I agree with you about the Showmances being invasive in a lot of BBUK series.
Like you, I will be open to it (especially if they calm the melodrama down slightly) but I'm not a fan of the start of it, I'll be honest about that.

Fair enough about his sexuality, he should know better than me about his own sexuality after all.
And you've made a good point about them feeling like that particular Faulty Towers skit.:joker:
