Exactly my thoughts Miriam.
I mean, we would ALL heave a hearty sigh of relief if Paul and Helen made it official, but it's just not their (well his) style.
He was awfully careful about getting together with Helen in the house, and about announcing they were together.
Even in the HELLO article, he flaming well kept qualifying everything with 'at the moment'. On the radio interview in July he said
'We've been through so much together, and survived it. And if we can get through all that I think we must be meant to be together'
He is very lovely in many ways, but by golly, he is a mega procrasinator.
Back to Lee and Sophie. As you know, when the select TIBB few went to this years finale, we saw Sophie and Lee in the flesh (along with Spencer and PJ) in fairly close proximity. The chemistry and obvious compatibility that you saw between Paul and Helen just didn't seem to be there.
Obviously it must be, but my suspicion is that Lee and Sophie have a major lust thing going, and have subsequently found they quite like each other as well. I find it difficult to imagine them having a meeting of minds, but who knows. Poor old Dermot obviously gave up on him a night early on BBLB, and was quoted somewhere as saying how dire he was interacting with the Dreamboys. Let's hope that when the fizz fades they still have an inner glow for each others personalities!
Whereas with the other pair, we know it started the other way round. Very 'When Harry met Sally'. I think Helen is going to have to push things along here. Or maybe it's time for 'The Mums' to step in again!
You can't beat Mum power!
