[Fine by me to use what I have said about the girls...
Have just heard though that Lisa is not like she appears at all and puts it all on for show and that Louise the plastic surgeon Liason lady regrets doing the show, I am not suprised!!!

Re: Marbella Belles
It's a shame they have regretts, they should be more like Jo who posted here and sort of said "I did it, if you dont like it get over it".
I'm hoping they will do another series after this one finishes.
Love it or hate it, it has been compulsive viewing for a lot of us even if we are cringing behind the sofa and having a sneaky look.
"Marbella Belles even posher"anybody?

Re: Marbella Belles
hi i`m Jo the very bad singer featured in Marbella belles!
I think your reaction is a bit harsh. To say you hate me when you know nothing about me is crazy.
So let me put you straght. . .
I come from london, which i`m very proud of. I have a fantastic family with real east end roots.My mum who at 77 still works for charities is a pearly queen, she spends most days visiting the sick and elderly and raising money for the sick and less fortunate. I am extremely proud of her and the way she has brought me up.
Now a bit about me. I met my husband when i was 17, married at 22 and had my beautiful daughter grace when i was 25, unfortunately my husband left me when grace was only 7 months old and yes as it says on tv she was a friend and had even done the catering at our wedding!
I lost everything home buisness, family. I was devastated as you can imagine.
For the next 4 years i rebuilt my life and concentrated on being a fantastic mother and for extra money i took a job as a barmaid.
I then met the man of my dreams steve(or so thought). we set up home together and lived happily for the next 4 years.Unfortunately steve also had a roving eye! I had to sell up and thats when i came to spain.
Steve followed me and grace over and like a fool i forgave him and we tried to start a new life together in spain.
In the first year we met alot of pretentious fake people, steve was easily impressed and tried to keep in with them. only thing it was my money he was spending!
Yes i was stupid, as not long after steve left me, taking my life savings, car and buisness with him.( that was six years ago and i haven`t seen him since!)
Well that was a hard lesson to learn.I was now living in a rented house and needed to survive so i put an ad in the sur and starting cleaning for 10 euros an hour. My lovely friends Kaye and Peter lent me there old car so i was able to get grace to and from school and peter introduced me to his boss, who was a director of a large real estate company.
I went for an interview got a job in sales did my training and within a few month`s was top sales person. i work extremely hard the hours are long and i don`t see as much of grace as i would like but the rewards are worth it.
I was able to buy my own home, put grace in a private school and afford a nice lifestyle for us both.
I am a very proud mum grace is fluent in spanish and french she is a beautiful fifteen year old with many friends from all over the world, her teachers and my friends all compliment me on how kind, well mannered and grounded she is. You see i brought her up the way my mum brought me up to be kind and generous, not to pre judge people, to be honest, treat people like you would like to be treated yourself and to have fun and enjoy life, that includes laughing at your mums bad singing!
Finally we didn`t order in spanish because it was an italian restaurant.
I don`t have rich husband or boyfriend.
Every penny i spend i`ve earnt myself.
The programme was made tonge in cheek.
i only met the other girls at the photo shoot they all seemed lovely, i also met blue who is beautiful, Lisa is a fantastic mum and of course she knows how to change a nappy!
Don`t believe everything you see and read, its only a laugh, we don`t mind laughing at ourselves.
If we were all dull and boring no one would watch it.
But i guess you`d find something else to moan about, get out have fun learn to laugh and don`t take everything so seriously.

Re: Marbella Belles
I have got to add - Jo's singing 
Thank you Jo for brightening up an otherwise shallow and meaningless programme. At least you put a smile on our faces
