'Too Hot to Handle' Season 6: Katherine LaPrell called out for bizarre behavior
TKCA 1ZZ, TURKS & CAICOS ISLANDS: 'Too Hot to Handle' revolves around rules, but as we all know, rules are made to be broken. Actually, it's generally the greatest rule breakers that shine the brightest on the show - and Katherine LaPrell appears to have known this before entering the villa.
She made it obvious from the start that she would not take commands from a glowing cone, and she created a lot of difficulty in Season 6. When Katherine initially arrived, she set her sights on Charlie Jeer and made out with him almost immediately.
But she had some competition, as Lucy Syed and Kylisha Jag both kissed the English saxophonist. Katherine didn't waste time crying about Charlie choosing Lucy over her; instead, she used her charming abilities once more to get returning competitor Louis Russell to kiss her against the rules.
She didn't stop there, either. Katherine is at the heart of all the mayhem this season after breaking the rules many times with Louis, spending a sensual night together during which she went to great efforts to entice him, and having a wandering eye for a new contender.
On Reddit, not so huge fans of Katherine wrote, "Am I the only one who thinks Katherine is trying too hard to be like Christine and Francesca like over the top reactions and especially in the secret suite." They further added, "This cast is boring and trying too hard."
Redditors took to the comment section to share their opinion writing, "She most definitely is. Her flirting skills are beyond cringe and it doesn’t work on her??? Idk Christina was more suave with it also still kinda cringey." Another person added, "Seeing her kinda throw herself onto Louis reminded me of Christine with her borderline-sexual-harassment flirting."
A fourth user added, "It’s like Christine, but at least Christine can make it somewhat more convincing while being cringe. It just doesn’t work for Katherine, or feel natural on her part."
One Redditor also noted, "I was convinced she was gonna be the Francesca, Emily, Georgia, Kayla of this season. I thought every guy was gonna go after her, but it seems like she’s the one chasing after them. Idk the way she went about begging for a kiss gave me the ick and gave her -1000 in points for her aura. I guess this just proves you need the personality and energy as well."
What happened between Katherine LaPrell and Louis Russell in 'Too Hot to Handle' Season 6?
From the first episode of the season, Katherine was a part of it and made it obvious that she was there to have fun as much as to win the game. Although she didn't mind following the rules, when Louis from the fifth season returned to the show, things started to change.
After chatting with every female, Louis decided to take Katherine out on a date because she seemed to stand out. They got to converse and bond over a romantic supper.
Even though they disobeyed a few regulations and the entire reward money was deducted, the couple didn't hesitate to express their love for one another.
When Katherine and Louis were moved to private quarters with the regulations still in place, it was the last straw. Both displayed incredible patience, and Lana was impressed by their composure.
Louis was concerned that their relationship may alter when Cristian Lager, a new competitor, joined the competition and asked Katherine out on a date. But Katherine was clearly interested in establishing a connection with Cristian and wasn't interested in trying anything new, even if she seemed to love his company.
Louis was happy to hear that she had been faithful and that their relationship had only gotten stronger when she came back to the house.
Are Katherine LaPrell and Louis Russell still together in 'Too Hot to Handle' Season 6?
While Katherine and Christian's date may not have produced any sparks, it was hardly a waste of time. She recognized that, while she enjoyed Louis, she desired a deeper, more intimate connection beyond the sexual.
She was quite pleased to work on this with him, but apparently, things did not go as planned, as seen by the teaser footage, which shows Katherine and Charlie looking dangerously close. "We look hot together," Charlie said as he and Katherine flirted, followed by a to-camera view of Katherine, who stated that she needed to know whether he was serious, "because this could change everything."
If it wasn't enough, the teaser showed Lucy crying. Something has clearly changed, and all indicators lead to Katherine and Charlie hooking up.
