I am not cynical about every couple though! Helen and Paul lasted 5 years. Sophie and that black dude from bb3 got together and had a baby together!
Grace and Mikey.. can't believe it but they are married!!!! I believe they are obviously in love with each other. Also they hardly do any interviews together.. they went back to their ordinary careers.

Josie and John James though... it's just that John did treat Josie like crap a bit in the house and I just don't believe that.

Preston and Chantelle.. I don't believe in them. They were genuine first time around but now.. they just want all the magazine deals with £££££. Maybe Chantelle still likes Preston.. but they married and got divorced. They both deserve someone else.

To be honest I really wish Pete from bb7 was in Ultimate BB. I loved him and Nikki as a couple. I thought I saw a nice spark when I saw them together in Ultimate BB when Pete was a part of that task :) They are just friends now though but I find them both adorable with each other and they are both interesting and entertaining characters on their own too!

Sophie and Kris from bb10.. what a joke. That's all I can say :hugesmile:

So.. there is a mixture really. Some genuine.. some obviously in to cash in on the magazine deals.

If BB12 comes back.. I mean yeah.. you know what.. I would LOVE to see a genuine romance blossom.. like Helen and Paul when it was sweet and innocent and not being boring farts under the covers all the time...

Anyway in this day and age. Romance is usually just a quick honeymoon period. After that the romance is DEAD.

Amen :hugesmile:
I love how you went through so many! I can't believe you think Pete and Nikki were real(I did too at the time) and John and Josie weren't! John didn't treat Josie like ****,if anything sorry Josie people but it was the other way round. But I'd be here all day going into that.

Do you see what Preston said in OK? He said if him and Chantelle got back together it would have be forever so neither of them got hurt again. That doesn't seem like something anyone would do for a bit of money.

I'm not saying anyone is a hater of me,they're a hater of couples. People just keep insulting me for believing in BB couples.

I think the main problem is we can't identify the degree of love. We're still only seeing what they give us on the outside. But deep down it's hard to tell. I think we needs to see what happens with JJJ after all the corny mag shoots and stuff. That is the real test.

Kerry 22-09-2010 09:51 PM
Princess, think and feel how you like. It's not upto anyone else. It's what makes you, you. No need to defend that

Well I'm going on the hours and hours of live feed I saw. I believe they'll still be together after all the hype goes away but as you said we'll have to see.

It's all talk and no action in a magazine for money though!

I do think Pete and Nikki were real at the time (in the house). They were such an odd couple! Also I liked Luke and Bex. I thought they were real too. They lasted for a year. I thought their personalities went well together. They had a similar sense of humour. The only difference they had was that Bex was a booze drinking party animal and Luke was a geek who would rather watch re runs of a Touch of Frost drinking tea on a Saturday night! :hugesmile:

Oh Josie and John.. I am not a fan of either of them. Or Cameltoe for that matter....

Anyway it is all just difference in opinion Laura! No one dislikes or hates you!

Also the forum would be boring without a bit of difference in opinions! :)

Don't worry. Easy to if people keep having digs :(

In real life, absolutely nothing, but when it concerns BB you have to take it all with a pinch of salt, seeing as most "couples" don't last particularly long.

Yeah, but all I'm saying, is when the mag deals are over and stuff. Practicality will hit them, and they'll have to make a decision. Where they will both live ect. Don't forget John is very close to his family back in OZ and has spent the last few years comforting his mum.

I don't think EVERY couple is real,in the last 11 years of BB I say there was about 9ish real couples(off the top of my head). I don't believe it cos I want to believe it,I believe it cos what I see in front of my eyes to me is real. For some couple anyways.

And I'm gonna 'harp on' on about lovely and wonderful I think they are all I fecking want,there's enough hate on this place for them to last a lifetime.
Fine - just don't expect others not to make comments you don't like - when you make such ludicrous, unfounded remarks about how much in love they are!

At best - Josie is in lust with his looks as well as making a lot of money out of the whole 'couple' thing - and for JJ1 it is about publicity and making a name for himself - it is so obvious - to most anyway! Hardly good role models are they? Certainly not the kind of people I want kids of mine aspiring to!

Grace and Mikey lasting the longest now! Well actually they have lasted 4 years at the moment.. (including marriage) If they are still together next year they would have been together the same length of time as Paul and Helen!

I do hope Grace and Mikey last.. and have babies. I liked Grace in bb7. She was a bitch but made bb7 interesting. She's not stupid either. Mikey was a bit dull in bb7. I think Grace wears the trousers. However they both appear to be decent people outside of BB.

That's one out of how many? You know what I mean, right?

LOL Luke and Bex got more stick than any couple!!

I'm not saying anyone hates me,I don't want to sound like 'Oh poor me' I'm just a bit fed up with being called names for believing something and then being told there is no way in hell I can be right.

Aye it would be indeed.

1 out of a lot....

Still though it is one couple still together so there is still hope.

In real life though more couples are breaking down. I bet more than 50% get divorced now.

Anyway I do agree that most BB couples are in love or in lust with each other in the "honeymoon period". You will get them feelings because you are living with someone 24 7. You could end up fancying someone or seeing someone in a different light.

Anyway.. good luck to them all!

You could be right! We just have to wait and see. I could imagine Josie having John's babies because she is a "randy mare". I havn't bought into the magazines though. I have just read what I have seen on the internet.

If Grace and Mikey came out with an interview (they usually do once every blue moon) then I will read that because it will be something fresh, new and interesting because they hardly do magazine interviews.

InOne 22-09-2010 10:12 PM
Grace and Mikey were the best BB couple ever! Just slunk back into their normal lives and ended up sticking it out together.

Well obviously. But some people won't even percieve the idea that it could be real,which annoys me. I don't percieve the idea it's fake I suppose but I do believe some BB 'couples' aren't real. I just think there's clearly a difference between the real and fake couples.

Well they're in London till like March I think. John's been asked stuff like where he sees himself in 5 years and he's said Bristol. I know they're going to Oz next month for a bit of a break.

I never said people couldn't say negative things about the couples,it annoys me but nowt I can do about it,it's your opinion. I don't just like all the little digs aimed at the fans.

Helen and Paul were together 5 years,Grace and Mikey 4 so far. A lot of couples were together about a year. And just because only one relationship has survived doesn't mean all the rest are doomed,it's just not the best omen in the world.

Oooh you know something else which annoys me? If a couple stay together about a yearish and they break up and they broke up 'obviously cos they were fake and all that'. If couples break up in real life they don't get their relationship being called fake. No one said anything about it lasting forever.

LOL! I'd love if JJJ did what Grace and Mikey did and once all the hype died down just went off to Bristol and had a quiet life. I know people won't believe this but I genuinely don't think they care for the showbiz life that much.

The mag deals have dried up, that's all. Sorry, I'm a cynic when it comes to all of that stuff.

As for the couple of relationships that have lasted, it's just a drop in the ocean compared to the amount of drivel we've had to endure, with Josie and JJ being the worst ever, in my opinion anyway.

Mac Hiavellian 22-09-2010 10:50 PM
I suppose nowadays because we've come accustomed to many wannabe HMs with magazine deals, hopes for stardom and fake couples it's made us very cynical. Sometimes HMs could fool themselves that its genuine but they later admit "It's because you're in a closed environment and there's no escapign them and that house does things to your head."

In my personal opinion, I believe Helen/Paul, Sophie/Lee, Chantelle/Preston, Grace/Mikey and Luke/Rebecca are the only genuine couples that started on BB, and even then some of them had media exposure after leaving. As much as I think Josie fancies John James, I still don't believe the feelings are mutual atm
