Dita Garbo, the most recent queen eliminated from RuPaul's Drag Race UK season 6, expressed gratitude for Chanel O'Conor's support during her difficult time, stating, "Chanel was the only queen that actually knew what was going on in my head." Her story highlights the camaraderie and emotional support that can develop among contestants during intense competition.
The 47-year-old Dita highlighted her role as the oldest contestant in the season, proudly stating, "It's an honour to be the oldest and also show that I'm just as relevant as any of the youngsters. I'm the oldest youngest-looking queen, darling!" She emphasized that age sees no barrier in performance and relevance in the drag community.
During her elimination, Dita reflected on the pressure to perform and the expectations from fellow contestants. She noted, "When Kiki and I both knew that we were going to be lip-syncing against each other, I think all the girls were expecting an iconic lip-sync because they knew that we're both performers. I think we delivered on that." The focus on performance and reputation among peers was significant.
Dita also shared the emotional weight she carried into filming, particularly due to it being the anniversary of her mother’s death. She remarked, "The night before we filmed that, I was really in my head about stuff knowing what that next day was going to be." This reveals the deeper personal struggles contestants may face alongside the competitive environment.
