ETA: Kyle asked her if she’s already slept with other people and she said she’s had some fun. She sounded fine to me in the interview unlike abbie who boohooed last year in her Kyle and Jackie o interview.

How dare Irena question Bella's intentions to the other girls

I’m sure that Irena is not perfect and probably did say some snarky things at times, but I also wouldn’t take the narrative that Izzy et al are pushing at face value either. They allied with Bella in the house, and they’d look pretty dumb if they came out and went back on that, so they’ve had to double down on it.

I wish Locky and Irena all the best, I don’t have high hopes, but the fact that she’s moving to WA means that there must be something there, however I am suspicious that in non COVID times they may have tried a bit of long distance for a while to see how it went!

Zaynab wrote:Just to note in their Kyle and Jackie o interview, irena and locky said locky and her brother get a long really well and they’ve been talking. So igor’s interview he did was very spoilery. They also said they want to do the PCH in the us when they are allowed to travel.

PCH?

No Bella as Bette. Please. We’ve suffered enough

I think covid has pushed everyone together and forced their hands. Mary/Conor and Alisha/Glenn were/are in the same situation, G+A said in their first interviews they were going to be long distance this year, but covid changed that - and I think the G+A and M+C it's been the best thing for them. I'm not as convinced with Locky and Irena. I'm not sold on them as a couple, like I was with our BIP couples.

And I also agree with everything else you've said in your comment.

Bella thought she would win and when she sensed that Irena was real competition she went after her.
I don’t think Irena is unpopular at all. And all these rumours about Locky texting Bella, Bella turning him down... IMO they’ve all been started by Bella.

Izzy and Steph are just as bad as Bella IMO.

Zaynab wrote:@butterflylove they both commented saying it’s not true, Jamie commented Kaitlyn is trying to get with irena’s brother, don’t know if he was being serious or not. They said there just friends.
