The problem Bethany will have...


With having a mum not that much older than herself is that any men she takes a shine to may potentially be more interested in her mother, especially if she's attractive. It was usually the case for Zoe Slater in EastEnders. Poor Bethany has had a crush on two lads now and both of them have got with Sarah.

Zowee I remember had the hots for the Trueman mon doctor with zero personality, but he went bango with Kat Wallace

But, at the time... Zowee though she be Kat's sister, and not mother and daughter, hana

True, but they are only crushes on Bethany's side. If she was to have a relationship with Gary it would be a bit creepy.

I think that it could be interesting if Bethany and Sarah started fighting over the same man. I think that Bethany does look authentically thinner in this week's episodes.

Gary's between them in age. I think that he's about 24 or 25? He could be with either of them realistically but he has more in common with S, as a parent himself. Also - Bethany is legally of age, but I still think that it's a tad creepy when a man in his mid 20s or older goes for a girl of that age. Teens should be with teens.

Yeah, I was a little disturbed when my 16 year old cousin started seeing a 24 year old guy, but 15 years later they are still together.
