Whether it's the same as the public or not doesn't make it any better. Her comments about Helen have done and do go far beyond commenting on the way Helen is with other people.

Her attitude can be just as foul as Helen's. But because she doesn't shout as loud as Helen when she's pissed people think she's somehow different.

They both bitch, they both have bad attitudes, they both pity themselves and they both don't like one another. Helen brings bad feeling to herself by her severe self defensiveness and loud gob, Ashleigh brings it by being a sulky brat sitting away from the group thinking herself better.

Neither is the big bad villain and neither is the victim. It's a clash of bitches.
