Worried about Leisha

S10 UK

Leisha's behaviour has been worrying me from the beginning and everyone, especially the experts, are ignoring it. I think she exhibits some signs of BPD and I don't say this to diagnose, but to call for action because I believe she was exploited.

When we saw Leisha and Reiss on their wedding day, her family were very open about the fact that she's worryingly full on, almost like it was a much deeper issue that they've been forced to acknowledge. Throughout the experiment, she's triangulated with other contestants (telling Leah about the kiss and playing it off like it's nothing) and she has twisted stories to fit narratives. She is absolutely terrified of being abandoned and has been open about the fact that she has no sense of self without Reiss, two hallmarks of BPD. She's pushed Reiss to his limit throughout the experiment and then pulled him back in by switching up her argument. She splits on him, switching between thinking he's the bees knees and thinking he's a devil. She is very emotionally unstable, all in all, and they've clearly had problems with her alcohol consumption before. She's erratic, impulsive and paranoid.

I think that Channel 4 knew about this, and the reason why Reiss is blamed is because they don't want to dip their toes into that water with Leisha. If they were to confront her behaviour, it'd open a can of worms that they'd be liable for. Better to pretend they didn't and derive as much drama as possible from this poor woman.
