David: 'Bea is coming out of her shell'

David has said that Bea has grown more confident since Freddie's eviction last week.

He spoke about his newfound friendship with Bea after fighting during their first few weeks together.

"I feel a lot closer to Bea," he said yesterday in the Diary Room. "When I look back on how we reacted to each other before it's quite pathetic actually. I've got a lot of time for her.

"Since Freddie's been evicted, I think it's given her confidence. It's almost like she's coming out of her shell. It were almost as if he were pulling her down. She's been a lot more fun, being enthusiastic, having a laugh."

David added that he has forgiven her for previously badmouthing him, saying: "She said to me she said some stuff she feels guilty about in the Diary Room, but I'm not going to hold that against her. We've moved on a hell of a lot.

"She's a lovely girl. I'm not going to slag her off anymore."
