Jade did exactly the same thing when recounting the story to Aaron and Harriet. She said, incorrectly, that Eileen called her nomination a "walk in the park" when it was Jade who used the phrase. She then left out the bit that made HER look bad.
Eileen started the original conversation, this is true. And Jade most certainly responded and then some. Both women were snide. Both came out of it looking pathetic. Both are now rewriting history to paint themselves as innocent.
Personally, I don't think either is now consciously 'lying'. I think their sense of aggrievement has now distorted their memory. This isn't uncommon.
