The PE teacher said he wasn't a fan of "fake personality and looks" referring to women who've had plastic surgery.

The comments riled Faye, who earlier said she'd had her lips and boobs done and botox injections.

Hugo said it was his biggest turn off, saying his perfect type is: “Leggy blonde. Not fake.”

That row saw several of the girls take issue with him using the word fake and at one point Hugo was seen breaking down in tears of frustration.
