All through the series viewers have taken different views on Helen. Some have seen good things in her for weeks, that many others have not seen or choose not to acknowledge. That's life, so Helen by her nature will always split opinion.
Firstly, let me put it out there that if Helen wanted to continue fighting and arguing with Ashleigh, she would, whether Steven or anyone else gave her outside information or not. That is the nature of Helen.
Secondly, there was basically 1 day left before the final, opportunities to reconcile/make amends or whatever were becoming limited, but the opportunity came along after everyone had a chance to relax, enjoy some additional company, and then have a reflect back on all the events in the form of photos - That always brings out emotion, always.
Thirdly, the producers engineered the bedsit situation in the hope of having one last kick off. It didn't happen. There is only 1 reason for that. Helen decided that enough was enough, and that she wasn't going to let it disrupt her final couple of days in the show. No outside input required at that point, and none received. Ashleigh, knowing what she said should have caused Helen to kick off, got a surprise, the blow out didn't happen. Making her much more open to a reconciliation. And you know what, maybe Chris had a word with her and told her that what she said came over as a bit bitter?
Anyway, they have reconciled, and even if it is only for a day or 2, who cares, it happened - they all seem much happier, why shouldn't the viewers take a chill pill and enjoy the moment too.
One final point. If a war was going on between 2 countries, and they talked and peace broke out, everyone would rejoice in it.
