I wish she would be given the chance to use her own words and speak at her own pace. This was her LIFE - not an episode of EastEnders! And at one point, Sue asked her a question with a smirk on her face as if she was about to laugh! 🤦🏿‍♀️ Poor journalism. Instead of feeding her life story to her in sound bites, they should ask 1 question at a time and give her a chance to respond. Then process that response with the audience showing empathy. Instead, it made HER look like a reluctant interviewee. She's obviously nervous to be on TV so it's the shows responsibility to put her at ease. As an ex journalist that's my takeaway 🤷🏿‍♀️

18 years? That’s no time at all.

Why not let her share the story? These presenters are acting as an amateurs

She should have been allowed to tell her story. Christine in particular was quite bad - rambling on with the questions instead of asking 1 question only & making space for Vicki to answer.

Im glad she is ok but she kept her married name i would have got rid of that straight away and not have anything to do with him.

my ex was love bombing me but changed when we married. Always check the past relationship.

I am so glad Vicky has found happiness. She is an amazing woman. I remember this so vividly + still my lip curls at the sight of that sorry excuse of a man.

They missed telling what contributed to her surviving the fall.

I felt she was a lovely lady but Christine went on and on too much. You ask a question then stop talking and let the person answer

They normally interview celebrities who know about TV. This interview should of been done on This Morning. This women doesn't know how to be interviewed by three people. Don't blame her
@sararichardson737 10 days ago

Why are they speaking for her? She doesn’t really need to be there. The women is clearly intelligent and they, it is clear, are not.
@amandajoyce6619 10 days ago

Dreadful story. So pleased this lady survived and put her life back together. Dreadful interview by the Ladies. Very dis jointed, too much from them and really no structure to the interview. It felt like much was not said.

I have never been so terrified in my life. This is insane.
