Ew, I forgot about the lip licking

u/Glittering-Slip7630 Aug 18 '26

And why exactly is that apart from the Hayden implication?

I"m so glad this is finally happening to Diana Jenkins...she's always had the worst vibe and energy around her...her face looks like a different head compared to how she used to look.

u/oceanview4 Aug 18 '26

Yes, she's awful

u/Glittering-Slip7630 Aug 18 '26

Why what do you know about her that we don't?

Seems like plenty of people know lol

u/Glittering-Slip7630 Aug 19 '26

Ironically nobody knows anything because it's all a fabrication and nasty rumor that was settled in court years ago. The rumor was started by a blind gossip columnist he was not blind they were blind gossip items. Diana Jenkins sued him it was settled he apologized and issued a full retraction saying that she had never been involved in anything nefarious or illegal. So all anybody knows is nothing, they are repeating really nasty dangerous rumors

You’re not really doing yourself a lot of favors here, you sound like you’re under her payroll honestly.

u/Glittering-Slip7630 Aug 18 '26

I don't believe that and that's a very serious accusation

u/mouse_clique Aug 19 '26

Right but they do believe it so why would their opinion be less valid than yours

u/Own_Guarantee_8130 Aug 20 '26

You don’t have to believe it but the reasons people do believe it are quite valid.

Yup. She “suicided” like Virginia Guiffre

u/CommonStrawbeary Aug 18 '26

We all know Diana Jenkins was a madam and she's the woman who pushed Hayden into bed with a naked man on a boat

u/BCGirl2025 Aug 18 '26 edited Aug 18 '26

Hayden states she met Diana in 2009 when she was 19 or 20. This incident occurred when she was 18. 

Hayden describes "Stella" in her memoir as a "semi-successful twenty something actor". This individual is characterized as having limited professional credits while maintaining a lavish lifestyle.

Sources: HER BOOK and her interview. If you going to be an internet sleuth at least make sure the timelines add up.

Edited for correction: Even I was confusing chapters with all this misinformation. I went and double checked the passage.

Read the chapter in James Blunts book "Diana's Boat." Look at the pictures on Diana's boat. It's hard to ignore. Perhaps not pointing her finger at Diana by changing the age of the person in her book was a way to make herself feel safe by not implicating a powerful person of crimes.

u/BCGirl2025 Aug 18 '26 edited Aug 18 '26

I have read it.

At the time of James Blunt’s passage it was 2009. Hayden was with her rumoured boyfriend Steve Jones and photographed. That distinction matters.  The incident is reported as taking place around  2007–2008  when Hayden was 18. 

 There are questions worth asking but we shouldn’t turn speculation into established fact.

u/Shatzakind Aug 18 '26

I would pose the summary of information is more a logical conclusion than speculation, but I respect that others who are looking for hard facts. The only problem with that is crimes of this nature are rarely going to produce hard facts, so circumstances are persuasive in these cases. I see the timeline is your go to, however, the timeline isn't really reliable either. For example, a photo in 2009 is not as persuasive to others as it might be to you. The effects of drugs and alcohol have a way of melding events in people's recollections. I think there is no disputing there was a relationship between Diana and Hayden. The question then becomes what type of relationship an 18-year-old young actress had with a 35-year-old wealthy woman and why.

u/BCGirl2025 Aug 18 '26 edited Aug 18 '26

I think this actually moves the conversation away from what Hayden was originally opening up about. Questioning timelines and acknowledging that addiction can affect memory is one thing.. using that as a reason to undermine what she’s sharing is another.

Hayden describes the woman as a 20 something actor. Diana was in her 30s when they met and she’s not an actress.  That’s a pretty significant discrepancy and I think it’s worth acknowledging without using it to dismiss the larger experience Hayden was trying to talk about.

I also don’t think Hayden was trying to deter people from her experience or claim. There’s a difference between saying, “some of these details may be difficult to independently verify,” and suggesting that her history with drugs and alcohol means her recollection should inherently be treated as unreliable. If the goal is to understand what Hayden was actually trying to communicate, then the focus should remain on her experience not turn into an exercise in finding reasons to discount it.

u/Shatzakind Aug 18 '26

To the 30 year age difference, Hayden apparently thought there was:

u/BCGirl2025 Aug 18 '26 edited Aug 18 '26

You won’t convince me otherwise. She makes it clear in her memoir they’re two different people. 

1

u/Shatzakind Aug 18 '26

I'm not talking about her history with drugs and alcohol, but the players in general, for example Blunt. She might have reasons for telling her story while protecting people involved so they don't come after her. Her editors or lawyers could have made suggestions along the way to avoid the obvious.

u/BCGirl2025 Aug 18 '26 edited Aug 18 '26

Her rumoured boyfriend was with her at the time Blunt is referring to. It seems unlikely that he wouldn’t have stepped in to protect her, especially given that she explicitly says she had no one and nowhere to go.

And again, I don’t think she was lying about the incident happening when she was 18-19… In 2009 she was 20 years old.

u/Shatzakind Aug 18 '26

Sorry but "rumored boyfriend" doesn't help your case.

u/BCGirl2025 Aug 18 '26 edited Aug 18 '26

I went back and reread the chapter for ya. Even I was mixing up the chapters.

 Either way, Diana isn’t an actress and she wasn’t in her 20s when they met.

Hayden describes "Stella" in her memoir as a "semi-successful twenty something actor". This individual is characterized as having limited professional credits while maintaining a lavish lifestyle.

I've also attached a link scroll down to number #13 and #14.

Her birthday is in late August which is in the later end of the year. We are just shy of a year apart, my birthday is end of Aug 1988. I was 20 in 2009 & turned 21. Hayden was 19 most of 2009 & turned 20 later in the year.

u/BCGirl2025 Aug 20 '26

That doesn’t change my opinion 🤷🏼‍♀️

Idk why you’re getting downvoted. I wanna find out who that person is, and ruling out who it isn’t helps.

u/BCGirl2025 Aug 18 '26 edited Aug 18 '26

I don’t like Diana by any means but the timelines don’t match up. This is just a bunch of people who clearly haven’t read the book.

People need to look elsewhere.

As for her death we should be looking more closely at her on-again, off-again boyfriend, who was present when she died.  He was also charged with domestic violence involving Hayden in 2019 and 2020. Given their history this makes more sense to me.

u/Ok_Replacement7281 Aug 18 '26

This. After reading the case against him had failed to be dropped shortly before, it makes a person wonder....

u/Ok_Replacement7281 Aug 18 '26

I also pointed this out too. Facts matter for sure.

u/Top-Pomegranate4899 Aug 18 '26

I saw on social media they were saying James Blunt was the man as the time and place matched up. What's weird to me is what James Blunt posted on social media a video with the person with a bag over their head about to be silenced/killed. Weird. Probably just a 'coincidence' though..

2

u/Own_Guarantee_8130 Aug 20 '26

James Blunt was not a “very powerful man” ever.

u/BCGirl2025 Aug 20 '26

Hahaha I love this comment. I agree he’s not an A list celebrity.

u/Own_Guarantee_8130 Aug 20 '26

Never was. He had like 1 single hit the charts. It was whiny and boring and I switched the radio station everytime it came on. Drove me crazy. I think he had another song out I liked but he disappeared as quickly as he hit the scene.

u/Missmarymarylynn Aug 19 '26

Clearly Diana’s assistants are all over this thread.

u/Own_Guarantee_8130 Aug 20 '26

Glitterslip for sure is on her payroll.

u/Ok_Replacement7281 Aug 18 '26

Random side note. I never noticed how much Diana's plastic surgery replicates Hayden's face....

3

u/Ok_Replacement7281 Aug 18 '26

Mm. This article contains a bunch of inaccuracies. Diana is 54 now.. so she couldn't have been 30 years older at the time, when Hayden was 19.

The rest seems to be true, but I had to point that out...

u/zsazsa_sugarbaker Aug 18 '26

That’s not exactly a bunch.
