Okay, let's get the obvious out of the way, she's cheated on her boyfriend. I don't condone that kind of behaviour but it seems to me that Steph is a bit naive when it comes to emotions and consideration.

Now that aside, and I can see beyond the cheating fiasco, she's a lovely girl. She's very down to earth and extremely relatable. The whole knickers situation was completely unnecessary and Steph called it right - it is bullying.

Steph is definitely no saint but at least she is being real and not malicious (unless provoked I should add). It's a shame the Jeremy thing happened because if it wasn't for that, I could see her winning.

No, I like her. I hope she gets her man (Jeremy, I mean). She is making a great job of rising above her persecutors, who are hypocritical and mean.

You;ve decided Jeremy is her man, she might have other ideas on that depending what day of the week it is.

She seems to be only one there who has the guts to call out Gemma when needed, and that's enough for me to like her. I thought she handled tonight's fiasco with as much grace as possible, if that happened to me on national TV I'd want to walk out of that house.

Obviously the cheating is unacceptable - at the same time, things are never as black or white as they seem. I don't know anything about Steph's relationship, how long they've been together, how serious they actually were etc. If it was a serious committed relationship, then she definitely knows she'll be hated on the outside because of Jeremy, but she's doing it anyway so she doesn't care. You would think if she was serious about her bf, she wouldn't be tempted no matter what.

Thank goodness, thought I was losing it but I really don't mind her either, liked her even more after tonight's show, thought she handled that excruciating situation as well as she could and something about her I just warm to.

I also like the fact that she has been the only one to stand up to Gemma and sorry but I'm actually rooting for her and Jeremy. Sorry Sam

I am completely indifferent to the Steph/Jeremy goings on from what I've heard Sam is no angel but I do think Steph is the sort of person that is tactile and looks for physical comfort from anyone. Megan even said so. Jeremy is definately her emotional blanket.

I'm liking the fact that Gemma cannot handle her and GC finds this frustrating since she brought down the house titan John Partidge. Gemma is really trying to break her. Unfortunately, that idiot Daniella has joined her army but Steph seems to have the stamina to remain steadfast. Good for her. Most would have cracked after the humiliation of 'knickergate'

I wholeheartedly agree. The fact that she's the only one who stands up to Gemma says a lot about her values (yes, I know!)

In regards to her cheating, as you say, it isn't morally right but we're only human. It isn't in our nature to be monogamous. She's shown remorse at least even if she is still tempted by Jeremy. But that's just naivety and everyone is guilty of it.

I don't mind her, she is one of the best of a bad bunch. I like the way that she isn't scared to stand up to Gemma and Daniella. It helps however that l despise those two.

I am not a fan, not because it's some moral thing over cheating so much, I just find the lack of personal responsibility so infuriating. Blaming everyone else for her actions.

Still she is young (even though I think she is very immature for her age) She'll probably wise up eventually and she has a nice side to her. She has talent, that she doesn't seem to be using to it fullest at the moment. She's taking the zceleb route when from seeing her on the over the rainbow show I feel like she has the talent for a lot more, but then maybe that's what she wants, who am I to say .

Slight overstatement there, but it's late, I understand.

Problem is, you can't exclude what she's done to her boyfriend and Jeremy. So no she isn't a nice person. That's like saying "apart from that thing with the Jews Hitler was quite nice really"

Compare Steph to a power mad egotist who attempted to exterminate an entire race?

Good people can do foolish things.

And your comment is already invalid now that you've likened her situation to Auschwitz.

I have seen Godwin's Law used in many daft political internet rows but this one takes the biscuit! Do you think she is plotting to convert the "secret theatre" into a gas chamber? She kissed an attractive guy FFS SHE DID NOT INVADE POLAND!

The fact you said I'm comparing her to Hitler shows the level of your intelligence. Read it again and come back to me. Here's a clue.. I was referring to the context of your OP, not Stephanie

Ok, let me offer a better (and less hysterical) analogy "even a broken clock tells the right time twice a day"

No I cannot stand her. Her behaviour is disgraceful and her inability to accept she is at fault is just pathetic.

I like that she can stand up for herself and is honest with people rather than bitching behind their back, that takes guts.

She'lll still do exactly what she wants, though, and not think about anyone else.

I think the "standing up for herself" is part of her naturally very combative nature. I see Steph as a manipulator, always the victim - someone else's fault and she's only 22, Gemma's so big she so small etc.
