Oh I know he was telling the truth. But he didn't use it as a sob story in order to win like so many do on these shows.

I don't doubt she'll throw Ł5 to a few charities!

Absolutely. She has certainly not indicated what proportion of the winnings she would give away.

And who's going to be able to check, maybe months or even years down the line, whether she actually gave anything away at all.

It is a very easy statement to make because you can never be properly called out on it.

They were on AGAIN bout it on BOTS tonight. Ashleigh shouldn't been given extra praise etc cos of her age. She should be treated equally to all the other housemates regardless of their age

Why oh why oh why did you bring it up AGAIN! Seeing as you did, Ashleigh is an AMAZING 18 YEAR OLD with more maturity in her little finger than the likes of the robot slut Kim or the vile slut Helen.
A 5 year old isn't usually as mature as a 10 year old,
A 12 year old isn't usually as mature as a 17 year old,
And an 18 year old isn't usually as mature as a 27 year old.
The fact that she IS A LOT more mature is the reason it is brought up. Because it's unusual and she's AMAZING!

..great post Jet, for an 18yr old she's extremely mature and more so than most in the house..especially if you compare her to Helen who with the life she has led, should really be quite 'worldy' and considerate to others but she's completely self-centred...anyway, age is often mentioned in BB in many ways so I don't know why Ashleigh's seems an issue at being mentioned in regard to people admiring her at such a young age ...Pauline...a bully at her age..'...'Denise Welsh, behaving that way at her age..'...'awww, Glyn, he's young and niave..' all such things like that which have in the past referred to age and many more I would think....

..anyway, she's a tough little lady to have survived that house of hate and that's what I like about her....

Im entitled to create a thread about anything I feel strongly about Jet and last nights BOTS kept saying it again so I then created the thread. She is an adult and should be treated the same as all the other adults in there fair enough if people like her for whatever reason but her age shouldn't be brought into it in my opinion

[Northern Monkey]

Is she 18?Oh i did'nt know.Seems very mature and intelligent for that age.

[Lwize]

I figured she was somewhere between 17 and 19, but 18?! I'm gobsmacked!

Princess Arsinaway (spelled wrong) was younger than Ashleigh and she nearly brought down the great warrior Julius Cesar. She was incidentally the younger sister of the now infamous Cleopatra. Never underestimate a woman of any age because their brains are more developed than a mans of the same age and their instinct for survival is also far more advanced. So when you take that analagy, the wicked Cleopatra (Helen) won over her nemesis (Ashleigh) and it didnt take long before Mark Anthony (Ash) fell foul of Cleopatra's charms and the rest we know.

So history teaches us to be carefull of the younger woman, because there is always someone better and more dangerous than the hunter. Arsinaway was found and squashed by the elder sister Cleopatra, in our case the moral of the story is that if Ashleigh openly declares war on Helen, she might just be back scooping dog poop at her rescue center a little quicker than she planned.

Our temple of Artimus where Arsinaway met her death is Elstree and it was Mark Anthony's army that did the dirty deed for Cleopatra, so Ash still has his uses. Now I am off to bed with my Cleopatra and hope I dont get poisoned by an asp because she hates the telly on when she is trying to get her beauty sleep and trust me, she needs it, lol.

Age has no relevance when a game is afoot. Actions speak louder than words and Ashleigh is proving to be a very streetwise girl/woman, but it still does not erradicate the fact that when she gets ruffled, she shows traits of Attila the Hun.

[camertone]

ashleigh is a lot worse than helen. what a dull and BITCHY girl.

[Niamh.]

tbf she's barley out of school so I don't see the issue in mentioning it, 18 is quite young, it's just about an adult I know when my kids are 18 I'll probably still see them as kids, infact they will still be going to school. Either way, it's not her fault people on BOTS mention it, is it? That's what they feel so why shouldn't they say it if they wish. It's not that big of a deal really lol

[joeysteele]

For the majority of this series she has been a really miserable 18 year old. Very few light moments and getting into things from her at all.

[CaudleHalbard]

There are 18 year olds in the armed forces - and they are expected to give their lives if need be.
