Sophie was on C4 RI:SE this morning and the presenters teased her all morning by telling her they had a surprise for her. When the moment arrived to show her what her surprise was...Lee suddenly appeared from behind a studio flat and slowly walked up to the smiling Sophie. They put their arms around each other and Lee said "How are you?" Sophie replied "Fine how are you?" they then sat down to watch a clip of various Lee/Sophie moments. Sophie said "It was really cool to see him again!"
Edith asked her once more how she felt about meeting up with Lee again, and Sophie seemed genuinely happy because as she pointed out, he was the only real friend she had in the house. Lee said he was gutted when he watched how nasty Jade and the rest of them were behind her back and was pleased to see her out of there. Mark asked if there were no barriers would they go out together but Sophie said that was a bit of an unfair question, and declined to answer it.
When asked if she had been in touch with any of the other evictees, she said she had tried to contact Alison bit wasn't able to.
They ended the interview drinking champagne courtesy of RI:SE.
I am sure Lee wanted to see Sophie again very much, but I kind of got the impression he was there just to make an appearance on the programme...for his own benefit, who knows maybe I am just being too cynical.
