She has defined him. 
 
Without her creating this rivalry I am confident that we all would be happily calling him dead wood. He is really only supported for the most part because Carol is so dislikeable.

 …yeah, without each other I think we would have seen different aspects to them both, I agree…and that was the thing for me with Farida as well, how she was in the wrong season, as it were…

…it’s impossible (..for me..) though to say, how would I have perceived either as a housemate, without the other because the reasons that I like Richard are actually apart and aside from his Caroline associations/partnership/feud/rivalry etc…but I do think…that Caroline has allowed herself to be consumed with Richard but that won’t take from the thing that she’s enjoying her time and experience and the friends/bonds that she’s made…and that’s no small thing…but I also think that Richard will have enjoyed his own experience living it his way and equally have made some great friends/bonds etc… Non, je ne regrette rien and all that jazz…
