Louis Walsh still in Celebrity Big Brother feud as co-star admits they’re not speaking

Louis Walsh, a former X Factor judge, has been a subject of a Celebrity Big Brother dispute since leaving last year because he refused to communicate with his coworkers.

Louis Walsh entertained the nation on Celebrity Big Brother last year, yet did ruffle some feathers when it came to savage remarks towards housemates. The X Factor icon dished the dirt on Simon Cowell, hit out at “vile” Jedward and shared his true feelings on “talentless” Ronan Keating.

He was hilariously scolded by pal Sinitta for his behaviour in the show, having entered with pal and former colleague Sharon Osbourne. It wasn’t just celebrities outside the Big Brother house that Louis took aim at, as he didn’t hold back his thoughts on David Potts, who went on to win.

Louis continued to make his comments throughout the CBB house even though he had previously said that Louis and his housemates were “were supposed to be celebrities” and that he didn’t know any of them when he left. However, Louis revealed to his co-stars that he wanted to stay in touch with them and that he would give them his number in a surprise move in the final episode.

Yet he didn’t follow through as he was very selective as to who he wanted to stay in touch with. Winner David has revealed to the Mirror that he was quickly snubbed by Louis after leaving the iconic house. Sharing who he is still in touch with, David told us: “Me and Brad are still very close, I also chat with Lauren, Zeze, and Colson.”

“Me and Sharon DM each other on Instagram now and then, but I’ve not spoken to Louis,” David revealed. Louis admitted he only gave his phone number to two other housemates, and wasn’t interested in keeping in contact with anyone else – besides his dear friend and former X Factor co-star, Sharon.

“I didn’t give David my number – he’s a nice guy but he sings too much. I gave my number to Lauren and I loved Marisha. She’s a great girl,” Louis said on BBC Radio 2. Louis and Sharon got off on a bad foot with David when they first locked eyes on him. The iconic duo were tasked with reliving their X Factor days and had to judge their housemates as they arrived.

As the former Boyzone manager said, “No we don’t want to see those legs, we don’t want to see those legs,” Louis and Sharon sat down in a hidden room. Additionally, there is too much fake tan. She grinned and said, “Oh no, no no, cover it up.” When they finally met, Louis made an appearance to compliment David with the line, “At least you’re individual.”

“Louis is the thing,” David replied. What anyone thinks of me in any way is my fault. And I’ll take your opinion into consideration, but I won’t say a word. When he turned his phone back on after leaving the show, the reality TV star revealed that he had “so many messages” about what Sharon and Louis had said about him.

He told Casino.org on behalf of the Mirror: “I mean, it didn’t surprise me that Louis and Sharon put me in the bottom and prejudged me. It is something that I’ve dealt with quite a lot, and still deal with now. Like, I just think people just see some tall, big boy with little tiny shorts and think ‘What in the world is going on there?’ and I think it’s just because people see it as not being ‘normal’, but if it was a girl who walked in with tiny shorts on, would anyone have been bothered? I don’t think so.”

They had a job, according to David, and that’s what they had to do: “They had to judge people because that’s the game,” so they must of course do that. And we all agreed to participate. You see, I wasn’t taking it seriously; instead, I was so jittery.

I would have had to play the game first, because it is based on first impressions, so I would have had to do it. It was based on what they had seen when we entered, so it is what it is because they didn’t get to meet any of us beforehand.
