Former Baywatch star Jeremy Jackson has been ejected from Celebrity Big Brother.
After drinking a mixture of rum and vodka, the actor was sick in the bathroom where he was helped by housemate Chloe Goodman. The glamour model was suddenly heard to say “that’s not OK, I’m leaving now”, before leaving the room in tears.
Goodman said: "He went to my dressing grown top and put my boob out."
The incident itself was not broadcast when the Channel 5 show showed the aftermath of the incident in Saturday night's show.
Big Brother's Bit On The Side presenter Rylan tweeted: "Due to EXPLOSIVE events in the @bbuk house, tonight's episode will now air on @channel5_tv at 10pm. More to follow."
Jackson at first defended himself, telling the housemates he "didn't know she had nothing on underneath" the robe.
After the incident, which took place on Friday, producers arranged for Jackson to sleep in a separate area.
However, they decided to remove him the following day, calling his behaviour "wholly unacceptable".
"I made a mistake and now I'm in boiling water for it," Jackson said.
Fellow contestant Perez Hilton, a celebrity blogger, had questioned the wisdom of Jackson participating in the show, saying that the actor was not "mentally stable" and "borderline scary".
Former Coronation Street star Ken Morley was also given a formal warning for using "unacceptable language" after he used the word "negro" and made comments about looking at "women's a**es".
