On reflection, I think my negative comments towards Helen were just made in a state of shock- I really dont have any bad feelings towards Helen (or Paul for that matter). I still think shes one of the loveliest people to ever grace television
. I genuinely wish her and Paul every happiness.
I feel stupid to have written the things I did. Sorry Helen!
Its just a huge surprise and Im genuinely saddened to hear it, mainly because its so unexpected. I really cant be bothered with Big Brother anymore. H/P were the reason I came looking for a BB forum, to talk about them and how lovely they are/were together. I just dont know if Ill be bothered with coming back regularly to post anymore.
I guess what brought them together, eventually tore them apart.
Im sure they never made the decision lightly, but I hope they know what they are doing because true love only happens once in your life.
It amazes me how Paul could let a girl like Helen go. He must be mad! I suppose I always had this scenario in the back of my mind, because if everything was as great as we all thought, then surely they would have got married or at least engaged long before their fifth anninversary? Im sure Paul (or even Helen) would have proposed if they were sure they were for keeps.
I suppose that at the start of their relationship, Helen was reliant and dependant on Paul and she has obviously matured and changed, proven by the fact that shes moving to Bristol on her own. I couldnt imagine her doing that a few years back. So maybe thats the reason for the split- shes just doesent need him anymore? Or maybe she wanted to move to Bristol and Paul didnt?
I guess in a few months or so, we'll see a couple of 'Paul:My new love' or 'Helen: My new fella' stories in heat. It is hard to imagine, but I hope they get the happiness they deserve. Its hard to imagine them staying friends- it just doesent work like that, and especially with Helen moving to Bristol, its hard to believe they'll stay 'good friends' although Im sure they speak on the phone. But if they get into new realtionahips, which Im sure they will, then will the new partner want an ex hanging around? Doubt it.
Theres no hint of unhappiness here in this interview in April:

As for them getting back together- sadly I think this is the end for good.
I could write a five page essay here, but Ill leave it at that now, because it gets me down thinking about it.
If they cant make it- then what hope for the rest of us?
