BIG Brother housemate Tom Barber may be in for a rude awakening when he gets out of the house - as his relationship is secretly under threat.

On tonight’s episode of BOTS, 2016 housemate Lateysha Grace revealed that the ‘people’s housemate’ Tom is actually dating her SISTER – and dropped a massive hint that she might split with him when he’s out of the house.

Clearly unimpressed with her sister’s other half and his behaviour in the house, Lateysha told host Rylan Clark-Neal: “I feel like he’s the last person to give relationship advice.”

Rylan immediately poked for more information and told the audience to be quiet as he declared: “S*** just got real!”

Lateysha then took the opportunity to lay into the Swansea lad, and said that she wouldn’t accept it if her boyfriend flirted with other woman on TV the way he had.

"Look, in my opinion, if I had a boyfriend, and he went into the Big Brother house, and he was getting in showers with girls and flirting with girls the way he is, I would be peed off, you know what I mean?"

She then added: "It's horrible for me to watch this as her sister. She's upset and I don't know what's going to happen when he's out of the house. Whether or not she's going to be in a relationship with him...he's the last person that should be giving relationship advice, let's just leave it at that."

She later admitted that she thought that Tom was playing a game in the house, and said: “He’s just with that clique. He’s just blending in, being nice to everyone so he don’t get them votes – I ain’t buying it.

Tom is one of three housemates up for eviction this week – with Charlotte Keys and Joe Quaranta also lined up for the chop on Friday’s live show.

During his time in the house, he has come under fire for his laddish behaviour with pals Lotan Carter and Kieran Lee - with viewers accusing him of following Lotan around before he was removed from the house for violent threats.

He was also pulled into the diary room after Big Brother deemed a "prank" pulled on housemate Savannah O'Reilly was "sexually intimidating" after one raucous night where he forced a naked Lotan on top of Savannah who was laying in her bed.

At one point Tom pushed Lotan onto Savannah’s bed and then repositioned the Dreamboys stripper so his naked bum was near Savannah’s head.

Savannah initially dismissed the incident, and said: “If anybody did it on purpose to put me in an uncomfortable position, like, obviously that would be a different story. But, like, neither of them were doing it, like, for that reason so… Boys being boys.”

But then after a pause, she continued: “If I hadn’t been under the covers then it would have been a different story. But obviously I had the covers to protect me.”

She then added: “The weight of them on the two of me was the bit that I was screaming at them to get off me for”.

Big Brother then brought him into the diary room and declared: “Tom, this is an example of unacceptable sexual intimidation and a gross invasion of another housemates personal space.

"You forced someone’s genitals into close proximity to another person apparently in an attempt at humour. You invaded both Savannah and Lotan’s personal space in a sexually forceful way.

“Big Brother thinks this was totally unacceptable and a serious breach of the Big Brother rules.”

Tom was then given a formal and final warning and threatened with ejection from the reality competition if he were to cross another line.

  • Big Brother airs tonight at 10pm on Channel 5.
