So if Ashleigh was really a strong minded, independent & free thinking girl, then why is it that since she stopped fighting others battles she now seems happier than she has ever been? I never hear her mention that she wants to leave now? Infact its the opposite, she looks to be getting on with everyone extremely well.

If she really was so strong minded she simply would not have made such a mess of her first 6+ weeks in the house. We can clearly see she is now thrilled with Helen & her new friends in the house. Her behaviour when Pauline, Toya & Danielle were leading her is in total contrast to how she is now. This is not someone with a strong mind, it cant be!

It beggars belief that she managed to garner any fanbase at all as a result of that bitchy behaviour. In turn it leads me to believe it was her faux hatred of Helen (that she fooled her "fans" with) that gained her the support.

So, if she was so strong minded & can think for herself what is she doing playing with Helens hair & crying when she put Ash up? Lets remember Helen said weeks ago in the DR that she would always speak to Ashley & remain pleasant so that dispels any myth that Helen has changed toward Ashleigh.
