Ruby’s wild behaviours appear to occasionally perplex soap opera star Beth Cordingley as well.

“That’s definitely not how to make friends and influence people,” she remarked in reference to her character’s rants.

“She hasn’t acquired that life skill! When you receive the scripts, it may be extremely annoying because all you can think is, “Oh my God, she’s just rude to everybody.”

Beth defends Ruby’s behaviour by saying that attacking is the best defence for her.

“She seems to speak and act without thinking; she’s very impulsive and spontaneous,” Beth went on.

“Ruby just reacts very fiercely to things and then is often filled with regret afterward.”
