There's been a lot of discussion about this elsewhere, but I think the real final straw for Sophie was to discover that Kris had signed with Neon Management - the one agency she asked him specifically not to have anything to do with.
Sophie has major issues with Dave Read and Neon, and she's made it clear she wants nothing more to do with him.
I think this is the real point behind Sophie's comments that she won't do any publicity-type work with Kris: she doesn't want to make any money for Dave Read...
Her story about being asked to go on holiday with Stuart Pilkington (BB9/Neon client), and pose as his girlfriend, certainly sounds like the crass engineering of an agent. Dave Read was rude about Sophie on BBLB and suggested Kris had moved on, of course this was several weeks ago.
I get the impression, each time that i see Kris, that he is going for 'damage limitation' and Sophie was his angle towards any sort of positive recognition. For instance, where as Lisa developed beyond the
mean to Freddie perception; Kris is unlikely to be seen as anything else.
I wonder how Kris/Neon will react to Sophie's recent comments - and if BB will provide them with a platform to respond? Of course, if Kris has made any progress regarding his popularity over the past 6 weeks, not responding until Sophie leaves the house might be his best option.
