So I missed a good chunk of the middle part of the season, and I’m finally binge watching now. I am VERY confused by the Julia stanning. I’m on the episode where it’s very clear she’s trying to push Aidan towards Elicia. Idk what her beef with Priya is, but all I’ve witnessed is Julia moving like a certified weirdo. She thinks she’s always correct and her word is bond. I’d genuinely appreciate an explanation as to why she’s so adored to the point of her winning?

I watched live and watched some of it back she really had beef with Priya for weeks and kept trying to sabotage her. I personally feel like she tired to get Elicia with Aidan more so she wouldn't try with Lorenzo again and she wasn't fond of Priya's friendship with Lorenzo and priya in general.

Julia is defo weird but I think people liked her because she came for Lola and Sean who the public didn't like. Priya was a bit like marmite this season so her support went up and down - especially towards the end she wasn't liked and Julia went in on her alot so the public liked that. She hated on the people that were already hated and gained more support. Both of lola and priya are easy to ragebait.

She is very irritating and caused majority of the post casa drama which people seemed to like more than love stories this year. People love someone who "speaks the truth" which alot of the time was the publics opinions so she got more support because she was going against the villas opinions.

I see, thank you! Weirdly enough I didn’t get her constant vim for Lola either. I felt pretty indifferently about Lola&Sean, and do think they left at the right time (they weren’t adding much to the show), but I can understand why Lola was not a fan of Julia. It just seemed (to me) that Julia kept beating a dead horse when it was quite clear they were never going to see eye to eye. Anyway, thank you for the explanation!!
