The group were discussing racism. We saw the conversation, Jayne explained that her mother was labeled as racist of sorts because a black carer had abused her. If they had been talking about being a carer and Jayne had randomly come out with it I'd understand why Natalie was upset but it wasn't.
Natalie is very devious I think and she was very calculated in what she did last night.
