Your support makes all the difference.The Celebrity Big Brother housemates have now waved goodbye to three contestants after Lauren Simon was evicted during Tuesday night’s episode. She follows in the footsteps of the Princess of Wales’s uncle, Gary Goldsmith, who became the first contestant on this year’s series to be evicted.
Months after the reality series titan returned on ITV, the celebrity version has been resurrected in the hopes of emulating the success of the latest civilian series, which was won by Jordan Sangha in November.
Surviving contestants include X Factor judge Louis Walsh– who has already shocked viewers with an “incredibly rude” comment – Love Island winner Ekin-Su and Strictly Come Dancing professional Nikita Kuzmin.
In the latest episode, Sharon Osbourne, who was in the series as a “celebrity lodger”, left the CBB house. She was only planned to be in the series for several days and was given a private en-suite bedroom separate from the rest of the housemates.
As for the eviction, it was between Fern Britton, Louis Walsh and Lauren Simon, but it was the Real Housewives of Cheshire star who was voted off.
Meanwhile, Louis launched a scathing attack on the pop duo Jedward, calling them “vile”, and he later made several comments about Ronan Keating.

Zeze, Lauren and Louis are the three housemates with the most nominations
Big Brother reveals that Sharon has been watching all the nominations and gives her the power to save one housemate from the public vote.
To the group’s surprise, she chooses Zeze “because Lauren’s been here before... and she can take it, she’s a big girl. And, I think the public will save Lou-Lou.”
That’s all, folks. After Sharon saved Zeze and replaced her on the chopping block with Fern Britton, either Fern, Lauren or Louis will be evicted from the Big Brother house on Tuesday evening.
