Absolutely! I'm not saying there is no context that explains why Leia is the way she is. But I am saying that Katie got it worse off as a child and didn't grow up to become a drug dealer or a pimpI will not say that Leia is a good person, she is not. But just as there is a context to Katie behavior, there is for Leia.
The story so far demonstrate that she was way, way more invested in the fooling around than William ever was, Leia deeply loved William and she knew what it meant. While William was dry humping Dana, fucking Mon and whoever he get the chance.
So basically Leia was cucked the entirely of her teenage years, were everybody and their mother fucked William while she was by the side, trying to get a piece herself. And is not like William did not feed to her expectation either, carving their names on trees and whatnot
So after all that, he just disappeared. Without an explanation, without goodbye and never bothered to reach out in some way. Then she basically tries to starve herself to death out of loneliness and depression. Leia has every right to be piss off with William and be cold to him
Neither of this justify her being an evil bitch, just a bitch. But there is context to her behavior just as there is to Katie, Mon or Dana, and the context is that William was a real dick when he was young and now want to do right
Also weren't Wili and Leia in an actual committed relationship as kids? I'm pretty sure there is a scene where they are talking in bed where they mention or imply being boyfriend/girlfriend. The conversation is even about gifts as a milestone celebration in their relationship, right? No doubt Leia got cucked but at least she got to be in an actual relationship with the guy she wants.
Then again may just be my own perception and biases manifesting here. I have a rather low to mid opinion of the main characters in Ocean's games. From both MC's to Leia and Summer. Charming assholes are still assholes.
