Big Brother star Cameron B has openly discussed his life after the show and his thoughts on his ex-roommate George Gilbert leaving.
Bolton’s very own Cameron B has finally left the Big Brother house, and he’s bringing his signature noise and charm with him. After weeks of drama, debates and unforgettable telly moments, the self-proclaimed “loud idiot from Bolton” is back home — and he’s setting the record straight on life after eviction, house divides, and, yes, that housemate George Gilbert.
George, the housemate who’s dominated headlines for all the wrong reasons, recently revealed the real reason he was removed from the house following repeated use of unacceptable language and behaviour. The parish councillor, 23, was given a formal warning by Big Brother during Monday night’s episode after he made a fellow housemate cry by apparently mocking them. George has now opened up about the situation on his Youtube channel.
The series’ lightning rod was formed by his polarizing presence, conflicting statements, and strong opinions. What then does Cameron actually believe?

“George is a very smart guy,” Cameron says carefully. “Like, genuinely intelligent. He’s got big ideas about the world — some of them, I’ll be honest, I don’t agree with. And I think a lot of people don’t.”
Cameron makes a thoughtful pause. He is, however, entitled to his opinions. Everyone has. The issue was with how they were presented. I believe he occasionally misarticulated them.
George said he was ‘distraught’ after getting a verbal warning on the first night in the house. George told his housemates that he “doesn’t believe that anyone is intrinsically good or evil” and went on to use the most extreme example of Adolf Hitler. It was George’s views that got him kicked out of the Big Brother house in the end as he admitted that he pushed the boundaries far too much.
Cameron shakes his head when asked whether he had witnessed any online behavior that has caused such a stir. Not directly, but no. However, I did hear some of his comments, and yes, they made people feel bad. He has a voice that sounds harsher than he actually is.
He’s not defending the comments, but he’s keen to add nuance. “I know he’s going to get bad stick, and I get why,” Cameron admits. “But I don’t think deep down he’s a bad person. I think sometimes he tries too hard to sound clever, and it comes out… interestingly. That’s the best word I’ve got for it — interestingly.”
Cameron grins as he reclines and says, “I’m good, like a million dollars.” It might even make a room sparkle. “Love it back in Bolton, back with my close friends,” the saying goes.
Since stepping out of the famous Big Brother doors, he’s been met with cheers, selfies and plenty of love. “There’s been people coming up asking for pictures — which I’ve cherished, honestly,” he says. “To even think I’m worthy of a picture is mad. It’s wild right now, but I’m loving every second.”
He was referred to as the loud one by viewers and neighbors, but Cameron isn’t getting into a fight. It says what on the tin, doesn’t it? he chuckles “I was loud when I entered, and I was loud when I exited.” That’s me alone.
More importantly, Cameron insists he never once tried to tone it down. “I always said I’d rather be my true self and go out the first day than fake it to the final,” he says proudly. “I think that’s what Big Brother’s about – showing who you are. I’d rather people know the real me, warts and all.”
Viewers could sense the house’s tension from the outside, and Cameron confirms that this was very real. He claims that “there was division, there were alliances, and I called it.” Some people thought I was crazy, but since I’ve left, things have only grown more apart.
Cameron points to Nancy, one of his closest roommates, as someone who also saw it coming. He reveals that “Me and Nancy had a lot of conversations that never even made it on television.” You can feel the house splitting, we both said. It’s exactly what occurs when two people interact.
Naturally, Nancy grew to be one of Cameron’s closest confidants inside. He fondly remark, “She’s a lovely girl.” We’d have a conversation about the day’s events while we were outside in the garden at night. She was emotional on eviction night, which is wonderful, but I told her, “You’re not going anywhere, sweetheart, it’ll be me.” I later discovered I was correct”!
When asked if he would alter anything, Cameron replies, “No, I have no regrets. Not one”.
I remain silent about everything I said or did. I’ll admit it if I’m wrong, and I’ll make up my mind if I’m correct. However, I wouldn’t exchange the experience for anything. The most outrageous thing I’ve ever done is…
He grins and recalls bizarre house experiences, saying, “We used to all be in the jacuzzi and just looking around like we were actually in the Big Brother house!” You occasionally forget. It’s mad”.
One of the series’ standout moments was when Cameron and Feyishola exchanged a fiery argument that quickly went from being calm to being chaos.
He insists that there wasn’t any significant drama in the incident. Feyishola and me were close, and we would always be holding hands at the table. However, I entered on the incorrect day. When they were actually discussing something else, I assumed they were excluding people. I apologize and raised my hands. That’s life, people. Sometimes you’re right, sometimes you’re wrong. Live by the sword, and pass away.
Despite the arguments and alliances, Cameron insists the cast were closer than people realise. “It’s like being part of a big, weird family,” he laughs. “You’ve got your brothers, sisters, maybe one you don’t like as much — but if something happens, you all feel it. We all went through that madness together.”
Tate, Marcus, and Nancy were just three of his close friends, but despite the tension, he wishes everyone well, George included. I hope he emerges, reflects, and develops from it, whatever other people think of him. We have a lot to learn, don’t we? “
How would he sum up the journey to Big Brother? Cameron grins, “Absolutely bloom mental,” without skipping a beat.
The Bolton resident shows that he’s going out the same way he did when he entered: loud, honest, and unfiltered. One thing is certain: Cameron B made a lasting impression, whether you loved him or couldn’t keep up.
Big Brother airs every Sunday through Friday on ITV2 and ITVX at 9 p.m.
