Why Did Carolyn Kill Villanelle?
Well, the characters, Carolyn and Villanelle in Killing Eve have been portrayed by Fiona Shaw and Jodie Comer respectively. By now, you must have understood that Carolyn somehow got involved in the death of Villanelle. But why?
Carolyn had to get herself saved from Villanelle’s group, on the way back into M16 by getting rid of The Twelve. That was the major reason why Carolyn killed Villanelle. It was made by her speaking “Jolly good” into a walkie-talkie. It was the latter’s foolishness that she got into Carolyn’s plan and got rid of The Twelve. Eve tried to help her, but she stopped fighting against her injuries. That finally led to Villanelle’s death.
Even though the actual reason behind Carolyn killing Villanelle is still not known, it follows the envy and jealousy that usually grows in human beings. Eve and Villanelle could have a happy life together, but Carolyn didn’t like that and failed to cope. That’s what the viewers have assumed about Villanelle’s murder.
