Having watched Natalie in the past on various seasons of Bad Girls Club, her manipulative ways are something we've only seen at around 30% in CBB so far. We've not yet seen her really hit her limit and go off the deep end, and that's something viewers deserve! It won't be the show's finest moment, and it will undoubtedly lead to her being evicted from the show, but it's why we tune in!

I've also gotta stick up for Natalie. Asking everybody about their storms - which are pivotal to the entire theme of the series - isn't a crime. Ryan Thomas jumping down her throat as soon as she asked the question, then sitting back and watching chaos rain down on Natalie as she faced attacks from Dan Osborne and Jermaine Pennant, only chiming in with comments such as "so negative", was uncomfortable viewing.

This kind of rhetoric when it comes to a woman of colour who's unafraid to be herself and ask questions of those she's living with will only lead to her feeling ostracised down the line. Whilst it likely has nothing to do with the colour of her skin, Natalie has every right to feel that it might do exactly that, especially so when words are being put in her mouth and she's being labelled as "aggressive" and "intimidating", simply because of the volume of her speech. It may not be a "race thing", but it may indeed be a gender issue.

If Natalie is sent packing, and all we've got to look forward to this summer is seeing the "lads" cackling because Jermaine (who apparently has a significant other) can crawl on his knees like a dog, and lick Chloe Ayling's bare thigh before howling, then it's going to be an incredibly testing series indeed.
