Evelyn’s character flaws are nothing more and nothing less than what non famous people do/capable of, mostly. Maybe she takes one or two actions a little further but I don’t think she is an awful person. She is a strong character with a strong sense of self and self preservation. She is the epitome of being a women and taking what you want just like any white cis het man.
No Celia St. James on the other hand is down right cruel and selfish. I leave it there because no spoilers.
