Big Brother’s Chanelle McCleary fears axed housemate Kayleigh Morris will unfollow her on Twitter after violent spat as Lotan Carter rues her exit
BIG Brother's Chanelle McCleary was subject to a death threat from axed housemate Kayleigh Morris - but all she was worried about was a potential social media snub.
Last night, reality show fans were left gobsmacked after Ex on the Beach star Kayleigh flew into a range, claiming she would "smash her face in" with a sharp object.
Channel 5 show producers had revealed the hot-head Ex on the Beach star was told to sleep in the spare bedroom before being removed from the bungalow entirely after making “threats of actual violence”.
Yet tonight, pretty Chanelle showed sympathy for her ex contestant and confessed: "It's sad when anyone goes - I am sad she's gone.
"I do understand both sides - she's deffo going to unfollow me on Twitter now."
Today Kayleigh also received sympathy from Dreamboys hunk Lotan Carter, after the bungalow was told the reality star would not be making her return.
He said: "I feel for her.
"Her actions aside, that's not the way to go.
"I'm really, really gutted for her," before adding: "She's not going to follow me now on Twitter is she?"
Rebecca, who had joined Kayleigh in the Diary Room during her wild rage, added: "It's an absolute massive shame."
Some fans were left confused by Lotan's comments, with one posting: "That wasn't the first time Kayleigh has threatened to hurt/ kill someone whilst being on big brother so idk why they're defending her."
Another put: "What's all this s**** about having a fanbase? "Normal" BB housemates SHOULDN'T have a sodding fanbase before entering the show," while a third put: " is not a general spectrum of society. For the first ever I've turned it off. getting worse by the year."
is not nice is she" while another put: "Kayleigh is the worse she has issues, glad they are removed her."
Yesterday, a Big Brother spokeswoman said. "Kayleigh has been removed from the house."
"Big Brother cannot tolerate threats of actual violence in the Big Brother house. This will be covered in tonight's show at 9pm, Channel 5."
The reality star previously claimed she would “kill” Charlotte Crosby if she “had the chance".
An episode last week saw Kayleigh still furious that Charlotte’s best friend Marnie Simpson was in the house, after the former CBB winner “humiliated” her by sleeping with her ex-boyfriend Adam Gabriel on Ex On The Beach.
In a conversation with Gemma Collins about why she didn’t want to speak to Marnie, Kayleigh said: “I don’t know Marnie but obviously her best friend I would kill if I had the chance to, obviously I’m trying to distance myself.”
She may be used to all the drama in Essex, but even Gemma seemed shocked, asking: “Why do you feel that way because that’s a pretty strong feeling?”
“Because she publicly humiliated me on TV,” said Kayleigh calmly.
“That’s not Marnie’s fault,” reasoned Gemma.
Seconds later Marnie entered the room and told Kayleigh: “The only reason I have a problem with you is things you’ve said in the press about Charlotte and stuff.”
“I’ve said some nasty things about her,” agreed Kayleigh.
To which Marnie responded: “I just don’t know why because she’s so lovely.”
“But she wasn’t though,” said Kayleigh. “I would have said that and I said but after what she’s done to me, now I don’t think that.”
