What I found most alarming about the whole thing was that Marcus said "mistakenly think that..." And then the following conversation basically confirmed that we're being lied to. Charlotte mentioned seeing family right in front of Lauren, and Lauren didn't deny it or even look slightly surprised, confirming that it must have happened. So either it's being covered up, or for some reason Lauren WANTS people to think she saw family when she didnt.

As for the argument, yes Charlotte was very immature and it was obvious that she was finding it hard to contain her upset and frustration... But trying to claim that Vicky was in the right? She was being deliberately aggressive, patronising and antagonistic throughout the entire conversation. Not what she said - but how she said it. Then she pulled out the old "Im 45 I deserve respect" chestnut (is she really only 45 by the way??? Wut??) Before going to the garden to demonstrate that she, in fact, doesnt deserve any respect at all from Charlotte because she clearly doesn't and never has respected Charlotte. Her underlying feelings bubbled to the surface, and it's the same nasty judgemental rubbish we're seeing all over the internet.

The real shame is that Vicky would be easy to wreck in an argument, she's a very angry little lady, all you'd need to do is keep your cool, wind her up, and then laugh at her. She would implode, spectacularly. Unfortunately Charlotte isn't in control of her emotions and couldn't do that.
