Aside from their phalange filled date, an all-out war between Sogand Mohtat and Abbie Chatfield erupted last night. Once again, the archenemies went head to head as the Persian queen accused the 23-year-old of lying about wanting children.
After Sogand took the opportunity earlier in the day to bitch about Abbie to Matt's friend Kate (who had popped into the mansion to say a quick hello and veto anyone she didn't like), word got back to Abbie. Obviously, she was pretty unhappy to hear that Sogand had essentially passed a note to Matt in class saying she wasn't there for the right reasons and that she had been lying and was fake and blah blah blah (we've heard it all a few times over).
"It feels as though Sogand is just trying to sabotage me, to be honest," Abbie began. She doesn't want me anywhere near Matt. She doesn't want Matt to like me 'cause she thinks I'm a threat. Oh, it's exhausting. I'm just honestly like... It's just a joke. Before all this with Sogand, I was really confident with my connection with Matt, and now... I'm probably going home."
So she did what anyone who'd been stuck in a confined space with a bunch of girls all battling to win the heart of one hunky Bachie would: she asked for a chat.
"All I said to [Kate] was I thought you had different intentions to what you're showing in front of Matt," an incredibly not-fussed-in-the-slightest Sogand told Abbie, who was flashing wounded-puppy-dog eyes.
"You didn't want to get married and have kids. All of a sudden, you do want to get married, you do want to have kids. And you change your personality in front of Matt," an angry Sogand said.
And she Just. Kept. Going.
"Like I said, I had my doubts about you, like 90 per cent of the girls here. No-one else wants to say it to your face. Sorry, babe. Just so you know - everyone talks about you behind your back. I just don't know how else to tell you."
EEK!
Earlier this week, Sogand slammed the frontrunner for her "manipulative" behaviour, claiming she's "putting on an act" to try and win the astrophysicist over.
"I couldn't hold back after seeing how Abbie was one way in front of us girls when the cameras were rolling, then another way to Matt. She is a manipulator and it is time I tell her how it is," she dished to Sunday Confidential.
The civil engineer— who scored the first date with the hunky Bachelor— also revealed she wouldn't normally associate with "people like Abbie" and still can't comprehend her "malicious" behaviour which she says was the cause of "all this drama".
"I think she is very young and I don't think she understands that some of us are older and can see through the bulls--t," she claimed.
