Celebrity Big Brother viewers saw tension brewing between EastEnders star Patsy Palmer and TOWIE’s Ella Rae Wise on the ITV show tonight when the housemates played a game

Celebrity Big Brother viewers have reacted to tension between Patsy Palmer and Ella Rae Wise. It came during a discussion between some of the remaining housemates on the ITV show about their personal lives.

Ten celebrities remain in the Big Brother house in the new series, which launched last week. The group includes EastEnders cast member Patsy – who was saved by the public from the second eviction on Tuesday night – and the Only Way is Essex star Ella.

Tensions began to rise on tonight’s episode between Patsy and Ella amid the housemates playing a game of ‘Never Have I Ever’ together. RuPaul’s Drag Race UK winner Danny Beard asked his fellow housemates if they had ever “hooked up with a really famous person”. Ella then teased: “Never Have I Ever had a really famous celebrity in my DMs.”

Ella went on to say that she had a “naughty one,” because “he’s got a wife,” message her on social media. Patsy told her: “No, you better not share that. Don’t share things about people with wives.” She then told Chesney Hawkes: “I hate that kind of thing. It brings it low. Like, we’re not scum of the earth.”

Addressing the reaction, Ella said: “Why is everyone so serious today? Pats made me feel really bad about saying that. But I didn’t reply to the DMs. I didn’t reply.”

Patsy added: “I think it’s sometimes good to flag up because everyone gets carried away. You do have to be protective of yourself because you might regret it in the morning. You know how things can go and it’s not nice.” Following the remarks, Ella assured that the message had been received from the celebrity – whom she didn’t name – before he had been married.

Viewers shared their thoughts on X. One person wrote: “Ella totally backtracked when Patsy called her out on it.” Another said similarly in a post tonight: “Ella changing her story after Patsy rightly so told her not to mention anything about a married man. ‘Oh he wasn’t married then’ please.”

A third said: “Ella genuinely made it sound like he had a wife at the time of the DM and he messaged back. like she wanted to stir the pot then changed the story to he never replied and before he had a wife?” Alongside a laughing and crying emoji, one fan said: “THE BACKTRACKING FROM ELLA ‘No this was before he was married’.” Someone else said: “Lmfao Ella backtracking saying he wasn’t married yet…”

Others agreed with Patsy over the situation. One fan wrote: ” Yeah Patsy [is] right on that one, Ella keep quiet on that one..” Someone else said: “Patsy right why does Ella have to advertise someone else life that maybe don’t want to be exposed.”

Some viewers instead appeared disappointed that Patsy shut down the discussion. One person wrote: “I get what Patsy is trying to say but I also wanted to know who slid into Ella’s DMs smh.” Another said: “Oh Ella get yourself back on the Challenge! You can share that juicy gossip on there without the likes of Patsy getting upset.”

It isn’t the first time that Ella has spoken about her personal life on Celebrity Big Brother. She was seen in tears last week just days into the experience whilst speaking to JoJo Siwa and Angellica Bell about her latest relationship coming to an end recently.

Ella had been in a relationship with TOWIE co-star Dan Edgar prior to entering the Big Brother house. Last week though, it was announced that they had split up, with Ella then telling her co-stars that it happened “like a week ago”.

After saying that she was “alright,” Ella was seen in tears as the other two housemates comforted her. She said: “Thank you. It’s just one of them things. I just feel like an idiot because everyone … I just knew he weren’t gonna be what I wanted him to be. And I thought maybe he might for me but he’s just …”

She told them: “And I don’t want to waste years trying to change someone. Do you know what I mean?” Angellica replied: “That just shows strength.” Ella then commented: “Just have to let it be. It doesn’t mean we can’t be friends.”

Ella had aannounced that her 18 month relationship with Dan had come to an end shortly before entering the Big Brother house last week. She said that while their chemistry was undeniable, she wanted more from the romance than just physical attraction.

She told the Sun: “It was a decision that I had to make because I didn’t feel that we were getting things that we wanted out of each other.” Ella said: “We can be best friends, but if something’s missing, what are we wasting our time for?”

Sharing her thoughts, Ella suggested that Dan is “very set in his ways,” adding that she can’t “expect someone to change”. She added: “And if he’s comfortable in how he is and if he thinks what he gives in a relationship is enough, that’s okay because that can be enough for someone.” Ella continued by stating that it’s “just not enough” for her though.

Dan has since addressed the break-up. He said in a statement: “The past week has seen a strange turn of events and things have been said that I didn’t really want to comment on, but to put it straight, Ella and I agreed to go our separate ways amicably last week, and were speaking right up until she left to go into the house.”

He added in the statement issued last week: “I think we both have our reasons for why it wasn’t working out, but there are certain things in life I would rather keep private. I wish her all the best and hope she enjoys her experience.”

Celebrity Big Brother continues tomorrow night with its live eviction from 9pm on ITV, ITVX, STV and STV Player. Late & Live will then air from 10.30pm on ITV2 and ITVX.

Angellica Bell nominated both Daley Thompson and Patsy Palmer for eviction and then cried as the results were announced – and fans think she was faking the emotion to hide her guilt

Angellica Bell became emotional during Celebrity Big Brother tonight, but fans think they were crocodile tears. The CBBC alum started crying after the nominations were revealed, despite having voted for the very two people facing eviction.

Retired athlete Daley Thompson and EastEnders star Patsy Palmer were the two who got the most nominations from their housemates and could be facing the boot from the public. Daley was nominated by Patsy alongside Chris Hughes and comedian Donna Preston.

Meanwhile, Patsy was nominated by Chris. Danny Beard, former Dance Moms star JoJo Siwa and the Only Way is Essex’s Ella Rae Wise. Notably, Angellica also voted for both Patsy and Daley as her two choices.

As soon as Big Brother announced the nominees the celebs were quickly distracted by Angellica, who seemed to be quietly crying at the news. As people asked what was up, she said: “Just know, everyone, it’s really emotional for me as well. Just that I love you all. I’m going to have a shower, it’s quite stressful isn’t it.”

“Bless you Angellica,” someone said as she started walking away, while Patsy said: “Honestly, don’t be stressed because I’m fine with it.” “It’s a game, it’s fine,” Daley said, with Angellica having already left the room. Patsy added: “Everyone’s got to go, we’re not just in there saying nothing are we?”

On X, formerly known as Twitter, fans quickly noted that Angellica had nominated both Patsy and Daley, and suggested she was covering her tracks with her emotional response. “Both of Angellica’s nominee’s facing eviction- the guilt hit her then,” one person said, with another adding: “Angellica showing love but nominated Patsy WTF?”

“Angellica you voted for Patsy, don’t be two faced dorlin,” with someone else pointing out that “she voted Daley too.” Another fan simply joked: “Angellica and Patsy were besties on launch night and now they’re starting to despise each other lollll.”

This isn’t the first time Angellica has broken down in tears on the show. The star recently shared an emotional chat with fellow housemate Danny, who told her that she was his inspiration growing up – and Angellica gushed over her children’s TV career.

“I’m really proud of it, but it is quite emotional,” she while holding back the tears. “What I love about children is that they’re so open, they’re not tarnished by sinisterism, the world or by life.”

The star then went on to tell a story about a letter she found from a young girl who wrote to her. “She sent a picture of herself and her brother, and she said that she wants to get into acting – and by watching me she’s going to go for her dreams.

“Obviously her name’s on it, so I looked her up, and she’s gone on to be a teacher, and she went to drama school,” Angellica explained with tears in her eyes. “I feel like they’re my babies.”
