Thats hilarious^.

Good points there James, I agree with pretty much everything youve said.

I think its just a huge shock to us beacause we were so convinced they had it made. On the recent BB Love Stories show shown in May, Helen still spoke lovingly of Paul and looked happy.

I got the impression that Paul probably wanted marriage soon and maybe children too, but they probably didnt agree. I guess its that age old problem of just not wanting the same things.

Who knows? and Im glad we dont know. Im glad they've managed to keep their private details of the split to themselves. I respect that hugely for that, as Im sure we all do.

I hope we still hear the odd thing in the press/media from Helen, but I feel this is the last we hear off Paul.

My message to Paul and Helen (if ever you did/or do read these sites) is: We all hope you get the happiness you deserve and all the luck in the world finding it. Thanks for the great memories!

Oh this is really bad news! I hope they stay friends- they had such a good thing together!

Its sad for us, but maybe we should be happy for them that theyve managed to split amicably and stay loyal to each other rather that get involved in a slanging match as a lot of other celebs do when they split.

I just cant see them being that close a friends because Helen is moving away- its such as shame.

I didnt want them to split obviously, but I hope they find someone else to love, but as cc100 says, I think true love only happens once- if youre lucky!

God bless, and we all still love you both!

Its great that they dont seem to have had a big falling out and there seems no bitterness.

I have thought about it all, recovered slightly, and now I'm so down again. I want to get hold of them both and put them back together, Tonights BB eviction just made me think about all the Paul Survival moments, the 'shall we have our talk?' ........'in the den?' moments.

Ignore everything else I said. I'm gutted, and feel so frustrated I can't do anything about it.

They belong together!

Are you out there you two???

Listen to Auntie Wendy.

Get a room and make babies you silly people.!!!!!

(Thanks to my gs for the illustration!)

I know the feeling ROB. Its such a shame, it really is. I still cant beleive it...............

We have to respect their decision and Im sure they didnt take it lightly, but...........they are made for each other- I hope they havent made a mistake. I just think they'll regret it one day- perhaps they are just two stubborn people unable to back down?

From reading between the lines, I cant help thinking that if Paul had said he would go with Helen to Bristol, they wouldnt have parted- who knows?


Found this:

End of an era as Helen and Paul split

On one of the Welsh entertainment websites, it says that Helen has been approached for ITVs Celebrity Love Island this summer.

If its true, Im not sure its the right thing for her to do...........

From what little knowledge I have read about the spli it does seem there is no real bitterness involved.

Do we know if either are in another relationship now!!!

They were so well matched I find it difficult to believe they won't miss each other after a rest apart and perhaps re-unite.....

They survived all the pressure of publicity after the show and beyond so I do not believe still being of media interest had anything what so ever to do with their split.

They have remained a private couple since leaving the house and I am afraid the truth behind their seperation will also remain private..

Still hoping for an eventual happy ending....Bananarama..

Celebrity Love Island - well perhaps they could put both of them on it. Helen on her own I dont think would be a good thing - too close to the breakup. I do hope that Helen isnt setting her sights on a media careeer now because I honestly think it is too late for that.

As others have said if you are lucky once you have got past that honeymoon period you learn to be each other's best friend and soul mate. I really thought this was what had happened to them.

It is so easy to give up on relationships, I know my OH and I have had our ups and downs in the past, perhaps it was the kids that kept us together I dont know, but we always sat down and discussed matters. I know when the kids were young I always put them first, but now they have left home we have had to build a relationship with just the two of us, and know what its Great. His accident last year made me realise he really is my best friend, it could have been so different. He really was lucky.

Paul and Helen had it hard right from the start with all the media attention, it was a wonder they got together in the first place. Makes me want to sti them down, bang their heads together and tell them to remember how it felt then. Is it worth giving up all the good time for an uncertain future?

As Helen always said she felt as if part of her is missing when she was away from Paul. Lets hope she feels that way now.

Though why Helen wants to live in Bristol I dont know. Perhaps it was an iniital compromise to be halfway between Newport and Reading. But Bristol will give her a great welcome. she can always come to me for a cup of tea and a chat.

The problem is that for a lot of us 2001 was Paul and Helen. It was so nice to see genuine love growing in the house rather than the 'lets have a relationship to keep us in' that seems to be the thing now.

Five years is a long time to be together, there will be lots of reminders for them (as well as for us). But if they really arent right for each other then it is better for them to break up now rather than get married, have children and then break up.

I think we were all in such a state of shock when we first heard its taken a few days to sink in.

Well said BusyBee.

Perhaps Helen wanted to go to Bristol for some kind of media job, but Paul wanted to stay where he is? Id love to see more of helen in the media, but not at the expense of her relationship with Paul.

I thought that if they did break up, it would be Pauls decision. I cant beleive hes let her go. Madness!!

I suppose we all want Helen to be happy- but maybe Paul just didnt do that anymore? We'll never know.

As for Love Island- Pah! It'll never happen. Theres no way she'd do it. As much as we want to see more of her on telly, we dont want to see her on this trash.

BTW-ROB, could you (or anyone else) u2u me your email address please, as my u2u is playing up again?
Thanks.

There's quite a few letters in Heat magazine this week about H&P lots of them from names I recognise
Think mine was probably put in the 'too sad to print' section

I still havent read the interview theyve given to heat yet, as its too sad and feels like the end of an era.

Do you know what I mean?

As for the letters in heat this week- I sent a letter into heat about 6 weeks ago suggesting they did an interview with P/H as it was their 5th anniversary soon.............

Oh CC think we should declare 11 July a day of mourning. What could have been.

As for me I still cant bring myself to alter my banner. Sad I know.

Yep, 11 July will be a sad day indeed. An official TiBB day of mourning.

As for the banner- I dont think you or other members should change them.

Lets not forget the good times, eh?

There's a mention of Helen in The Sun today in the TV biz section.
It says she's working in a small salon in Bristol.
She's been spotted looking at luxury flats in Portishead Marina.
''A 'source'says she wanted to make a new start and move away from London.Five years is a long time to be with someone and the split is still fresh in her mind,she wants to start anew''

there's a small picture of her drying someones hair

Dont know whether Helen would be happy in Portishead - full of upmarket snobs who 'travel to the office in Bristol every day'.

Should think being in a small salon would mean less people asking questions because they probably dont know who she is.

I shall keep my eyes open just in case I can report a sighting of her around.
