Default Gina's appalling grammar doesn't fit....

....the image of a rich kid, likely sent to a public school. You can fake a posh accent (badly!) but if your grammar is inherently crap, you have no chance. She says stuff like "most baddest!". Hmmmmm.

Rich kids aren't always smart?

Being rich doesn't mean you have to be clever.

I agree that she most likely isn't loaded like she claims but that probably isn't the best example to use to prove it.

Grammar isn't necessarily associated with intelligence. Public schools have as many idiots as state schools. However, public schools tend to stamp out individuality in terms of speech - accents, grammar, syntax, intonation and Gina would have stuck out like a sore thumb. I give as an example the Harry Enfield character Tim Nice But Dim - well-spoken but vacuous. Gina does not come across as a public school girl at all. If she went to state school where very rich colloquialisms and speech patterns are prevalent, then fair play to her, but this would not fit with her tales of never catching a bus/taxi or anything from what most of us would deem everyday life.

I thought the stereotypical rich girl was dumb?

On a similar subject, I've noticed a few of the house mates confuse the words 'genuinely' and 'generally'. Dexter and Gina have both been guilty of this, and I've a feeling Sophie has too. For example, when they say something like "I genuinely like her", instead they say "I generally like her". Then again, I think a lot of the younger generation today appear to get this confused......drives me nuts.

The pronunciation of the word 'aitch' (H) as 'haitch' speaks volumes. Educated people KNOW the 'H' is silent. Gina referred to the Haitch Emms (HMs). The twins say Haitch too!! Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Ive noticed that all her promo videos and pics are all very recent and all look like they are taken in a hotel, probably the Ritz, but none of her and her BF are lovie dovie pics. You would think that if she is telling the truth that she has been a socialite for so long, why are there no older pics. She has that terrible weave in all het pics and the nob she calls her BF is mostly wearing the same clothes on all pics. Even his hair and beard are the same. I reckon these pics were all taken on the same week and her story is fabricated. BTW if she is transgender, then this might explain the lack of togetherness in the pics as they are all about her.
