Also, Linda is now using that incident to try and excuse her hatred of Jim. Since leaving the house she is trying to suggest that's where the problems started. Anyone who actually watched the show knows that isn't the case. The issues she had with Jim started long before that incident. She had numerous malicious attacks on Jim before that incident. That led to the housemates asking Jim why she hates him so much, and Jim then offering Frank Carson's dressing room as a possible explanation.
Linda felt Jim was an easy target because of his reputation in some quarters and she fully expected the public to be on her side. She underestimated the public. It was a big shock to her to come out to boos and what we see now is her desperately trying to re-write what actually took place in the house.
She is trying to paint herself as come of victim and is using her dead husband to promote that. She's now even bringing self harm into it to further her victim agenda. There is nothing this woman won't stoop to.
