Jade 2013 Appreciation thread

I go back and forwards on his motivations in the house - you all know I have never trusted him, but I really just don't know what he was actually thinking.

With most of the bad stuff deleted from the blog, I don't know if it will reinforce the "Jade forced Ed" line or not. I think it has started people re-thinking about Ed, and not in a good way. Rather than reinforcing that he was the victim of a clinger - I think people are questioning what type of person would happily support something that was so publicly negative about someone he was supposed to care about, and praise the people responsible for it. It says way more about who Ed is than how Jade may have been perceived.

Fortunately for Jade, this wasn't her first experience of media scrutiny. I don't know if they received any kind of media training on Italy's Next Top Model - but she certainly faced media scrutiny and interviews when she made the decision to leave the show and I think that is one of the reasons why she has presented so well on camera in all the interviews she has done. She has been down this road before. She has come across as calm, considered, rational, self-assured - and anything but a stalker or obsessed. She has followed this up with very careful photos and tweets that have actually revealed very little.

I think by now - other than some die-hards - most people realise that Jade isn't an obsessed stalker and Ed was a participant in their in-house relationship, and that some interesting editing went on with all housemates. Ed's posts are the ones that have been couple-ey (whether genuine or contrived) which puts paid to any stories of him being unwilling. Tahan's comment that Ed is a decent guy forced to be with Jade so as not to look bad is just ridiculous, because any guy who would maintain a relationship to not look bad, is not a decent guy - he is using someone to enhance his own image.

But I do feel that he used her in the house, once his friends left, and it does look like he may have continued to use her (at least to a degree) once they left the house.

I was pleased that even the members on Facebook and Instagram that call Jade a "clinger" etc. have said the hate in the blog was unnecessary and did him no favours. Tahan has this obsession with that point of view, I go out of my way to not see what she posts but I wouldn't be surprised if she is still retweeting rubbish etc. - given they have spent time to together recently, I wouldn't be surprised if she spent most of the time ramming that down his throat.

I don't follow Tahan, and the only stuff I see of her is what is posted in the other thread. But, even after 3 months, I think you could be right about her getting in Ed's ear - and gloating because she was right that it didn't last
 
I agree [MENTION=32134]smurfette[/MENTION] and [MENTION=33321]delcan[/MENTION],both of you have pretty much summed up how I feel.
 
I would love to know what Tim's keeping his lips sealed about. Someone on twitter asked him about the goss on Jade and Ed when he was in Byron with Jade and his reply was my are sealed or something like that.

Hopefully Tim is just doing the right thing by Jade. Jade probably asked him to back off on any comment about it.

I am more and more convinced Jade brushed Ed and just wants to put it behind her.
 
I think Ed is long gone as far as Jade is concerned.

I know a few people continue to snipe at Jade but it would not surprise me if Jade worked out Ed pretty quickly on the outside and figured for herself that a few drunken hookups with Ed was not what Jade wanted. I think Jade is smarter than most people think.

So much to catch up on tonight! So pleased Jade has some auditions.
I agree she is smarter than some people think. Given Ed's blog blunder he is dumber than I thought he was. I'd prefer to think he's just stuffed up rather than that he is using the blog posts as some sort of strategic move. What a strange thing to do.
 
Well, well, look who Jade has inspired

VERY adorable, morning, exchange. I agree, his Italian is not there yet. lol. I must admit, it makes it all the more endearing.
 
That whole exchange made me smile.

Now that they've acknowledged themselves as friends they can interact with each other. Very cute.

(and his version of that dish looked YUM and I don't even like sweet potato lol)
