Phillip Schofield is bookies' favourite to join Celebrity Big Brother as surprise newcomer

It's just a matter of days until the Celebrity Big Brother final, but one housemate has unfortunately fallen at the last hurdle. Host AJ Odudu revealed that one contestant was secretly evicted from the iconic house on Wednesday, 20 March and is already in "hiding" with their identity being kept under wraps.The backdoor exit will air on Thursday's (21 March) show, with either Louis Walsh, Nikita Kuzmin, Fern Britton, Bradley Riches, Colson Smith or David Potts being told to leave. Prior to the eviction, all six of the remaining housemates were under the impression they had made it to the Celebrity Big Brother final.

Tensions are running high in Celebrity Big Brother as Fern Britton confronts Nikita Kuzmin over a comment he made at the TV presenter, leaving the Strictly star confused. In scenes set to unfold on Tuesday, 19 March, Fern pours a drink for Nikita while the housemates are gathered around the sofas playing a game and says: "You and I get on alright when we’re playing games.

The final date for ITV's Celebrity Big Brother has been revealed, and it's very soon. Celebrity Big Brother was off our TVs for a while after its last show on Channel 5 in 2018. But now it's back on ITV and has had viewers hooked ever since it started at the beginning of the month.

David Potts might be best known for his reality TV stints, but the Celebrity Big Brother favourite has also set his sights on a brand new career.The 30-year-old first rose to fame on Ibiza Weekender in 2016 and later its successor Kavos Weekender – which follows contestants in their twenties as they spend time at a Greek hotel resort. But the star has been thriving on CBB and forming friendships with the likes of Louis Walsh, Strictly pro dancer Nikita Kuzmin, and former Love Island star Ekin-Su Cülcüloglu. In fact, before even heading into the house, David admitted to being a “natural born leader” and compared himself to Mufasa from The Lion King.

Sharon Osbourne has revealed who she thinks is the biggest game player on Celebrity Big Brother, after leaving the famous house following an eight-day stint.The X Factor icon, who was in the house as a 'temporary lodger', chatted with hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best about her experience on the show after leaving on Tuesday (13 March) evening. When asked who she thought was "playing the game'' the most, Sharon initially tried to avoid answering.

Sarah Jayne Dunn, who played Mandy Richardson on Hollyoaks for over 20 years, has called Love Island star Ekin-Su Culculoglu a 'hypocrite' for comments she made about OnlyFans. Sarah was let go from the Channel 4 soap in 2021 after she joined the adult subscription site, a decision she still stands by as one of her best. However, she wasn't happy with Ekin-Su's comments about the site on Celebrity Big Brother.

Viewers of Celebrity Big Brother seem to have cracked Louis Walsh's approach to the game and think he's keen on an early exit with his pal Sharon Osbourne. Monday's episode saw the celebs at the famous ITV house getting their votes in on nomination day. After much discussion, the celebrities ended up nominating Louis, ZeZe Mills and Lauren Simon for eviction.

Phillip Schofield was left heartbroken when his former friend Fern Britton "decided she didn't want to do This Morning any more".The 61 year old TV star, who used to present the ITV show with Fern, has admitted that he "still misses her deeply" and has tried to mend their friendship over the years. However, he understands that Fern, who is currently in the Celebrity Big Brother house, has "moved on". Fern co-hosted This Morning with Phillip from 1999 to 2009.Their working relationship ended on a sour note when Fern decided to leave the show.

Louis Walsh is currently a housemate in the latest edition of Celebrity Big Brother. Before heading into the house, the 71 year old's appearance on the show quickly made headlines. Especially because it was widely reported that he'd be reuniting on TV with his old X Factor co star, Sharon Osbourne, for the first time in seven years.

Believe it or not, it’s almost time for the first round of Celebrity Big Brother evictions - and we already know who will face the public vote. Big Brother has revealed that Gary Goldsmith and Lauren Simon will be the first housemates to face the vote from viewers ahead of the first live eviction of the series on Friday 8 March.

Celebrity Big Brother viewers have been shouting about 'favouritism' as they made the same complaint about Sharon Osbourne's latest appearance in the house. The 71-year-old was the first person to be seen entering the iconic house when the celebrity version of the show returned on Monday (March 4).

Celebrity Big Brother viewers have been left making the same observation about Fern Britton as she settles in to the iconic house. The broadcaster and author was among the famous faces who signed up to the celebrity version of the reality series that has been revived by ITV following the success of the civilian series in October.

Fern Britton threatened to quit Celebrity Big Brother if Phillip Schofield enters the house.

Fern Britton dramatically shared that she would walk out of the Celebrity Big Brother house if her former This Morning co-star Phillip Schofield entered the house as a late entrant. Discussing the daytime TV show with fellow housemate Gary Goldsmith, Fern said that she thinks Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley will be great hosts for the show.The conversation then turned to Phillip, whom Fern had presented alongside for a number of years.

Former This Morning host Fern Britton has been heavily rumoured to be heading into the Big Brother house and she's reportedly ready to lift the lid on "many" things. A source has now revealed to OK! that CBB has come at the perfect time for Fern: "She feels she’s had a rough time recently – she’s spoken about her gastric band and also got divorced from her husband of 20 years, Phil, and she feels the public took his side – so it would be a time for her to remind everyone of what she can do and that she’s a good person.

Famed for not holding back on her opinions, Fern Britton has officially entered the Celebrity Big Brother house, and many can't wait to see what she has to say. However, one star who would seemingly rather Fern doesn't spill too many secrets is Vanessa Feltz, who has revealed that there are things she hopes the former This Morning presenter keeps quiet on. Speaking to OK! at the Together For Short Lives Ball on Monday evening, Vanessa shared: "Fern Britton is in there [Celebrity Big Brother] and is going to be saying all sorts of things that I maybe hope she doesn't say." While Vanessa didn't expand on what her worries are directly related to, it could be something to do with their respective relationships with This Morning presenter Phillip Schofield.

ITV Celebrity Big Brother's 2024 winner already appears to be a sealed deal as most of the leading bookmakers all agree.

Fern Britton said she joined Celebrity Big Brother for a new adventure - and not to 'spill the beans' on her former colleague Phillip Schofield. The hit reality show relaunched on ITV on Monday night (March 4) after six years away.

Ellie Leach was quick to show her support for Colson Smith as he was seen entering the Celebrity Big Brother house. The Coronation Street star was among the famous faces revealed as having signed up for the first CBB in six years.
