Nicola McLean, who appeared on Celebrity Big Brother in 2012 and 2017, criticizes Jack P Shepherd, who also appeared in the show, and claims she was blocked by a finalist.
Former Celebrity Big Brother favourite Nicola McLean has hit out at Celebrity Big Brother winner Jack P Shepherd in a brutally honest rant while also revealing she’s been blocked on Instagram by one of this year’s finalists despite being a vocal supporter.
Nicola, who appeared on the hit reality show in the 2012 and 2017 seasons, was open about her disappointment with the results this year. Before the unanticipated snub, the glamour model and TV personality admitted she was rooting for a different finalist. She is known for her unfiltered commentary and iconic rows in the CBB house.
She exclusively stated, “I absolutely loved him! ” when it was revealed that Danny Beard had blocked her. He was always my winner, I’ve always been that way.
“I love a gay, we know this. I’m so part of the LGBTQ+ community, I absolutely support it. But here’s the kicker, he blocked me on Instagram. I was shocked. I hadn’t posted anything bad, only support.”
She continued, “I think his management did it, or perhaps he has a filter for certain words, but I hadn’t even tagged him yet”!
“I was so tempted to email and ask why supporting someone would block me, but I then realized what the point was. Still, it was disappointing.
Nicola then turned her sights on Coronation Street star Jack P Shepherd, who was crowned winner of the ITV reboot weeks ago. “Jack didn’t deserve to win. I don’t know how he won,” she said.
“Can you tell me how I went in twice, entertained the nation, drank a lot of prosecco, and he drank tea, sat quietly, and triumphed?” It’s gutting, to be honest.
The outspoken contestant then demanded that contestants’ methods of compensation be reconsidered. She said, “I believe they should change the way they do fees because it should reward the most entertaining.”
“People always make up fees,” they say. Someone once said, “Where the hell did you get that from? I got $7,500 for I’m a Celebrity,” and I called the journalist. No one does it “for that little” purpose.
“But to get back to the point: it’s wrong to go there, sit there, and take the money,” she said. You were made to entertain you, I assure you.
Nicola, who famously clashed with Kim Woodburn and had memorable moments with Jedward in her time on Celebrity Big Brother, remains one of the most talked-about housemates in the show’s history – and clearly hasn’t lost her fiery edge.
